Vennart in live Retaliate video

Vennart have released a live video for their track Retaliate.

It’s taken from former Oceansize man and current Biffy Clyro touring guitarist Mike Vennart’s solo album, The Demon Joke, which was launched last month.

He recently said: “I’ve made a record that’s not far removed from what Oceansize was – and I’m okay with that.”

Vennart last month released an animated video for Operate. The Demon Joke is available via Superball Music. They appear live over the coming weeks:

July 10: Leeds Brudenell Games Room

July 11: Cheltenham 2000 Trees Festival

Aug 19: Leicester Firebug (with British Theatre)

Aug 20: Colchester Arts Centre (with British Theatre)

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
