South Wales, United Kingdom-based death metal group Venom Prison issued second full-length studio album Samsara<\/em> on March 15th, 2019 through Prosthetic Records.<\/p>\n

Samsara<\/em>\u2019s title refers to the Buddhist concept of being reborn into a never-ending cycle of suffering. \u201cThemes and topics explored in the album\u2019s lyrics are more personal than on their debut, Animus<\/em>,\u201d states an accompanying press release. \u201cVocalist, Larissa Stupar, examines her own interpretation and experiences of suffering, as well as navigating broader societal concepts. It is a political thread of fury that delivers a lashing in the direction of human trafficking, capital punishment, and – as in the case of the first single, \u2018Uterine Industrialisation\u2019 – forced surrogacy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Samsara<\/em> was recorded with producers Tom Dring and Arthur Rizk in the summer of 2018 at Vagrant Studio in Southport, England.<\/p>\n

An official video featuring behind-the-scenes studio footage from the making of the album can be viewed below.<\/p>\n

Cover artwork duties fell to Eliran Kantor.<\/p>\n
