Dublin’s Velourias release new single, “Taxidermist” + music video
Fusing alternative rock, post-punk, indie, and hardcore, what results is a striking, robust sound and an unforgettable energy in the new single.
VELOURIAS is a powerful Dublin trio comprised of Phil (Guitar and Vocals), Rob (Bass and Vocals), and Nick (Drums).
New single, "Taxidermist," is a captivating blend of the band's core musical influences, reminiscent of Joy Division's "Shadow Play" and the "Holy Bible" era of Manic Street Preachers. Exuding a dark and foreboding atmosphere, the single is an intense one - encompassing the band's heavy, thundering alternative sound in all its glory.
Recorded and mixed by Velourias and James Kenosha, and completed with a brooding music video directed by Miles Davis Murphy, "Taxidermist" is an immersive single from the critically acclaimed trio. Currently working on an upcoming album scheduled for release next year, Velourias have a huge 2025 in store, with "Taxidermist" solidifying their place as an unmissable band in the Irish alternative rock scene.
With PR done by yours truly, this is one of our favourite track’s we’ve ever had the pleasure to promote, and one of our top single’s for 2024. Velourias keep it simple, but keep it heavy, and keep it good. The visually stripped-back music video puts the musician’s themselves centre stage, commanding the room from the get-go.
