Seriously, because I don't have $50 to spend and something tells me my wife won't buy that this is a Valentines Day present "for both of us"

If yer wife don't dig Venom, a divorce seems to be in order...

Don't do it. I just bought the deluxe reissues of the first four albums; that's all you need.

What's on those, anyway?

Think about how good it will sound when you're alone on your futon in a one room flat eating Ramen noodles. Hail Satan!

Non-album singles, a couple of live tracks, a couple of BBC sessions, alternate takes...you know, the usual. And a lot of that stuff is what makes up the box. I was gonna buy the box, when I thought it was like a Citizen Venom thing with the complete albums, plus extra tracks. But when I realized it didn't have every track from every album, just a solid selection plus a shitload of rarities...nah, fuck that.

One very important note - none of the Venom reissues has the Ecstatic Peace single of nothing but Cronos between-song banter, so don't even get your hopes up.

No need to worry, I have that thanks to Celebrities at their Worst.

"CHANTING...OF THE PRIESTS!"

I love that track in that it makes every Venom song sound like a three-second metal version of Wire.
