about

Dan Shears & The Velveteen Orkestra present this deep, dark and passionate debut record entitled 'The Eternal Mystery of the Human Heart', a reference to a Ludwig Wittgenstein quote. This six-track (or "Acts" as they are referred to on the album sleeve) EP is a stunning introduction to a British band who have been earmarked for big things in 2011.

This opening installment precedes the band's first album, 'Take Up Arms', and gives a peering look into what to expect from the epic 12-piece; an angelic voice taking wing above a surging ocean of orchestral sound and intensely dark and passionate songs with a visceral lyrical style. This debut EP tells tales of passion, hurt, murder and love against a horrific, apocalyptic backdrop.
