Hi all you friends of the dark and heavy beats out there,

 

Our new album is called ‘Nothing compares to Metal’. As on the first three albums of the new era, Jutta and Holger have composed all the songs. The album is a continuation of our concept with lyrics about classical, poetic and mythical themes. For Velvet Viper it is very important to create music which reflects our mentality and our creative freedom, because the world need originals, not copies. For the very first time we also have a song with German lyrics (on the CD version), which is a private little statement from Jutta. The songs are all 5, 6 or 7 minutes long, because we felt that they need enough space to evolve, with different parts and complex structuring to create the drama we want our music to convey.

We have chosen a natural old-school sound with only some little sprinkles of keyboard here and there, and thus we tried to capture our live sound that we love so much. We have toured and recorded with an unchanged lineup for several years now and really nailed our style of music this time with crushing beats and great melodies.

 

Stay heavy and we will see you out there on the dark roads!
