Venom - "Hell"

And you have to check Count Raven, I just acquired their four albums lately. Very good Sabbath-based doom with a vocalist that reminds Ozzy incredibily.

And Krux kick ass, but then again most bands with Mats Leven on vocals do

Well I downloaded the album and it's really good (if you're a Venom fan or dig this type of metal). Not thrashy like "Metal Black" more in the sound of the first three or "Resurrection". Still is raw, unpolished, sloppy played (on purpose I belive) metal but the production has been refined since the 80's. I'm gonna get it as soon as available at reasonable prices.

I'm undecided. I love Black metal and Welcome to hell but this one was abit odd.
I like half the songs, but some of the others seem abit shit. And the clack-clack-clack double bass drumming annoys the shit outa me.

I didn't noticed actually, but if it's so it would fit a black metal band, in this case a good one

I don't know why people hate "Metal Black" so much is a good thrash album for Venom standards. 'Antechrist', 'Regé Satanas' are good Venom songs. The new one is less thrashy still not in the vein of "Resurrection" or the early albums. I have listen to it a couple of times and click enough to be purchased, I guess I can listen to it more just tobe on the safe side.

Has anyone seen any physical copies of this album? Even the online stores that specialize in Metal don't even have this album listed in their catalogs, and it's not on iTunes.

No damn it, and I want it I do like the download a lot, the album is good IMO and Rage does a good guitar work compared to Mantas and Mykkus, reminds me of their NWOBHM roots but at the same time modern like "Resurrection" is not as thrashy as "Metal Black.

CD Universe has it really expensive and on backorder , Amazon has it very expensive in pre-order for August 12 . I keep checking at other sellers to see if I can get it sooner for less.
