Infiltrating fans with infectious tunes since their foundation in 2017, Enemy Inside are set to add a fresh can load of fuel to their heavily rocking fire with their new album “Venom,” which is due out on February 28, 2025 through Reigning Phoenix Music (RPM).

Frontwoman Nastassja Giulia shares: “This album is about evolution. It captures where we are as a band now while staying open to what’s next. “Venom” feels like our most authentic work yet.”
Their most daring and energizing effort delivers eleven tracks and sees the band venture into heavier, more intricate territories, blending metalcore, industrial, and modern rock influences. While Enemy Inside‘s own guitarist Evan K oversaw the members tracking their parts and produced “Venom” at Epsilon Studio, Christoph Wieczorek (Sawdust Recordings; ANNISOKAY) laid his skillful mixing and mastering touches on the record.
“We feel that we’ve really found our sound now but that doesn’t mean it has to be the same on the next album,” Nastassja confirms. “I think it’s important to understand that a band wants to evolve and develop musically and it’s ultimately entitled to make the music they want to make as a creative collective – and that’s what this album stands for: We wanted to keep our catchy melodies while incorporating more breakdowns and harsh vocals without setting ourselves any stylistic limits.”
Starting with its high-octane title track, the highlight-studded album lets the group’s recent singles — their Halloween smash hit ‘Fuck That Party [feat. Zak Tell of CLAWFINGER],’ the sensitising ‘Should Have Known Better,’ the Japan/anime driven power track ‘Sayonara,’ as well as the almost ballad-esque ‘What We Used To Be’ — shine in an even brighter light as part of the “Venom” flow. But that’s not all: With Mirza Radonjica (‘Dirt On My Name’), the singer of Denmark’s SIAMESE, and the very own Davey Suicide (‘I’d Rather Be Dead’), two more outstanding musicians lent their vocals to the majesty that the album is.
“Venom” has become a piece of variety but of uniformity at the same time, and it only waits to be finally discovered by the band’s steadily built fan base.
