Experience the raw, unpolished power of First-Wave Black Metal legends with Venom’s 2018 release, Storm The Gates.
Released via Spinefarm Records, this album captures Cronos (Bass/Vocals), Rage (Guitars), and Dante (Drums) at their most pugilistic. Storm The Gates stays true to the band's NWoBHM and Black Metal roots, delivering the aggressive snarling vocals, heavy hooky riffs, and "bulldozer" bass sound that have defined the band's legacy for decades. This particular CD version is an unofficial release, perfect for collectors looking to round out their discography of the genre's founding fathers.
The album features a blistering 13-track gauntlet of "full-on Velveeta lyrics" and "Neanderthal" percussion, maintaining the filth of their old-school sound while benefiting from the brawn of modern recording intensity.
Key Tracks:- "Bring Out Your Dead" – A crushing opening statement.
- "Notorious" – Highlighted for its straightforward, hooky riffage.
- "Dark Night (Of The Soul)" – A standout showcase of Cronos’ aggressive vocal tone.
- "100 Miles To Hell" – Pure, high-octane Venom energy.
- "Storm The Gate" – The climactic title track.
If you are looking for the antithesis of polished modern metal, Storm The Gates is a masterclass in classic, Satanic-inspired aggression.
