  • This is the best live video of Venom I've ever seen. I've seen them live and the sound was quite muddy. This is a rare find, I would love to own it. What is the source?

  • @rad376 How much rap you heard? Saying rap sucks is like listening to Nickleback and saying metal sucks. Take the time to listen to "Tech N9ne--rock n roll nigga" and see if that changes your mind any. I'd also HIGHLY recommend King Gordy. You're only out 3-4 minutes if you don't like it.

  • listen 2 rammstien. best band ever.

  • CRONOS, RABID CAPTOR AND MASTER OF BEASTIAL MALEVOLENCE Approves of this...LAY DOWN YOUR SOUL TO THE GODS ROCK N ROLL !!!

  • 'WHY IS THIS VERSION NOT ON CD? This is genius.  The devils chainsaw guitar sound, the blast beats, Cronos' balls in a vise vocals, and most of all the Dario Argento lighting. The overly saturated reds and yellows make this video a work of pure horror genius. The effect at 2:14 is just brilliant: Cronos pukes his vocals into the elevated mic while the Argento lighting effects highlight his demonic form. I wonder if Venom were consciously trying to duplicate Argentos lighting style in this.

  • @SCROGY the whole welcome to hell album should of had that badass guitar tone

  • @BlackDiamond77100 YESSSSS!!!! This version is so much better, faster and that guitar sound just makes the chills go up my spine. Pure horror.......makes you wonder how good Welcome to Hell would be if Venom had rerecoreded the whole album in say 1984.

  • ...για τον πούτσο καβάλα...

  • hell breaks loose,,,i hate my doctor,,,,need pain killers,,they are good

  • I remember the day in the 80's when my mates and me,first saw this,we said WTF,BRILLIANT!! .we watched it over and over for hours. then i found the ULTIMATE REVENGE video,and apart from exodus,liked that too.

    nobody can compare VEMON,and also BATHORYs first 3 albums to anybody else..they were unique. who are the 20 who disliked it?

  • Panter shud never be compared to the greatness that is Venom , they're a MEEH band and all the shitty bands that they inspired who came after them suck dinosaur cock, if it wasnt for them, we wudnt hav crappy ass 'core music (metalcore,deathcore that type of Donkey crap)

  • @laithlaith91 I think the thrash bands of the 80's were good enough.

  • @NeverAloneForever my point was the bands coming after Pantera suck, but yes, 80s thrash bands were good enough, bands like Heathen,Coroner ,Artillery, Torture, etc. great bands

  • @laithlaith91 I can see that but what came after doesn't necessarily mean they are meh. Al the Nirvana copycats couldn't make them suck. Since Venom brought us Metallica and Slayer and the like I'd commend them but I wouldn't say it makes them better or worse.

  • Get real.PANTERA VS. VENOM??!!

    

  • @MKJS006 and  VENOM IS THE WINNER

  • @gregsmusic1 ...of course

  • WHAT SHOW IS THIS FROM?

  • I bought this video back in the 80's. It only had these two songs on it and from what I believe, they are performing on a stage just for the purpose of the video clips. It isn't actually a live concert,....... but don't quote me.

  • fucking venom.doesnt need an explanation\m/

  • what year is this? answer please...

  • All hail Count Cronos vampire supreme

  • There is no greater evil then Venom in there prime!!!

  • Right on brother. DIE HARD

  • venom kills posers

  • venom kills posers

    fuck you!!!

  • Venom is the shit!!!!Killer band thanks for posting vid.

  • love the description. its true.

  • Those one were the real hells bells.. scary beginning

  • typical venom :))

    been an all time favorite of mine since the 80's

  • uoooooooooooooh hell breaks loose!

  • Fuck off you sad cunt going on loads of metal videos and trolling

  • @TheOneTrueMetalHead A true metalhead believes that Venom was mainstream?

  • @theonetruemetalhead

    You have got to be joking. About everything. I looked at your profile and you are a complete joke. Learn what real metal is, and never fucking compare cradle of filth to venom. Let alone say venom is mainstream you "give me fuel, give me fire" metallica loving fuck.

  • i love how on almost every fucking metal vid on you tube there is some sort of faggety poser fight over what fucking bands better!!??!! NOBODY GIVES A SHIT FUCKERS!!

  • pause at 0:06

    looks like a skull with horns

  • WOOAH

  • venom is worlds best band for ever !! hail black metal gods! !

  • @andyxeno

    fuck you pantera isnt a pussy screamo shit band if you havent noticed there music is great the music that diserves to die in any possible way is rap and screamo that stuff sucks

  • @rad376. Just shows you can't read cocksmoker, aint no need to start flamin'. i said check out pantera 'cos phil anselmos scream is more like a roar unlike these[a bit faggy for me but hey thats just me] , they rocked i'm a huge fan but you just wanna start callin names like a wuss go for it just don't expect me to listen.btw where did i say pantera are a pussy screamo shit band? feel like a tit now hmmmm? well you should

  • @andyxeno i should feel like one but i dont i feel great

  • well at least you're admitting you should feel like one even if you aint got balls to admit you are out of order.

  • no no im pretty sure im outa order

  • If you were to tell Phill Anselmo that he would call you a retard. there are about one hundred pictures of him wearing Venom's Black metal t shirt. He is littered with venom patches as well.

    I am pretty sure he would site Venom as one of his biggest influences.

  • lmao you fuckin poser

  • @rad376 Pantera is good, but their siger sucks and their genre gave birth the mallcore and gay bands like slipknot. they were great in their days but left a legacy that is slowly killing the wonderful music we know as metal

  • @rad376 Screamo and rap are good. But I suppose a Panterafag wouldn't even know what "screamo" is, or know where to find good rap.

    Pantera is shitty. Groove Metal is shitty. Venom >>>>>>>> them and pretty much any other band.

  • @rad376 i hate rap,,,anyone listens to that singing poetry is a waste of life,,,and time

  • To compare Pantera to Venom is to have no idea how heavy metal evolved, it's an unfair comparison. Before Venom, all we had were Black Sabbath, Motorhead, and Judas Priest. Venom were the true pioneers of metal.

  • @andyxeno FUCK YOU. Pantera is amazing. so is Venom

  • @andyxeno just so you know PanterA is one of the most famous and best metal bands of all time... better then Venom

  • @AIC2374 Just so you know if there was no Venom there would be no Pantera. Simple. Both bands are great, but you young guys really need to understand, bands like Venom ,Slayer, Anvil, Exciter, Etc, paved the way for Pantera and other great metal bands that came later. Credit where its due kids. AND Lets not forget the godfathers of all of it, Black Fucking Sabbath, without whom we would have none of it!!!

  • @Al01burg yea i know venom helped it but still, i just said pantera is better,i said nothing about that.

    and of course Sabbath! and maiden and priest and motorhead to name some more classics

  • @AIC2374 AHAHAHAHAHA NOW YOU'RE SAYING PANTERRIBLE IS BETTER THAN VENOM?

    AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA OH GOD HOW FUCKING STUPID ARE YOU?

  • If u don't understand Venom, so fucking what?

    A big fucking deal.

    Shut up and leave.

  • I think this band was once called "The Thamesmen".

  • Venom rocks to hard for mainstreem!!! fucking Venom!!! \m/

  • bluesky.

    I think you might have some homosexual issues going on inside your head.

    Just do like Rob Halford did.

    GET OUTTA THE FUCKIN CLOSET!

  • these are my two favorite Venom songs! thanks for the post!

  • Retard...

  • This came before all those shits that came later...I was there when "Welcome to Hell" was released - nothin' like that before:they were the Evil Ones...

  • Yeh.Hail Venom. Thats power.

  • Yeh. Hail Venom. Thats power.

  • i would give my house to see them live...

  • @PUREFUCKINGMAYHEM661, i can see your point, but venom is not gay. It just isn't. I know bands like We came as romans are just destroying metal by making it all trendy and colorful. As well with Punk. Its gay. But they are real good bands like kreator, death and venom, that have balls, and you really have to acknowledge them. Like cronos said. He hates bands that talk about religion and politics, i mean you dont see a politician pick up a guitar and sing. I im sure you dont want to.

  • Dude, Venom is one of my favorite bands,if you think I'm insulting Venom in way, you've had a grand misconception of the "anti-metalcore" text listed below...The reason I re-posted that text is because I agree with the people who created it.

    Venom is one of the greatest metal bands of all time, and by far one of the most underrated.

    That text is to get peoples attention, to get metalheads to collectively say fuck metalcore and to other false trendy shit, that's why it got re posted here.

  • Ya, i know. I saw you hilarious background of those metal emos. My friend likes that crap, and i cap on him for liking it. Just another group or people trying to make true metal gay. But lemme tell you some thing. Metal is too big to destroy. They killing it with their "Screamo" crap. (as you can see, it sounds a lot like emo if you take off the scr.)

  • I don't just hate those screaming vocals but the way that they play.

  • ac23AQ

    All you guys that keep saying this band is gay? Thats a signal of your inner self, stop fighting that demon.

    Get out of the closet.

  • i never said venom is gay.

  • Fuck Yeah! VENOM 4 LIFE!

  • Well seeing how in the song, Stand up(Be Counted) they them self say they are the Black Metal gods. I think they did claim they were Black Metal

  • Iphone vid of t.v.?

  • this band kills , no one has anything on them

  • @WarheadAttack slayer can destroy them

  • Thats just amazing.

  • love the intro!!!.

  • Man who cares about genres? Its the music that matters. To me personally, Venom is a heavier version of what Misfits were doing in punk, the imagery is about the same except perhaps not as much influenced by horror flicks as by satanic and the occult.

    Venom at the heart of it, was a punk rock band that laid the template for thrash metal bands like Metallica and Slayer, who started playing more technical music than Venom. Venom were never meant to be amazing at their instruments.its attitude

  • Interesting point. I just thought a couple of minutes ago that this is what MC5 probably would have sounded like if they'd had their time ten years later. Just like Motörhead their riffs and harmonies are deeply based in classic 70s R'n'R but they're playing faster and way rawer. Awesome.

  • 32 you sound like 12

  • no, they came up with the genre they are playing and they called it thrash metal, so what you are saying is that people who come up playing "black metal" 10 years later are true black metal? venom started a unique genre and called it black metal, norweigan black metal is influensed by venom as well

  • yeahhhhh black metal rules!!!

  • is this the canadian or american assault?

  • black metal is true

  • kronos..the legend

  • i was gonna relase a bass cover of both these songs but unfortunetly UMG has baught sancturay records so i cant now, but ill be uploading them somewere else so stay tuned ;)

  • 1985, Combat Tour?

  • the Witching Hour video is, but The Bloodlust video is the actual music video for it

  • Seen them Perform With -DarkFuneral,Immortal and Lunar Aurora..Great Show!

  • i love the beginning its so creepy but awsome at the same time

    VENOM!!!

  • its a bell......

  • Fuck yeah !!!!

  • I like the info :)

  • Jesus is the Lord the Alpha and the Omega the Lion of the tribe of Judah the bright and morning star -the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin Rev 1, 1 John 1:9, Revelation 21, Revelation 22 you must repent to God the Father and turn from demonic power and the power of darkness to Jesus Christ (God) satan is a fallen angel who wants to lead people away to hell- the lake of fire..but when you are born again by Christ by his precious blood through faith you will be free

  • dude this is just a song chill

  • lolwut?

  • satan is the light. follow the eternal light . jesus is the lamb.

    satan is the sheperd that will lead you to eternity.

  • by satan is the light me means lucifer the angel who was banshid from heaven for having power equal to gods

  • theres venom then theres slayer

  • i dont think the drummer has enough drums

  • I wish this had better production. It is soooooo much better than the studio version....faster, more brutal.....with a much better tone from Jeff Dunn......This guitar sound set the standard for extreme metal. I like to refer to it as Satan's Chainsaw. The tone he gets at the start of the solo makes the hair on my arms stand up. And the extro as well (with the wah wah). Too bad the sound is so muffled. Wish they'd remix it and rlease it on a boxed set.

  • metal rules fuck the rest,,,, little bro and his fuckin rap they suck and his friends to,,, metal for life,,, from iron maiden to lamb of god,,,, mastadon,,,, bodom,,,, metal rules,,,, metal 4 life.,,, and hour women look better,,, banger chicks 4 life,,,

  • I'd say witching hour is the best extreme metal song ever. Why not? It's heavy, it's fun, it's memorable and it's fucking catchy!

  • THIS VIDEO ISN'T LOUD ENOUGH!!!!!!

  • yea fuk i thought it was my computer

  • shit

    u can here multiple hugely important bands in this. for example, slayer,celtic frost, metallica etc. LAY DOWN YOUR SOULS TO THE GODS ROCK AND ROLL themselves.. hail venom!!

  • Their drummer kicks ass!

  • 2:20ish is epic headbanging!

  • WOW! Cronos looks like he's POSSESSED indeed! :-)

  • Cronos is'nt possessed, he possesses

  • I love Cronos, he's mental! :D

  • Come ride the night with us

    Rock hard and fight

    United my legions we stand

    Freak hard and wild for us

    Give up your souls

    Live for the guest Satan's band

  • thanks johnedee, I was wondering what song by Venom was

    on the documentary A Headbanger's Journey. They played about 10 seconds of Bloodlust. I found a live CD of them in

    fleamarket in MD but its not on that one. Their albums are

    kinda rare. Ive never come across one in AR where I live.

  • my buddy has the vinyl of black metal....i was in shock seeing it. amazing stuff.

  • haha, good description; i agree; <3 venom; like good wine, they only got better with age/the "cast in stone" proves it!

  • We love Venom.

  • Where can I get this in a DVD? Their is gotta be a DVD with all these video's? What is the title of this concert? Are they Promo's?

  • You'd be hard pressed to find a copy of the VHS, or maybe you'd be a ble to find a bootleg dvd.

  • FUCK HELL YEZ!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This exact concert is available as their live album "Eine kleine Nachtmusik". And it kicks fucking ass!!!

  • This isn't off Eine Kleine Nachtmusik. The version of Witching Hour from that video was recorded in 1985 at Hammersmith which can be seen on the VHS Hell at Hammersmith.

    This video is just their 1984 tour intro tape + studio recordings of both songs over the top of footage recorded just for the songs. None of this is an actual live concert.

  • So its actually the studio-version? I knew its a version from a record I have, so I figured it has to be the live thing. Havent listened to records for 15 years now... ;)

  • Actually, listening to it a bit more it could be a live recording. But its not from Ein Kleine Nachtmusik. Perhaps some other. If anyone knows I'd like to find out.

  • grande mantas

    el mejor de todos

  • VENOM!!!!

  • The first chorus at the start of the song where Cronos yells: "Hells breaking loose!!" looks like something out of a Dario Argento horror film; absolutely DEMONIC with the light shining up on only his evil looking mug and a faint shadow of Jeff behind him. And that wah wah on the guitar in the extro solo sends shivers up my spine. I'd love to know Jeffs guitar setup on that.

  • I do the same sound than his guitar just with a crappy electric guitar and a Korg AX5-G multi effects pedal :P

  • WITHING HOUR!! All Hail VENOM!! The Fathers of ALL extreme metal! Death/Black/Thrash owe it all to them!! If Sabbath birthed "heavy metal" in general, these guys birthed the "brutal" metal we all love! Every extreme band owes it to these 3 guys....BLACK METAL FOR EVER!

  • love Bloodlust its my 2nd favourite Venom song

  • Not only that but Slayer's version is terrible. The voice is all wrong for this song.  Tom should have sung the WHOAAA-OHH HELL BREAKS LOOSE!! part in his highest scream. Kreator's version, while not great either, is better than Slayer's hideously bad cover. And I like Slayer.

  • slayer & machine head perform it better......

    this is not black metal....this is just somthing like motorhead....

  • i think you're right. they coined the term, but by todays standards, this was pretty dark when it first came out.

  • This is far, FAR from Motorhead. Most of MH's songs were just fast boogies. This is the brith of black/death metal. It may not suit todays standards of what DM/BM is now, but back then this was the most brutal **** anyone had ever heard, and it blew peoples minds.

  • And it still blows people's minds.

  • I'm just tripping at all the kids who were not born during the time of Venom.

    They destroy emo with ease.

  • Great song!! See my videos, We play cover of Witching hour!

  • The studio version of bloodlust was definitely just layed on top of this video.

  • No it wasn't. The studio version from Welcome to Hell is slower and much less "heavy" than this version. This version was from this video only. I wish I COULD get this on CD.

  • You can, this is on "Live at Hammersmith"

  • Live At Hammersmith eh? I'll check it out. Thanks.

  • 1984's "The 7th Date of Hell" or 1985's "Hell at Hammesmith"?

    It looks as if the video was shot at the Hammersmith, but those are studio recordings.

  • aaaahhhh

    fuck yea old scool black metal

  • thrash and black metal are venos creation

  • wow I never realized how influential venom was on slayer until hearing (and seeing this) then again now I see (and hear) how influential motorhead was on venom! metal DNA

  • This vid's not loud enough! I got my comp on full blast and I can bearly hear anything!

  • personally i don't fuck with religion.......it's stupid when u take it too seriously...........just enjoy the music ppl

  • bkn

  • Fin juin au Hellfest ! :)

  • du black metal pure et dure

  • true rock and roll.

    no fucking bullshit like Guns and Roses.

  • Lay down your souls to the gods rock and roll...Venom fucking rule!

  • Gods....

  • VENOM FUCKIN ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • yea

  • the slayer version is good too

  • Hail Venom Mother Fuckers
