Arising Empire Media out of Germany has announced the release of two metalcore artist singles.Venus “Hollow Walls” and Vicious Rain “A Spotless Mind”.
Venus with their latest single in February 2026, “Hollow Walls”, which is a continuation of a journey of the song “Duality” which was released in October of 2025. “Hollow Walls” is a direct sequel following “Duality” in an emotional and visual way by continuing to expand the atmosphere into darker territory. The cracks on the surface are no longer subtle; they’re breaking wide open. Where there was tension before has now turned to confrontation as the place they are in collapses. “Hollow Walls” feels urgent, restless, and uncomfortably honest. “Duality”, it was the warning shot, and “Hollow Walls” is the fall out; it’s the next chapter in the journey.
With a rich storyline told with passion of the journey in her voice, Lela Gruber with Robin Baumann echoing her passion, they bring a unique and driven spirit to what is happening. As these two songs stack on top of each other, let hope the story continues with their next single. To understand Venus, my suggestion is to follow these links.
