venom,at war with satan,part 1

[txhomeboy214]

why do christians get all up tight..? quit trying to think your mentality is justified.. a real christian wouldn't try to condemn sinners, they would be non judgmental.. your message turns off the masses... by the way, im not a satanist... i dont consider myself christian...but I do believe in a divine being that is not a harsh scary God.. let humans be and quit policing people to live under your doctrine!

[witchbroom22]

had the casette tape and this beginning is on it

[diptdipt]

In all this game, the devil is the victim, is the scapegoat, will be acused of everything cause the GOD don’t want any rivals. Conclusion: live at the full in the freedom of GOD (praying in a right form,following the INSTRUCTIONS in the Bible - keeping the 10 commandments - including keeping the Saturday as the 7th day etc.) instead of in the incapacity and limited power of devil cause he is just a temporary puppet. Jesus Christ is our savior and our hope!

[Ghostblood1334]

@diptdipt Read the satanic bible, its pretty saying the same thing you just said. Except with impowering yourself with the freedom of satan instead of god. There are always to sides to an argument. I do say, live life to the fullest. The hell with god, the hell with satan. BTW am not an atheist, nor satanist, nor christian. I just seek truth and knowledge....

[363Magi]

@ggriffinn1 there at war -WITH- Satan not against him. Double meaning yea know? : /

[pstarsoulannoyed]

satans music sucks .......Im going with Jesus.......at least he has real music

[ThazuaBlackarrow]

@pstarsoulannoyed This is real music.

But 80's Christian Metal is pretty good. None of the Stryper shit, of course, more of the Saint or Trouble variety.

[Ghostblood1334]

@pstarsoulannoyed Jesus sucks balls, Satan has better music.

[Ghostblood1334]

@pstarsoulannoyed Jesus sucks balls, Satan has better music.

[figumorisca]

Excellent, it was since the album was released that I was wondering about the speech. Thank you, much appreciated.

[hppyslayerday]

Remember this was the intro to their next album ?

[666Valium666]

Q chimba de tema!!!! At wat with satan!!!!!

[boazandjiacinth]

@ggriffinn1 fuk satanus, we all he get flogged on the end...he he good intentions pave the road to hell?

[MouthOfTheUnknown]

I LOVE the spoken intro!!!!!!!!!

[basementdweller1]

@ggriffinn1 Philosoraptor has spoken....

[toastedtesticles]

ha, I love the tremolo picking at 7:00. if this didn't influence TNBM, I odn't know what did.

[danwanner47]

to bad slayer sucks compaired to venom

[SlayerAwaits1]

@danwanner47 to bad you suck fag

[ExtremeBogom]

Man this is vicious.

[KlarKman1000]

Just realized after listenin to Slayer Hell Awaits - Hardening Of the arteries this sound so simlar to that, lol bein a slayer fan i would say venom ripped off slayer but thats impossible sein as this album was released a year before Hell Awaits lol :)

[VindictivePheasant]

@KlarKman1000 There is no "ripping off" unless it sounds exactly the same.

[KlarKman1000]

Venom are fuckin awesome, but still i wil lalways prefer slayer.

(Fucking sadistic scream at 2:08)

[dungeon666666]

OMS the thunder at the end cuts off him saying"at war with satan" WTF

[kimjuuljensen]

Just got this album on vinyl today. Venom are fucking awesome. Real oldschool thrash metal with satanic lyrics. Hail Cronos, Mantas and Abbadon. Up the horns!!!!!!!!!

[L3O1994]

basementdweller1 how did you get the narration at the beginning... usually most at war with satan vids are just the bass intro

[basementdweller1]

@L3O1994 The best thing for you to do is just download this video (as well as the other "At war with satan" posts I have). I haven't found this version anywhere else on the web. It's the complete re-edited master version that venom didn't release until much, much later.

[GEDAnkew]

20 Mins of Pure Epicness!

[truewarriorgod10000]

@Ignorant05 YEAHHH helloween!!! who says you can't like black/thrash metal AND power metal?

[kzbxvz]

The longest (20 min) black metal hit ever.

[cubby3o5]

this is the longest thrash metal song ever.

[MartianGhost7]

Cool song. Btw, who would win, in a fight of course - Santa Claus, Satan, The Easter Bunny, or Marvin The Martian?

My money is on Marvin The Martian.

[Sanjaysgranny]

@MartianGhost7 hmm.. I'd have to put my money on santa claus

[Michaelslayer1]

the best song of venom

[toadman842]

Chronos is my freind, we eat lunch togeather on work break at Best Buy... Egg salad sandwiches.

[idrinkredwine]

Does anyone have a link to Cronos' onstage rants? I hear they're classic.

[creepingdeath171]

just got introduced to venom and two words.....HOLY SHIT

[bassistdave109]

who holds the keys to the 7 gates?

[boazandjiacinth]

@bassistdave109 abaddon.

[bassistdave109]

@boazandjiacinth mozeltof cocktails.

[arvinfajardo21]

HAIL VENOM !!! FUCK SATAN !!!

[suchadambidiot]

@arvinfajardo21 isnt that a contradiction there?

[MKJS006]

@arvinfajardo21 I already did...her name was Veronica Rezentes Smith

[baranflake]

i just shit a brick and smashed it in my face to make sure this is real :((((((

[TEMPmichaelhansen]

The inspiration for writing a track comprising an entire side of the album came from Rush's 2112, one of bassist Conrad Lant's favourite albums of all time.

[idrinkredwine]

Yeah, I'm smoking crack. HAIL SATAN!

[KostasNast666]

venom is the first clear blaxk metal band.they were the first who had clearly satanic lyrics in their song.

[idrinkredwine]

I've been searching for this tape for years. Quite the social phenomenon this band was, and continues to be. Few bands have proven that one can suck, be overly loud, completely self-parodic and still be awesome and adored by fans worldwide. The germs did it, the sex pistols tried it, spinal tap perfected it and today Small's "Dethklok" keeps the torch burning. Why? Because that's rock and roll, baby.

[bassistdave109]

@idrinkredwine are you smoking crack?

[zjfox43]

This song is so awesome. I love the last line. Being am Antichrist I have to love this song. Hate me for it, I don't care. I love my girl, and she is hated by God though she is perfect. So, only choice is to hate Christianity for hating the good people. :)

[lassi666]

@zjfox43 oh my god, are you the gayest dude(?) ever?

[TheGXSoft]

Satan is your master justin bieber..... DEATH, BLACK, THRASH METAL FOREVEEEEEEERRRRRRRR!!!!

[Sanisaninja]

anyone else reminded of Slayer here?

[sfusyron]

Man I used to have this tape.

[metalloveman]

@Ignorant05 you good sir are win

[SleepingDogification]

Coming up folks

pretty soon now

[Guitarbro221]

The beginning speech sounds like something from warcraft 2 lol

[MasterChef0102]

WTF, WHY WOULD ANY HUMAN WANT TO LISTEN TO THIS

[DWGarvin]

This is awesome. Thanks for putting this up here!

[boazandjiacinth]

all good, except, HTE CREATURE DIES!!!arrrgghhhh, GOD made death, NOW BECOME IT...

[SleepingDogification]

I'll fight

[billgeezeriommi]

this is my favorite venom song

[michaelz6366]

@Ignorant05 lmao

[MultiJoan1988]

satan sucks dick HAIL VENOM awsome metal of my time 

[basementdweller1]

lol

[drifter696969]

Epic blackness...

[emilio124567]

u gota admit it still is scary but thats what makes it fun

[salemustbedestroyed]

is this the original version? the verson i downloaded dosen't have the monologue at the begining

[basementdweller1]

@salemustbedestroyed

This is venoms full uncut version totaling a little over 21 minutes. The original full version is 19, the cut version in about 6.

[ManiacSerialKilleR]

Reminds me of doom3

[24121945]

Daemon est deus inversus!

[ThazuaBlackarrow]

@TheNocturnalSilence Ya les hate on Punk and ignore its many many admireable qualities that both influenced and helped Metal evolve.

Without the Punk Thrash would be a lot weaker than that which we know and love now.

Just listen to the simplistic riffs and harsh, aggressive vocals of Venom. It SCREAMS Punk.

Punk-hating Metalheads are almost as bad as posers. Especially when they love bands that are obviously and hugely influenced by Punk.

[petasucks1]

@ThazuaBlackarrow well put man. not only musically but we wouldn't have mosh pits if it weren't for punk lol

[McMaggara]

46 666th viewer Hell yeah \m/

[princesparky]

who cares about SATAN OR GOD... FUCK THEM BOTH... every man must think for themselves... But venom fucking rocks..... if you want EVIL go to Netherlands black metal.... NOW THAT IS FUCKING EVIL.........

[friboledo]

pfffff, satan... this music is loose, go to satan poverty, he deserves it, i will good metal, no that, satan is toothless lion roars but can not do damage, it is impressive, but lacks power, God have a good metal!! look stryper or as i lay dying, megadeth with the endgame.... bless the lord!!!

[rllang01]

these guys still kick ass !

[Minestroogo]

VENOM ROCKS

[tomppa1974]

Sad that this great song is too long for youtube, to show in one whole part. Long Live Cronos, Mantas and Abaddon!!!!!!!! HAIL

[thecorpse70]

sounds as fucking good now as it did all those years ago when it was released.love that bass line

[mkuzyk]

love venom but lets draw a few comparisons here. what other metal band from england do you know of that draws heavily on satanic imagery and lyrics? ithink there is a reason why i followed this band as a teenager. thats cause i followed the same band as a kid. they are callled BLACK FUCKING SABATTH! Dont forget the masters. HAIL SATAN.

[sighnofthetimes]

@mkuzyk Yea, but when Ozzy sang about satan and other evil things, he'd always spoil it by going "Oh no, no please God, help me!" Or something along those lines, Venom (Or Cronos to be exact), were one of the first bands to really adopt truely evil (though cheesy) subjects in their songs.

[HLandKM4ever]

heaven's hell god has fell sound the knell!!

[mkuzyk]

what?

[stalloneamerica]

ROTFLMFAO!!! The comments LOL just can't get over them...

[yak45900]

Was this song ever played live? On the bootlegs I've heard, these guys could barely get through their 3 minute tracks.

[HLandKM4ever]

VENOM!!! Cronos is wicken JUST SO ALL YOU PEOPLE KNOW and hate if you want, there is a god and satan is real and every catholic christian and whatever *except tom araya* are all gonna fuckin die with the armageddon so live life to the full and fuck with everyone!! SATAN 666

[insaneclownicp]

LOL EXCEPT TOM ARAYA THATS AWESOME

[TheAmrator]

@insaneclownicp What about Tom?

[JimJimJimNL]

@Ignorant05

your mother holds the 7 keys!! FAGGOT AARGHfeeL MY INTERNEThaTE

[TheCreatorOfGod666]

amazing fucking song never gets boring

[devilbatbird]

FUCK THE BASTARDS!!!!!!!!

[devilbatbird]

metal rules! some of these comments are a little ridiculous...next thing you know, someone will say that KISS stands for "Knights In Satan's Service"...ridiculous....or IS IT?

mwuahahahahahahah

[Mike9042]

There is nothing wrong with believing it, in fact there is a lot of scientific evidence to support it. Although it may not of happened exactly like the bible says which is what the Catholics teach they understand that the Bible should be interpreted. Now that being said there is also fact of the opposite so I am not trying to convince he is right only that he is just in thinking that. what you should be concerned with is how he takes these lyrics seriously.

[rasc94]

For everyone who thinks this is so praising satan, listen to the end of the song. Like a good movie, this song set itself up for a sequel! And in the sequel the angels would overtake satan. I always thought this song would make an incredible fantasy adventure movie.

[basementdweller1]

I know, It's pretty much a tale of the never ending battle between heaven and hell.

[snardlefarb]

Come on now.

We're all older.

Their music scared the crap out of everyone when it came out.

Rightly so, over 25 years ago.

Can we please move on?

The world is beyond repair.

And your fighting about this.

THAT'S SCARY.

Welcome to Hell!

[jocksilver7]

no! 26 years on and I'm still scared; back in 84 this and Melissa were probably the first true BM lp I handled and they caused such an everlasting impression on me that I still listen to them today. I don't give a fuck if the world is beyond repair and back - Cronos and King Diamond are still rolling the dice, whereas Dead and Euro are in the ground and Varg is out of Summer Hill. Even Immortal are back, so there's no time to worry about the world, only unholy black metal! Hell ya! \m/

[snardlefarb]

i stand corrected. especially since you invoked Mercyful Fate. these records scared all my friends. several felt compelled to try to burn them.

these were not mainstream people.

this music was THAT scary.

still holds up, no?

stand up and be counted.

[decentdrummer911]

Wow......this song is so evil and wrong...I am truly saddened that people are this deceived :(.

[ChildoftheThrash]

@decentdrummer911 WRONG, this song is AWESOME :D Ya don't like it then fuck off kthx :)

[Lasterious]

Oh fuck off

[dgoss1966]

While I understand your concern (it's not a particularly uplifting message), it's important to note that Venom have their tongues FIRMLY in cheek when they recorded all this stuff. It's theater, not unlike KISS, Alice Cooper, Gwar etc. How the listener receives it is up to them. THAT is the nature of the free will covenant that so many Christians speak of. The world can be an ugly disheartening place, but that doesn't mean you need to sink beneath your worries. Loosen up a little.

[ThePoop1579]

Venom

Music for those on Angel Dust, Laying down the souls to the gods rock and roll, While Being In League with Satan, and crying out to all posers Welcome to hell

[johnsdeath]

spoken intro is awesome!!!

[satanas66688]

MAN GOOD WORK

TANX 4 THIS

[basementdweller1]

Thank you

[SageofCancer]

Brutal. Thank you for uploading.

[3HuNtEr8]

how did you get the version with spoken intro?

[basementdweller1]

This is the full, uncut 21 minute long version.

[3HuNtEr8]

its just that i can't find this version any where

[basementdweller1]

try ares (bittorrent), if you want an actual vinyl go to discogs.

[Miltn72]

i remember when i first heard this song back in '86. i said what am i listening to!! the lyrics scared me a little, being so dark. now i don't care. i just crank it up.

[MetalDeprival]

I wrote this comment because you said punk is for inferior. Maybe i made a mistake, i'm sorry!

[MetalDeprival]

Are you drunk?

[mariaraver92]

You can't deny that these guys know what they're doing when it comes to lyrics

[MomanROTR09]

Thank you, sir. You have expressed the true opinion of most metalheads here. Fuck the haters and HAIL VENOM!

[Miciochecanta]

best intro ever

[hittitte]

the whole 20 minute version would make an interesting cover

[robertdicruz]

venom rulers!!!!!!!!!!

[jocksilver7]

venom rubbers!

[basementdweller1]

Okay, do better.

[yumrocket10]

do you belive in God?

hes chained up like a dog

and every hour he screams

SATAN RULES SUPREME!!

VENOM FUCKIN ROCKS

[monkeymagoo47]

"Evil?" "evil" is what you define as such. To us, this isn't evil, because its JUST MUSIC. You're the one who makes it evil.

[Jarmul666]

@monkeymagoo47 its not just music and its not Evil... Satan is freedom Evil is yours religion.

[monkeymagoo47]

Hey can someone upload the song "Aaaaargghh?"

[MANSONRULZ54]

man this is epic

[23Seana]

TOTALLY WICKED... LOVELY

[bradmasterflex]

man i remember this shit back in the day if only i could turn back the clock good times good times

[basementdweller1]

Really? i didn't know they did that. I'm gonna go check that out now.

[mariaraver92]

i remember when Venom first came about,i went around with a t-shirt on with satan on.They still sound good today,and their lyrics are awesome

[Astarothcito]

I herd it alive... Venom was here and is the fuckin' best band i all the fuckin' world!!!

AT WAR WITH SATAN!!

[aliennomad]

VENOM RULES! This is definatly there best album!

[csehszlovakze]

my favourite Venom album! Welcome to Hell and Black Metal are both good, but sightly overrated (mainly among first-wave black metallers)

[3666Overtkiller6663]

5/5 TOTALLY THRASH METAL!!

[themetalman34]

20 minutes...

[GurrolaBread]

exactly slayer has anti christian lyrics too but those guys arent satanic either

[Defenders0fCreation]

music isnt evil. if its heavy metal, it doesnt make it satanic. what makes anything satanic is the actual practice of it.

so basically...the only satanic thing about this music would be the band members themselves....and i dont even know if they are really satanic or not so who knows...could be just for show. but the point remains. no matter what the music is...it doesnt make it evil...

[decentdrummer911]

You are wrong...this song is definitely evil and satanic. It talks about the downfall of heaven and how Satan is going to be victorious...which obviously isn't true.

[basementdweller1]

I don't think you should take much offense to this type of music, thats just silly.

[decentdrummer911]

Oh I do, lol. The guy who made these lyrics is actually deceived enough to think that Satan is going to win the last war? LOL!

[fodmunkio]

@decentdrummer911 Chuck Norris will win the final war.

[Defenders0fCreation]

1st of all..im saddened by the fact that you actually went digging through multiple levels of coments just to find one to respond to. and 2ndly...your a jackass...im a christian..and i play heavy metal like a mad mother fucker....doesnt make me satanic...and dont cop some holier than thou bs....if you dont want to hear it. then dont look up venom...figure it out....and since i can already tell your some troll im going to leave this conversation at that...cause i know you could argue 24/7...

[basementdweller1]

No more evil than Halloween or the boogey man.

If anything all I've seen this music do is good. People like to escape into their music, as an outlet. Some people have to put up with a lot of things, and if it wasn't for that outlet who knows what would happen.

So no it's not evil. sometimes it's just down right comical, for the fact that some people take it serious and make a big deal out of it.

[venomike]

almost 30 years of venom: priceless

[BaBYPuNCheR133]

I'm 15 and this is the first time I have ever heard Venom.Phil Anselmo mentions them a lot so I decided to look them up and this is just fucking incredible.How have I missed this for so long?

[basementdweller1]

They stayed underground throughout their entire career, thats why. One of the few metal bands today to not sell out.

[MCARM666]

I love this atmosphere =D

Venom rule!!!

[zerogravitybong]

guess all those grateful dead concerts I attended as an infant sharpened my taste in music 5/5

[kzbxvz]

A Black Metal masterpiece from 1984, nuff said?

[kzbxvz]

And over 20 minutes long, epic!!

[AppleSlayer]

I'm 666 and i love Venom since the end of time !

[erock7207]

4 the young metal fans,,,,go get ultimate revenge,,,venom,slayer,exodus,­,the best 3 bands of that era,,,and possessed is the band that start all,,,check them out too

[yourface1997]

i agree with that 100%. too bad everyone i know has no taste in music. i was brought into this music while i was like 2 or 3 and it hasnt failed to amuse me yet.

[altarman]

41, and totally agree

[jocksilver7]
