Playing like the house band for a gallows humor carnival, The Venetia Fair’s new album, Every Sick, Disgusting Thought We’ve Got In Our Brain is a 49 minute roller coaster ride that starts off with “Too Late To Dream,” – its orchestral drums and somewhat Mariachi-style trumpet segueing into absolute mayhem.
