Venus Syndrome will be releasing their sophomore album “Cannibal Star” on October 22nd, via Rockshots Records.

In preview to its release, the progressive metal group is sharing their second single “Sun Inside Me” with a new music video

“This tune is very original for Venus Syndrome with low vocals and a very groovy chorus, the starting riff is very powerful, a space musical break, and a truly inspired guitar solo. It’s a philosophical song and at the same time quite raw which speaks of passionate people…,” adds the band.

Formed originally as a Dream Theater cover band under the moniker MetroTheater, it wasn’t too soon after that drummer Thibaud Pontet (Eternal Flight), guitarist Ayman Mokdad (Alien Encounters), keyboardist Rodolfo Lima Sproesser (Goiana, Tahra, Heretic, Floyd Rose cover Pink Floyd), bassist Florian Guidat and vocalist Emmanuelson (Ellipsis, Rising Steel, Hydroflame) were keen to create something more.

It came under the suggestion of main composer and guitarist Ayman Mokdad to the rest of the band that he had written original material inspired by the concept of the “Venus Syndrome”, in which the Earth undergoes runaway warming and the oceans boil off and is viewed as the greatest threat to humanity’s existence (more info here).

From those lyrical and musical ideals, Venus Syndrome offered up their self-titled debut album during April 2020 all while being an international collaboration between musicians on two sides of the globe. Rodolfo Lima Sproesser is based in Brazilian while the rest of the group is in France.
Carefully crafting power melodies, intricate hard rocking rhythms and soaring vocals inspired by the likes of Russell Allen (Symphony X), Warrel Dane (Nevermore) and Ray Adler (Fates Warning), the band is ready to introduce their next recording and the sophomore full-length “Cannibal Star”.

Recruiting Simone Mularoni (Domination Studio, Ultra-Violence, T/L Rhapsody, Eternal Idol, Eldritch, Elvenking) for mixing and mastering, the new album is a more mature production compared to their self-recorded effort. On “Cannibal Star”, Venus Syndrome showcases eleven tracks for fans to not just enjoy its melodic progressive metal groove, but also go beyond the listening experience and understand the message behind their music.
“Humanity will disappear if each one of us, each individual do not contribute to safeguarding it. Art, and particularly music is a healer and can help us reach the target and build something strong for our kids and their kids hopefully.” says guitarist and composer Ayman Mokdad.
The band decided on the tracks not just on record, but how they would be best performed for a memorable live experience and the importance of its messaging for saving our planet and humanity.

“There’s an amazing live show that goes with these songs, that’s why there is an instrumental ouverture, an instrumental interlude, and an ending part on the song “Contaminate Me” that we can play with the audience for several minutes. They can expect all the energy and power of the universe. We want them to sing our songs long after the show.”

singer Ricky DC comments about the new single ” ‘Walking Backwards’ is an intense anthem scratching the itch of the spots where we feel guilty and imperfect, as it talks about walking in circles and find ourselves with our feet where we already failed and made mistakes, but it’s a necessary condition to do it over again to feel human, to know we can fail and fall, and doing it in good (or bad) company validates the process”.

guitarist Diego Angeli adds:
“Musically-wise it presents all the facets of the BHG sound: powerful and proggy riffs, haunting vocals, pounding drums and bass, acoustic guitars, hypnotic and dreamy layers of keyboards and synths. It really represents the perfect synthesis of our sound and for this reason we felt it was the ideal opening song for the album and first single, the right way to introduce new listeners to our world, and to let established fans feel immediately at home”

Produced by the talented Giuseppe “Dualized” Bassi (Fear Factory, Machine Head) at Dysfunction Production, with their sophomore effort “Due” set to be released in early 2021 by Rockshots Records, Blue Hour Ghosts are ready to unleash another fresh, powerful and intense melodic assault, set to take any listener by the storm and to conquer an even larger share of music lovers.
