Awesome Raymond Watts stuff here!.......2005-04-06
I love this CD. Although not all of the tracks are really really good, War Pigs and Keeper of the Margarita rock! Some of the best stuff done by Pig, worth getting, definately!!!
More fun to have than to listen to........2000-10-24
What can I say? I was disappointed. As a fan of Pig's phenomenal musicianship, I set certain standards for this EP to live up to. It fell far short, comparatively. The only remix that even came close to challenging the sheer genius of "Wrecked" was Pig's remix of "Everything" (which I am only saying due to the creepy-yet-cliché major seventh vocal harmonization). The title track certainly has it's interesting moments (like the section in 7/8, and an amazing usage of brass) However, the lyrics teeter on the edge of goof-ball, and the whole song lacks pig's mastery of texture and depth. "The Keeper of the Margarita" has its moments of beauty (which grow stale after those same moments are extended into the sixth minute). And "War Pigs" (although an interesting take on it) wasn't a good song back when Black Sabbath did it (and at risk of getting an entourage of hate mail, not even after Faith No More's valiant attempt). As a proud fan of Pig, this album makes a pretty edition to my collection even though it sits in the back and gathers dust like the bowling trophy you put out with the others simply because it's another trophy.

whereas the majority of the songs on this release can be found on other pig cds, the ones that aren't are deffinately worth picking up this one for. "prime evil" is one of the best pig songs i've ever heard, and even though i hate black sabbath, this cover of the song "war pigs" is wonderful. a deffinate must in your pig collection.

Not Bad, Still Venom.......2007-02-06
Before I bought this, I had made my mind that Venom = Cronos and Mantas (I was disappointed by Metal Black). However, I thought I'd give this album a try even though it lacks one of my favorite metal singers. And I must say, the band knows how to replace its singer. I noticed a change in Cronos' style between Possessed and Cast In Stone, and the new frontman sounds like the new Cronos.
The album starts off really strong, with five solid rock tracks...then it hits Megalomania, a cover of my favorite band, Black Sabbath. I am really glad they did not attempt to cover the whole song, because they manage to butcher the second half. If the singer tried to sound like himself and not Bon Scott choking on a bat, then perhaps it would work.
After this track, the album does not recover. The songs are not bad, but they do not meet the trend set by the first five. Skool Daze is the exception; it is a fine rocker.
If you are just starting your Venom collection, get Black Metal and Welcome to Hell before buying this album (I'd actually recommend buying the first four, but those two at the very least).
All in all not a bad album...Mantas is in top form. The new singer is annoying at times, but he is not terrible. And the drums are what I've come to expect from Venom...nothing great, but if you listen to Venom for precise drumming, there is something wrong with you.

Many, many, many fans will disagree with me on this but this new line-up and set of albums with Tony Dolan (Demolition Man)shows their true musicianship, polished and at their best musically and lyrically. Gone are the cheesy satanic lyrics that have been done over so many times. Prime Evil has better songs, period! The structuring, lyrics, musical content and production make this album my all-time favorites of Venom albums. Ultra heavy riffs, darker vocals than Cronos and complex bass lines Cronos ever could have pulled off. Everyone is stuck in the old realm of Venom, which was in it's day friggin awesome but it's time to learn to play our instruments a little better and improve with age which they did. Abbaddon is actually playing solid and his timing is down and the guitars are furious with flesh ripping distortion and ear splitting leads that makes this album a blast to listen to! Damn, you don't need Cronos because Tony sounds just like him but just better! So guys, get over the old line-up already. Pick up some Venom like Prime Evil, Temples of Ice and The Waste Lands and embrace the evolution of Venom metal. Hey, the new albums are good too but these three highlight them at their peak. They are entirely underrated and didn't receive the respect they deserved because of one missing man that could have gone unnoticed. O.K. Who's bringing the noose?
GOOD BUT.............2006-01-20
Not nearly as good as the ¨Calm Before The Storm ¨album or any of the first albums.The style is more conventional heavy metal with some thrashers like ¨Parasite¨ and even a slow song and a 1000 mph version of Sabbath's ¨Megalomania¨ . This album marks the departure of bassist/singer Chronos and enter Tony Dolan as a replacement.The new frontman can play serious bass (gone is Venom's trademark sloppiness) but his voice is deeply buried in the mix .The overall sound is very good,the playing so tight it squeaks.The volume and tonal quality shift quite a lot from one song to another,making for constant adjustments to compensate.A good album is its own right but not nearly as interesting as any of its predecessors.
AWESOME VENOM.......2005-10-26

Good Thrash, But Not Exactly True Venom.......2004-06-28
The new Venom lineup with Abaddon, Mantas, new bassist/vocalist Tony "Demolition Man" Dolan & rythem guitarist Al Barnes (the weak guy here-thankfully he left a little later) made a good attempt at playing black metal but never really reached the level of "rawness" or evil that the original did, but it was a good attempt. Strangely, on the back cover photos, Mantas, Abaddon & Barnes are all wearing cross (right side up no less). Very odd. When you listen to this it might be best not to think of this as Venom, but as some band "related" to them. Still, there are some pretty good songs here. The title track & opening number, "Prime Evil" is probably the best song this lineup ever recorded. It's really loud & has some great riffs; "Parasite" (not the Kiss song) is a good thrasher; "Blackened Are the Priests" is reminiscent of older Venom & sounds really powerful, especially with the chanting intro; "Harder Than Ever" is kind of like an anthem, like Kiss' "Rock & Roll All Nite", but is good & rowdy; "Into the Fire" is another powerful song that should be played extra loud; "Skool Daze", a "sequel" to "Teacher's Pet" is full of that nice Venom sleaze. Weak spots are their cover of Black Sabbath's "Megalomania". It's ok, but they only play the second half of it. Too bad they couldn't go for the whole thing. "Skeletal Dance" sounds kind of sloppy, mainly due to Abaddon's drumming. And why they had to re-do "Live Like An Angel-Die Like a Devil" when the original is perfectly good is beyond me. Also, even though Cronos co-wrote it, he isn't credited as doing so. They kind of make you think that this new lineup wrote it. Oh well. All in all, this is a pretty solid thrash album, but I wish it had more "blackness" in it, but you can't have everything, I guess.
