Overview

Oceans of Venus was released in 2002 on Pure Stirling Records. Proceeded by Rachel Stamp's highest charting single to date, "Black Cherry", the album was met with critical acclaim from the music press and some mixed feelings from fans that wanted an album similar to the raw, glam pop of the debut, "Hymns for Strange Children". The album has also been released in Germany (through Sony Music) and in the United States of America (through Captiva Records/Underground Inc). "Oceans of Venus" has sold over 25,000 copies in the UK alone.

Facts

  • Released through Underground Inc./Captiva and distributed across America by Caroline Records.
  • Originally planned to be a re-release of the UK edition with the same artwork as the Limited Edition version. Brand new artwork was drawn up from scratch by Vania Zouravilov and David Ryder-Prangley due to another artist using similar artwork.
  • The tracks that had previously been added to “Oceans of Venus” were removed for this version as “it was not the album we had made, and although "My Sweet Rose" and "Heroine" are fabulous songs (which is why they were added), the album is only proper without.” – David Ryder-Prangley, 2003
