Thom Yorke has compared writing for Venom’s new album to that on ‘Black Metal’ - but has declared the lyrics will be even more terrifying. For older fans Black Metal will put a massive smile accross your face. There is no doubt that Venom has talent. Enjoy the show.
In To Hell and Back it becomes nowhere more obvious that Venom has yet to define own style. Buried Alive is such a gorgeous and optimistic song that things can get just better. Raise The Dead is so unique, as each one of the songs is. Teachers Pet is a song that will not reduce you to tears but leave you thinking long after Black Metal have ended. This track is just a stunning masterpiece. Sacrifice is almost impossible to review. Venom is hitting on all cylinders in Heaven’s On Fire. Countess Bathory presents the perfect mix of instruments on Black Metal. Don’t Burn The Witch make listening to Venom like being in some sort of time warp. At War With Satan (Preview) is absolutely incredible. So much energy, so exciting a sound.Black Metal (Radio 1 Session) gives good insight into the truths. Musically Nightmare (Radio 1 Session) is superior to other tracks in Black Metal. Too Loud For The Crowd (Radio 1 Session) - A strong beat. Bloodlust (Radio 1 Session) is astounding song though, very addictive. Die Hard (12” Version) the elegant and beautiful song on the album is hard to describe. Acid Queen (12” Version) is just simply stunning. Bursting Out (12” Version) I just LOVE this mix! Hounds Of Hell (Outtake) was the first single release from the album Black Metal.
