It’s hard to believe that “Venus In Furs” was recorded as early as 1967, it feels like it should be at least a decade later than that. It’s hardly an original opinion, but The Velvet Underground were so far ahead of their time, it’s like they were from a different world. In fact, “Venus In Furs” kind of sounds like it was recorded in some time separate from ours altogether. Dark, brooding and sinister, “Venus In Furs” sounds like beginning of the end and is the perfect soundtrack for a spooky, windy day like today.
