Metal Black

Venom

A deliberate return to the raw, unpolished chaos of the early eighties. Distorted, loud, and unapologetically abrasive speed metal.

March 24, 2006 · Diablo Recording

Relentless, confrontational energy with a stubborn commitment to sonic ugliness.

Moments Worth Listening For
The opening feedback of Antechrist that slams into a relentless d-beat rhythm.
The mid-tempo sludge of Maleficarum that stretches the band's typical speed into a suffocating crawl.
The title track's closing moments where the guitars dissolve into a cacophony of pure noise.
Where This Album DepartsEach spoke is a trait. The orange shape shows where this album pulls away from — or holds to — the rest of the artist’s catalogue. Tap for more.
