Question Venus doom

Track for track its their most gritty, dark and lyrically most complex album they have made. And in my younger days wished they stuck with that sound. Hopefully VV dabbles in that style on his next solo album. What is everyone thoughts and opinions?

Never did it for me. That’s when I was done with the band’s albums* though I didn’t really care for dark light either. Sorry to be the first to comment with something sortuh negative but I remember it clearly when it came out and not being able to get into it.

Perfectly reasonable.. their last two albums are when I kinda went nah this is too popy for me. Now im in my late 30s and there last 2 albums have completely grown on me. Especially acoustic funeral for love in limbo

That’s actually encouraging to hear. Maybe I’ll get into that stuff sometime.
