This review is from: Singles 80-86 (Audio CD)

This album is as essential as their studio-albums Welcome To Hell, Black Metal and At War With Satan. One of the many cool things about Venom was that they recorded new stuff for their singles, they did not use songs from their studio albums. In their classic period (81-86) they released 6 singles: In League With Satan, Bloodlust, Die Hard, Warhead, Manitou and Nightmare. All, and their B-sides, are represented on this collection, except Nightmare. Why they did not include Nightmare and its B-side Satanachist is beyond me. But still the collection of songs here is great, 2 of my favourite Venom songs are on this album (and not on their studio albums): Bloodlust and Acid Queen. Other essential classics include Warhead, Seven Gates Of Hell, Die Hard, Manitou and In Nomine Satanus. If you only own the studio albums you are missing out on some of Venoms greatest songs, on some of the greatest black metal songs really.
