  • I SINK MY FANGS IN YOUR NECK AS YOU DREAM! I AM COUNT CRONOS, VAMPIRE SUPREME!

  • I always thought Mantas looked like my friend's dad. . .

    As for the Black Metal debate: Venom may have coined the term, but the Norwegians took it way off into another direction. . .a much less interesting one if you asked me. Not one of them rocked as much as Venom.

  • We all know what Venom provided to black metal. Now please, stop boring the tits off everyone.

  • Venom IS black metal with a great thrash touch...For all those wankers who dislike Venom

    I would like to say: Fuck Off...Venom is still one of the best metal acts around...

    Hell yeah... hail to Venoms Legions worldwide..

  • Id like to thank sam dunn for showing me black metal, can't get enough of it, especially Venom and Autopsy! \m/

  • when i move out of my house n i cannot wait...i am buying two rottweilers one will be called Mantas and the other will be Abbadon fuckin stoked!

  • Thank you Sam Dunn for introducing me to bands such as Venom and Autopsy

  • @DacianStefanica ikr Sam Dunn is the metal historian.

  • To all of you that have said Venom isnt black metal where the hell do you think the term black metal came from

  • @GWARRIOR1975 From Venom's Album witch is named Black Metal

  • Comment removed

  • Jesus Saves! - just kidding-

  • Their whole presentation was a major influence on Black Metal. The names they gave themselves, the extreme Satanic imagery, etc. But it seems Venom were more having fun with the imagery, and most of the later 2nd wave bands were dead serious about it.

  • @BlackMetalInferno No shit, they are like the first thrash metal band, and an influence to black metal

  • Cronos is one sexy man!!!!!

  • I can't work out why people say they were shit at playing. This shit is fast and tight. I just think they were ahead of their time and people didn't know what to make of it.

  • It's almost ridiculous that they never learned to play in time. Even the newer videos show them struggling to maintain tempo. But whatever. I love 'em.

  • The 4 bands that influenced all Black Metal (in no specific order): Venom, Mercyful Fate, Bathory, and Celtic Frost

  • 0;42 LAUNCH IT!

  • best black metal band ever

  • @rustinpeace1992 venom isn`t a black metal band !!

  • @666kerryking you don't know shit. it is the first wave of black metal/

  • @666kerryking, yeah, I guess that's why their second album is called "Black Metal," Cronos has referred to their style as "black metal" for nearly 30 years, and a number of black metal bands cite Venom as an influence.

  • @rustinpeace1992 Venom is not Black Metal you poser.

  • @MikeTheKingScorp1993 Go ahead and ask Fenriz, Nocturno Culto, Necrobutcher, Euronymous (OK, you'll have some problems with that), they'd all tell you Venom is black metal.

  • all except the music is black the music is thrash

  • AHHHHHHHHHH \m/

  • awesome performance. Hail Venom!!

  • Kill me now, because this is just too awesome 2:23

  • alguien me dice que es lo que grita al inicio ? \,,/ Yeah venom !!

  • i dont give a fuck if venom is thrash,black or heavy metal. i just love 'em :D

  • The guitarist mantas surely has created his own sound,punkmetal!

  • Still the Fookin' Best Man!

  • If they sound awesome it doesn't matter what they look like. And you kiddies won't know this, but in the early 80s EVERYBODY looked super lame. Then again, that continues to this day. Or are you going to tell me having the crotch of your pants hang down between your knees makes you look really suave and cool?

    Musically Venom were years ahead of their time, and that's what matters. One of the most important metal bands of all time, they stood at the cradle of thrash, speed, black and death metal.

  • I saw em in 84 and in 85 in germany and still love this shit. You should see my daughters face when she s watching videos like this....dad is an weirdo...

  • Comment removed

  • I have multiple Orgasms, i was masturbated myself..... when mom arrives to my room... and told me "Can i help you?" and then i say YES PLEASE... Ohhh!! Cronos Is so sexy! lol O:

  • They sound great, good musicians but they do look super lame

  • And by the way;

    BLOOD FOR THE BLOODGOD!

  • It sounds so awesome, but they look so incredibly lame.

  • 2:24 epic

  • double post my bad

  • Venom the master of brutality! Argghhhhhh!

  • TEARING THE FLESH OF THE MEEK AND THE CHILD! SPURTING MY LOAD ON THE MEEK AND THE MILD!

  • @jjmora1789 sounds more like what he said, but the lyrics don't say that. which I wouldn't be surprised that that's what he meant lol, Hail Cronos!

  • TEARING THE FLESH OF THE MEEK AND THE CHILD! SPURTING MY LOAD ON THE MEEK AND THE MILD!

  • :)

  • @theDirtySanchez92 shut up

    

  • baddest black metaller on earth.

  • black metal GODS..!!!!

  • Venom have set a standard which i love, they wanted straigght forward, undiluted brutal metal. All Hail to venom for sticking to their guns. They are not a band who sell out like emo/ scene kid bands like Bring me the 'hair extensions' (horizon)

  • anything coming out of the 80's is simpley the best!!! any type of music! fuck todays music

  • @pompei1968 Yeah dude even pop music was decent.

  • Without Venom there would be no cradle of filth thank you thank you for inspireing Danni Filth All hail Venom

  • venomworship

  • So it's Sunday morning,

    what do i do instead of going to church? BLAST SOME VENOM!!!!!!

    (lol ik they're not real satanists)

    HIAL VENOM!

  • 24 people are fucking ass hats that hate good music.

  • One of the original and best thrashers. Metal and thrash punk come together

  • LOL black metal doesn't have to be blast beats and shrieking

    its all about the darkness man.

  • That headbanging at 2:26 is the most evilest shit I've ever seen...they dont even have to wear any makeup or facepaint, that is just way too badass and evil, fuck modern black metal...Venom is the only real one....the Kreators!!

  • THIS IS PURE FUCKIN BLACK METAL!!!!!!!!

  • Ooooohhhhh Bloodlust!!!

  • Actually Venom isn't really thrash OR black metal. They are one of the main influences of both of those genres though. They are the fusion of heavy metal and hardcore punk. This fusion they created, is what led to thrash, and later black metal.

    You also have to keep in mind thrash evolved quite a bit over time, and black metal did also to an even greater degree.

  • @sonnygll venom ARE black metal, they invented it, everybody else copied them.

  • @sonnygll including slayer bathory candlemass......

  • @sonnygll you have fucking annoyed me

  • @TheDoyle138

    That's good to know. Annoying retards is one of my biggest hobbies. Yep, nothing I like better than listening to some old Venom while incessantly evoking the highest levels of frustration in the most feeble minded dipshits I can possibly find. So much better in person though. That look of anger in their dumb drooling faces is pure ecstasy. Go on then, entertain me, fool! Throw that tantrum of stupidity for my amusement!

  • @sonnygll You're an asshole.

  • @evolooshion

    How exactly did you make that determination?

    Probably by reading something out of the context, of the post it was a reply to.... Ah, who am I kidding?... It's obvious you're just saying whatever pops into your head, since you're a total fucktard. You have all the linguistic sophistication of a magic 8 ball. Do you just shake your head until something utterly inane spills forth from your mouth, like a big wave of sonic stupidity? ...because it kind of sounds like that.

  • @sonnygll Sorry about that comment. Last night was...interesting...I was pissed beyond words and it was leaking into everything I was doing. Sincerest apologies

  • @evolooshion

    Accepted. I think we've all posted angry and/or drunk, gone back to look, and thought, "what the fuck was I talking about?".

  • @sonnygll This style to me were influenced by Motorhead if you think about it.

  • @666deathghost

    Yes, indeed, I hear quite a lot of Motorhead influence. I would venture a guess that Motorhead was the favorite band of one or more of the guys in Venom, prior to them forming the band.

    You can hear influences of different metal and punk bands from the mid to late 70's, but Motorhead is definitely the strongest influence. Same band configuration as Motorhead too.

  • @sonnygll I also hear a little G.B.H in there too.

  • @sonnygll Same mike position as Lemmy's, too

  • Who ever call this Thrash is a complete idiot.

  • @sonnygll Cronos toned the phrase "Black Metal" and claimed in the 80s to be the first and only 'Black Metal" band out there.

  • @f89276704

    Yea, I think he came up with that quite early on. What he meant by it, and what other people meant by it are a little different though. Sometimes music can be hard to categorize too. Does it have to have the black metal type vocals to be black metal? Opinions vary.

    I would consider bands like Venom, and Celtic Frost, to be more proto-black metal. It still sounded more like a mix of it's influences, rather what is usually classified as black metal post-80's.

  • 23 people thought that the Thumb pointing DOWN was the DOWNLOAD button !!!

  • Check out dude's drumkit set up!!! That's awesome how he has his rack toms set up like that!!!

  • To me Venom is like a mix between Slayer and Iron maiden...Very fucking cool mix if you ask me.

  • Turn It Up And Rip The Knob Off!!!

  • COME ON TUN IT UP!!!!

  • Thats some sloppy solo work.

  • For Fuck Sake this sounds way more old school Death Metal than Thrash Metal or Black Metal

  • @comedybenj lol!, this is before old school DM xd, so they don't sound like OSDM, cause there was no such thing

  • Where is the black metal ?

  • @WateverBr You can find it in the satanic symbols, lyrics, raw nihilism of the music, hedonistic additude of the bandmembers, love for leather and tasteless stage apearance. But most of all: IN THE SHEER AWSOMENESS. OBEY!!

  • @Morgenster haha' you're right.

  • @WateverBr everywhere...

  • Venom invented black and tharsh they are geniuses PERIOD!

  • when did this song come out

  • @metaldrummer71 The Bloodlust single came out '82.

  • Venom. How can you describe them? Angry, Aggresive, Satan esque? How about bad musicianship! I love Venom, they are probabley my favorite band but as musicians, lets face they suck. But they also dont fuck around. Thats what I love about them, they dont let there crappy playing getting in the way of there amzing aura and the fact that they created two metal genres!!!!!!!!!

  • @IRKMovies yeah, their music was much uncomplicated, but they were a fucking great influence in extreme metal, the same way the sex pistols and the ramones were on punk. we should acknowledge that and ignore what, in my oppinion is pretty obvious and not nice at all

  • WTF?? it is called Black Metal because of its LYRICS!!

  • A headbangers journey anyone?

  • black metal is limited by the song theme ...... everytime is hell and f... satan ..... gettin boring after sometime

  • MANTAS!

  • Venom came out before iron maiden and also came out before Metallica

  • Black Metal and Thrash Metal were always the closest of musical siblings...

  • \../ ¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡VENOM RULEZZZZZZZZZZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!! \../

  • I agree with davidrocks17

  • This band kicks ass man and to the faggit with the ice ice bady shit shut the fuck up

  • Spuging on people while eating their infants; is there anyhting better in life?

  • @cptnwilliamread

    What is best in life? To crush your enemies, see them driven before you... and to hear the lamentation of their women!

  • who the fuck is SATAN ?

  • @rhymiinNstealiin Enough with posting this please its getting old.

  • If these "Thrashers" saw Satan they would run and hide in garbage cans.

    They were squids in the 80's and sucker asses like you are all pussies.

    Ice Ice Baby could kick their asses at once, sad.

  • My friend said Dave Mustaine invented thrash which I was big into megadeth and he did play a big role, but I then said "Fuck Dave Cronos invented it!" he was all like "fuck your Greek gods or whatever" and I was all like ".....You call yourself a thrasher.."

  • If this is thrash it's very heavy thrash

  • The best time in the whole metal history. I wish I were born earlier.

  • OOOOOOOOOOOH BLOODLUST!

  • larga vida a venom

    

  • sadomasoquism gay style!

  • First Headlining band i ever saw aged 14 (1985).

  • I love it when he says VAMPIRE SUPREME!

  • This was completely badass back then and still isssss

  • do pepole realy like this shit they look like

    Jennifer Saunders

    and

    paul calf

  • @metroradiosaturdays Does it fucking matter what they look like? No it doesnt. if you dont like it, go jack off to a justin bieber video.

  • @MegaMetang i just have i will agin soon and deffo will some other time to

    hahah paul calf

    wot a copple of little wankers they are !

  • @metroradiosaturdays Still on this video? To be honest it's strange how you "dont like the video" and still go on it. I have nothing wrong with you not liking it..cause its your opinion, but why are you just trash talking complete bullshit? And its simple just to click the X on the top right hand corner of the screen if you dont like it.

  • @MegaMetang i keep coming bk coz im getting messages from you , and i am going to reply to messagel like ,"go jack off to justin beever".

    the reason why i came here in the first place is coz i heard an intervew that had no video to see what they looked like ,as i am from were they are from and thaut i mite reconise them ,from round about .

    then i realised who they look like .

    so thats the end of that ,am going to jack off over justin beever, u do the same over venom ,good luck .

  • how old is this show ?

  • @TheDenres192 look like it's 1983 here. Or 82. I'm not sure. Still a very awesome show though! \m/

  • @MetalAttack1986 82 bro. Before Slayer. Before Celtic Frost. Before Bathory. Venom started the extreme metal movement.

  • @SCROGY i fucking agree Venom did

  • @SlayerGi0

    To be honest, the term "Thrash Metal" was a good way for the American's to distinguish their sound from the European stuff before.

    So I agree with you that earlier bands in Europe shouldn't be labelled thrash.

    It's does them a disservice.

    Metallica did bring differences. Namely some speed increase and more distortion.

    To be honest, If it's metal, I'm interested!!!!

    Although I do prefer bands from Europe more so than American bands.

  • @servantlol To me, it seems like the Norwegian scene gets all the credit when many bands are actually less old-school and less innovative than, for example some of the Finnish bands.  It's hard to be impressed with Gorgoroth's mid-'90s songs considering songs like Beherit's "Grave Desecration" and Archgoat's "Rise of the Black Moon" came out in 1991 and Bathory's "War" dates back to 1984.

  • @servantlol As far as proto-black and First Wave goes, my list of the most significant bands would be Bathory circa 1984 (those who think Norwegians invented the sound of BM have not heard "Satan My Master"), Sarcofago, Holocausto, and, later on, Blasphemy. Of my favorite old-school Second Wave bands, e.g. Marduk, Archgoat, War, Beherit, and Horde, none are Norwegian.

  • This isnt "a" ban it is "The Band"

  • I LOVE THAT THERE IS A SPELL IN WOW THATS CALLED BLOODLUST! :D

  • Proto Thrash

  • you are COUNT CRONOS.... vampire supreme !!! hell yeah !!!

  • HEAVY AS FUCK!

  • Total classic masterpiece hymn of hate,sarcasm,inteligence!!!

  • no one can describe how much i love metal!! the whole genre is just awesome !!

  • congratulations youngsters, you have just witnessed the invention of thrash.

  • @6sixpounder6 invention of blackmetal

  • @6sixpounder6 Which was really just a mix of Black Sabbath, Judas Priest and Ironmaiden...sped up and with less ability. They did take it to another level though and it was original for the time.

  • @6sixpounder6 Garage inc was out before this. listen to killing time. thats fucking thrash

  • @6sixpounder6

    I was there. They're even more ridiculous than I remembered. Venom might have started something good but it doesn't change the fact they stunk.

  • venom is way more thrash then black metal

  • @phuckinmetal they merely coined the term, similar to how steppenwolf (not a heavy metal band) coined the term "heavy metal".

  • @phuckinmetal Actually, Venom is Black MEtal, but today's Black Metal is so deformed that it sounds like a bunch of pigs being raped while a freaking lion eats them.

  • @kancherito33 Actually musically speaking Venom is Thrash Metal. They were a huge influence on and basically spawned the early Black Metal scene, but calling Venom Black Metal is like calling Slayer Death Metal...they had a huge influence on the respective genres, but that doesn't change the fact that musically, they're both Thrash bands.

  • @kancherito33 That's called screamo/deathcore/metalcore. Gay genre.

  • @phuckinmetal werent they part of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal?

  • @TheDemarius for sure they where...they should be on the big for list

  • @phuckinmetal Really? Hmm, interesting, but nonetheless, im not one to aim towards satanic metal, its not my style, kick ass song here. I'd call this Doom Metal, I could play Doom with this bands stuff playing.

  • @phuckinmetal no they real black metal if venom wasn't created their would be no black metal.

  • @WweThemes120 no youre so very wrong...black metal sounds nothing like venom...venom sounds more thrashy

  • @phuckinmetal

    black metal doesn't have to be blast beats and shrieking

    its all about the EVIL man

  • @phuckinmetal but you gotta understand back then that was black metal lol

  • @WweThemes120 Agreed. People who say Venom weren't black metal are looking at it through the perspective of today. Back then this was the MOST BRUTAL music imaginable. This was the start of it all: black/death/grindcore/etc.....­...you have to keep perspective. Other bands came along and codified certain genres but Venom did it all first. Chuck Schuldiner agreed.

  • @SCROGY Totally agreed. That's why I really feel that bands like Venom and Mercyful Fate are more black metal than Mayhem and such because they coined the name to there music and back then this was the sickest shit. If they made the name black metal to define this type of music than this right here is BLACK METAL. Even, Cronos has gone on record saying Venom is black metal and the norwegian bands aren't actually black metal.

  • @WweThemes120 The Norwegians got into mommys make-up cabinet

  • @hjejmnse1 dude there from there UK

  • @hjejmnse1 dude there from the UK
