Best viewed without Internet Explorer, in x resolution or higher. Thinking back to the early outputs of Venom, I must say that their records always possessed a healthy portion of filth.
The musicians were punk-influenced mavericks that tortured the listener by creating a kind of martial chaos. Sometimes it seemed as if their instruments were their biggest enemies. Nevertheless, the nasty yet self-mocking band celebrated major successes with its unsettling way of proceeding.
It is a pure metal album which is free from external influences. Chaotic elements do not show up. The musicians master their instruments, venom resurrection. And, for whatever reason, the full-length has not become a commercial resurrection. Venom released a solid album which scored with a couple of very well constructed songs. But the black metal roots are trimmed, although two original members, Cronos and Mantas, were involved in the making of "Resurrection". Instead, the band is armed with fourteen tracks that combine elements of heavy, power and thrash metal in a predominantly successful manner.
The modern production stresses the voluminous guitars without neglecting the contributions of Cronos or drummer Antton. Generally spoken, the sound is heavy and vehement. It does not show any old-school tendencies. Do not misunderstand me, "Resurrection" does not suffer from an artificial or high-polished sound. But in terms of Venom, one has to get used to this transparent and clean mix. Once this has been done, it is great fun to listen to powerful tracks such as the riff-driven "Thirteen" with its flattening chorus or the stoical "Firelight" which reveals an amazing degree of catchiness thanks to its captivating main riff.
Both songs do not focus on high speed and this approach is more or less representative for the entire record. Legitimate successors of rapid bullets such as "Lady Lust" or "Black Metal" do not appear.
Instead, Venom surprise, inter alia, with unexpected details such as an atmospheric chorus "War Against Christ" and an almost balladic bridge "Leviathan". But however, "Resurrection" offers a fairly broad spectrum of metal that does not lack of subliminal aggression.
With a few minor exceptions, the songs do not include tedious sections. It is amazing, for instance, that the vast majority of the choruses is catchy and intensive at the same time. With regard to that mature performance, the lack of spontaneity plays a minor role. The main thing is that the songs are not predictably constructed.
The compactness and the honesty of the homogeneous album are noteworthy. Well, it is surely questionable whether a relatively "normal" metal full-length meets the expectation set by the notorious name Venom. But further development is not a crime. To try something new is also not forbidden. And we may not forget that the raw voice of Cronos establishes the connection between "Resurrection" and their early classics. If you like no-frills metal, this album possesses the quality to enrich your collection.
It stands as a minor oddball in the Venom discography for many reasons. Many songs have "filler" written all over therm, but yet are still pretty decent. It has arguably the most polished sound of any of their albums. But, is it any good overall? Mantas in back in the saddle with loud riffing and shredding, though both men and their instruments lose a bit of that old, raw Venom charm due to the rather clean and loud sound of the songs, allowing for a minor generic feel to seep through.
As I mentioned earlier, a good number of the songs are very fillerish, but many still have little quirks to them that make them better than they should be. Numbers like "Firelight" or Disbeliever" are just okay. Not bad, but okay. Little numbers like "Loaded" or "Man, Myth And Magic" remain memorable thanks to surprising melody and speed, while others like closer "Leviathan" are blessed with a crushing midpace.
The best numbers overall include: Overall, the lack of Abaddon, clean production and overuse of fillers may put some off, but "Resurrection" still ranks as certainly one of the band better efforts. Though I will give it two thumbs up for having some of the best artwork on any metal record at any time.
Venom are running on "arena metal" autopilot at this juncture and the best they can shove out it an fist-pumping, somewhat lethargic tribute to themselves thank God Cronos can still sing like he always did Sadly, this record might just be the Venom swan song as little has been heard about the band since Cronos suffered a severe neck injury. Much of the album suffers on a songwriting level as well as finding the band being "out of touch with the times".
Some of the songs are quite good but some are very, very poor. The one-two slam of "Resurrection" and the banging "Pandemonium" are quite good but songs like "Pain" and "Control Freak" are simply laughable.
Not in the "humor haha" way either. Venom are artistically dry, desperate for something more substantial than a bad shout-along chorus that is fun in the moment yet adding depth to their already legendary career. Venom are striking out with this one, though I do play it quite often.
This is a very uninspired and forgettable album. Venom have gone from speed metal to very bland half-thrash. For the most part, this is not all that much removed from a Pantera album.
Highlights are few and far between This is speed metal in the vein of Jugulator, or perhaps newer Exciter. Stupid tricks like half-thrash riffs "Leviathan" or dropping the riffs entirely in the verses "Man Myth and Magic" are here far too often And that stupid little interlude just screams "what the fuck". The rest is utterly formulaic, and totally devoid of the raw energy that made classic Venom so damn classic in the first place. Does Venom really need any introduction at all?
Well now what can you expect from Venom, seeing how this cd came out 19 years after the band released possibly THE second or third most influential cd for metal.
What you can expect is an ass kicking! Wow, the guys are still cranking out awesome tunes. This cd is great from start to finish. The band welcomes new drummer Annton into the group and he proves his worth behind the kit. He has some wicked drum licks, like in Pain and Control Freak.
The music itself is pretty modern sounding, bordering on thrash. There is some awesome riffs and Chronos does great vocal work on this cd. He even gives somewhat cleaning singing a try on Leviathan and it works! Some material on this cd will stick with you for a few days. I often find myself suddenly singing songs from this cd, as most songs are pretty memorable like Loaded or Black Flame of Satan. If Venom is still around and kicking, as Venom news has been a little slow lately, I hope they put out more cds like this.
