[QUOTE="litacore:200654"]this was also the first year ('85) I heard the band. 'Possessed' wasn't first thing I heard (probably a good thing), it was the 'Manitou' single and 'Canadian Assault'. Production-wise, there's really something about the snare/hi-hat sound on 'At War with Satan' and the '7 Gates of Hell' single that really make those releases stand out as heavier than everything else, IMO. Even the vocals and guitar sound crisper there. the following year ('86), Venom still had Mantas but he was drifting away pretty quickly, apparently. I have a tape from their Live show at the Ritz in NYC, and at the end there are some fifteen-second snippets of Venom's rough mixes for what was supposed to be the 'Deadline' record. The tape is third, or fourth-generation so of course it sounds like complete shit. Most of these songs on there, like Chanting of the Priests, ended up on 'Calm Before the Storm,' after Mantas left and Jim Clare and Mike Hickey took over (and the hair got bigger). But MUCH TO MY DISMAY, 'Deadline' was never released (I wonder if it's just that it wasn't finished, or was scrapped altogether, or if a rough bootleg mix survives out there somewhere). There was a whole big article on Venom recording 'Deadline' in Creem magazine back then in '86, so I know it was going on. Maybe the only way for me to find it is to ask Cronos himself. VENOMOLOGY 101, to be continued, eh?[/QUOTE]
