79/100 across seven reviews. Venom are the band that literally christened black metal in 1982. Decades on, Into Oblivion rolls out the same primitive blend of speed, dirty heavy and B-movie satanic attitude.
The press hails a record faithful to the spirit, unpretentious, honest in its filth. You don’t come to Venom for finesse, and that’s just fine. Rating: 8.
