    “Beginning of the Black Metal genre. Fantastic riffs...”

There may not be many people's opinion you can trust in music today, but if Slayer's Kerry King says that Venom are the most important metal band ever, then I feel safe that they are at least a good band. Brilliantly quick in some places, slow and brooding in others, the only thrash/heavy metal album I would say... (read more)
