Swedish band Coldspell deliver the goods again with their third album “Frozen Paradise” released via Escape Music on 20th September. The previous albums “Infinite Stargaze” (2009) and “Out From The Cold” (2009) meant that I had high expectations for the new album and I wasn’t to be disappointed. “Frozen Paradise” delivers ten excellent rock tracks that definitely hit the mark and easily qualified for an NI Rocks Recommendation!!

Venrez are a band that formed in Los Angeles in 2010 after some well established musicians came together almost by chance. The band toured extensively, including dates in Europe and released their first album “Sell The Lie” to great reviews. By 2012 the band was supporting rock legends Alice Cooper and Slash on tour. Their second album "American Illusion" was released earlier this year and it was recently announced that Venrez would be supporting Buckcherry and Hardcore Superstar on tour across Europe. This includes gigs in The Limelight in Belfast on 27th November and Academy in Dublin on 29th November.
The band consists of Steven Berez (or Ven) on vocals, Jason Womack on lead guitars & vocal, Alex Kane on guitar, Michael Bradford on bass and Ed Davis on drums. Lead singer Ven answered some questions for us recently.
