There was a time in the nineties when we thought that Swedes have melodic punk as class in school with so many bands coming from that country. Venerea are veterans of melodic skatepunk/hardcore and they recently released their new full length. Yes, you guessed it, the Swedes play melodic skatepunk hardcore with superb vocal lines, fantastic harmonies and anthemic songwriting, not unlike Satanic Surfers, if I must compare them to some band. Songs like Rise With The Tide, No Rules But My Rules, Living It For The Moment are sure to win you over with awesome musicianship and songs that just make you wanna listen to them over and over again. This is for sure one of the best releases in this genre to come out this year.

Thanks so much for the great review! I’d just like to mention that this is an odds & sods sampler of comp-, bonus-, & vinyl only tracks from the mid-nineties on, & that our actual new record (featuring guest vocal spots by friends from No Fun At All, Millencolin & Adhesive) is currently being mixed for an early 2022 release. Hope you get to hear that one too; it’s a banger if I may say so myself! / Mike (Venerea)
