VENOM INC.
Announce First Ever Australian Tour
.
.
The formidable Abaddon, Mantas and Demolition Man descend on Aussie shores for their Avé Australis Tour in February 2018.
Formed as VENOM in 1979 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. And coming to prominence towards the end of the new wave of British heavy metal, VENOM’S first two albums—Welcome to Hell (1981) and Black Metal (1982)—are considered a major influence on thrash metal and extreme metal in general. VENOM’S second album proved influential enough that its title was used as the name of an extreme metal sub-genre: Black Metal.
During the 80’s, VENOM were THE extreme band, releasing more classic albums such as AT WAR WITH SATAN, POSSESSED and countless classic, live albums, such as the ASSAULT live album series and the legendary Eine Kleine Nachtmusik Double LP and the The Seventh Date of Hell: Live At Hammersmith Odeon Video which helped launch Metallica, who were the support band for VENOM’S tour.
Following Cronos’ departure from the band, Tony Dolan (The Demolition Man) from Atomkraft, stepped in filling Cronos’ big, red boots, most admirably. And recording four releases with VENOM: Prime Evil (1989), Tear Your Soul Apart (1990), Temples of Ice (1991), The Waste Lands (1992).
The current line-up of The Demolition Man, Abaddon and Mantas is now revered as the mighty VENOM INC. With brand new album AVÉ out now on Nuclear Blast Records, hear select tracks from this album, as well as all the early VENOM classics live and for the first time in Australia!

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
