after listening to it three times it has made my 2019 chart at #16
it really does take three-four listens to sink in. i nearly didn't listen to it a second time... just doesn't have any immediacy to it. but yeah, it's a fantastic record. _________________ follow me on the bandcamp.

Weirdly enough despite their infamy, Venom still do not get enough credit. They created this sound. The sound of all extreme metal. They made music that was willfully evil. Ugly. Brutal. And they did it on purpose. Were they best players. Hell no. But they were bloody, unhinged visionaries which is worth so much more. They were willing to tear down all that came before. They took Motorhead and Priest licks & riffs ripped them to shreds, chewed them apart, stretched them too thin and then spat them out from the grave. They were filthy, putrid, and vile. And they made sure that you knew they loved every minute of it. The guitar solos are some of the most influential in metal history, and you can hear their echos in Slayer’s early albums.
Nowadays their sound is called Black n’ Roll and you can still hear their influence on such killer bands as Midnight.
Influences: Motorhead. Motorhead. Motorhead. Priest. (Motorhead's Overkill is pretty much essential listening for this stuff.)
