Venom - At War With Satan (Original) - 01 At War With Satan (1080p) 

Spread the Message Far!

My friend was listening to this song in his room when he was a teen. His Dad walked in the room the moment there was silence followed by Cronos asking, “Are you damned in Hell?” The father paused, closed the door, and walked away. I laugh every time this part of the song comes on as a result.

As a teenager in 1980's I used to fall asleep to this song.

The lyrics are godly. This reads like one of them epic poems 10/10 And as a bass player cronos style is something I really look up to. Also the guitar riffs are insane I give it a 20/10 The dark silhouette of the creature Poised, crouched on the corner of a cliffs edge Waits eagerly, eyes glare patiently Red eyes filled with fire and torment Gleam in the frenzied brightness Across the shadowed valleys below A crack of thunder breaks the deafening silence Which once ruled the planes, the creature is unmoved By the commotion and the noise, and the blinding fork Of lightening which strikes only a few yards from where Lays it wait for something... Satan laughs, wings spread to magnificent fullness The creature stands at full glory, inhaling deeply The ice cold air each tender muscle rippling in The almighty stench of the great dimensional deity... Lucifer smiles, from the far far west a chariot of fire Emerges travelling at a tremendous speed toward the Creature. The creature laughs as if in an immense State of frenzy. The creature leaps up off the ridge And hollers with dignity in the now cloudless sky Its long red hair blowing freely in the wind... The chariot emerges and with a sharp swift movement The creature takes the reigns and flies up into the Night, howling out immortal cries, a prediction of war At war with Satan! The warriors gather slowly around The sacred city, Hell Satan screams a vengeance On the land as angels fell Tyrants pray disaster for the Land of love and trust Demons plot a way to turn The Heavens into dust The standard bearers chosen From the mass of Satan's dogs To hold the flag of Hades high Defying all the gods Satan laughs the words of war The Heavens shake with fear Armageddon sings his song The battle's ever near Let the joyous celebrations of Hell begin Who holds the keys to the seven gates? Lucifer's demonic laughter assist our quest Belial breaks free from Hell who serves the master? Sound the charge on Sabbath's day Charge! Crest the demon's souls Show yourselves in power Angels fear resist Nothing holds the storm Inform the grand master of Hades Storm the gates! Free from the pits of Hell Slaves emerge the mountain We shall destroy the accursed Heavens Advance great legions strong Crush the gates and enter free Our lord of Hell must take God's throne Heavenly inferno Spread the message far... Take to the skies! Come on... Frenzied demons - Angel's cries Lucifer commands the orgy Molten mayhem, one thousand lies Heaven fails to hold tranquility The brides of sin are wed Their price, nine holy heads White, white, white marble walls bleed red Fuck the Bastards! Come on... God's creation - all must see Heavens Hell God has fell Sound the knell Where time and space collide Mortals sit and watch the tide Of Angels crashing up against the sacred shore Without the holy grail Only evil can prevail The church of God can't hide the truth no more Can't see the light no more Light up the skies... The Demons ring the Sabbath bells Rejoice the witches chant Prepare for sacrifice by fire The blood runs black through heavens shell Declare the witches dance Nothing shall suffice The souls of Christ Drag him through the whores! Come on... Come on... Orgies filled with joyous laughter Altars of the flesh Equinox eternal glory El descends in death Satan's empire A new born flaming star Children screaming out in pain Destroy the priests Destroy their reign Tyrants pledge the souls of legion Sullen and remorse Tana turns the key of life To hear the thunder roar Ancients gather amidst the stars Mortals stare in fear The Earth is damned beneath the mist A veil of angels tears White clouds of life are turning black The virgin pure she fears attack Come on... You are damned... Children of pleasure move Appear amongst us The dark Lord has opened his jaws Raise for Satanic queen Ye sons and daughters Take heed the flame forever learn Now is come salvation Strength and the kingdom of our Satanic majesty You'll always learn! Are you damned in Hell? Damned in Hell Lilith holds the black heart in her hands The blood flows Desecration of God's holy shrine Armageddon Hahahahahahahaha Pandemonium burns in the night The Hell spawn Celebrations at Sabbath's galore Unite with mother whore Take that bitch We shall not be destroyed... Satan laughs, damnation has sunk its talons deep Into the womb of utopia spilling forth great streams Of virginal purity and bliss The golden throne of tetragrammaton is ablaze Satanic majesty sits proud, the joyous drones of celebration Enact scenes of blasphemy, lust and destruction Raping the holy trinity the Sabbath chimes the tunes of bless And sanity, the Heavens in their last throes of death Gabriel and his arc angels falling ever downwards through the Fires of pandemonium to the dark deserted depths of Hell Their broken bloodstained wings scorched the by raging inferno Lie battered by the shores of Styx Weary from the battle they seek refuge, bathing their wounds In the blood of a million martyrs While celebration of the rape of the heavens grows strong The keys to the seven gates of Hell lie momentarily unguarded Raging flames carved by the innocence of the angel's hearts Will release forth their wealth of centuries of God-lost Souls once robbed of their destiny in Heaven's golden palace An unseen presence breathes a never before felt pangs of mortal hatred And anger deep into the pounding hearts of the angels Once more the creature is summoned to deliver a declaration of War At war with Satan! The angels gather slowly around The sacred city Hell Gabriel screams a vengeance of the Land as angels fell Martyrs pray disaster for the Land of hate and scorn The Angels curse the day the antichrist Was ever born... Bathory Celtic Frost and Possessed are some of my favorite bands

the best extreme metal long song of all time, its like a story

13:18 to 13:48 this part ..its like "last hopes, last remembrances before entering HELLLLLLLLLL"

9:05 greatest guitar riff ever

I remember when this was released back in the day and how everybody was freaking out about how this song took up all of Side 1 of the album! Damn near 20 minutes' worth of Venom stretching out and actually not doing half bad, all things considered. I actually kinda like this, these days, but still, give me Venom when they're at their fastest and most furious, their most chaotic and crazed most of the time.

Venoms finest track

My uncles used to party to this song on vinyl and replay it over and over way way back in the day. Damn good song.

Great piece , Abaddon shines on this .

13:18 to 13:48 sounds so angelic

For anybody who likes this version. Demo 83 version is a must. Once again on You Tube.

Greatest metal double sleeve ever ❤

５７歳からの手紙 当時 この曲を知ってビックリした！ EPレコード丸々一枚の４３分超大作 これぞ ヴェノム。 これぞ ブラックメタル。 この荒さがたまらない！ 洗練されたヘヴィメタルじゃ無い！ テクニックでは無い、、

Best Band Ever. Change my mind.

Still 🔥 after all these years!

Ritual complete!

Well, since i'm stuck at home with this corona stay-at-home thing, I finally have the time to listen to this whole song. hahaha.

Knock knock... Venom Open the Gates of hell...

Quel plaisir de réécouter cet album malsain... Dans tous les sens du terme... Mais on aime !😊😇😈

EPIC!

I feel blessed!

We are in the last part of this. Most epic dichotomy. Between good and bad. Hell has won. I grew up on this, only now do I realise wow monumental is is, metaphorically. as a 13 year old, it was my fight against established religion and authority. As a 50 year old it paints a monumental epic of the good vs the damned. An eternal battle. I'm glad I have cancer. I wont have to see this out.

My first album some early 80 must be, still love it !

Let the joyous celebrations of Hell begin.

The day this tape came in the mail,i was 16.went to my brothers apt,his roommate let me in,we smoked a pinter joe joint and blasted this tape...we was so stoned,he was so scared,tripping out...back then it was van halen.acdc ect.......lol....what a moment...opened the door to slayer.king diamond...ect...good times,good music...people got along....

Satan! This is great!

9:05 fuck yeah!!!

This has always been one of my rock god songs!

best metal album cover ever

I may be a good Christian boy, but I know good music when I hear it!

Magnifico """" At war witch satan

M A S T E R S

Dude have you heard of amebix? They're a crust-punk band from the 80s and they had have been inspired by them. Very similar sound. Epic Fn middle earth-like anarchy filled satanic lyrics. And the singer is the lead bassist! Cmon now... Arise, axeman, drink and be merry are some starters...

8:38 that bass

... great classic cult track from mighty VENOM 🇬🇧's 'At War With Satan' full-lenght (1984), this is the original version and only original is real (don't 'like' the edited crap versions/ uploads) ... 🤘 🇬🇧

I used to fall asleep to this too!

17:25 for the epilogue

very radical

I have the t-shirt from this album and I keep it as a treasure.

At 5:36, "Down with Heaven, You are Mine !". I always liked pointing that out to people. My friend bought this album when it came out in 1984. I think it scared him; he sold it to me for $5. Title track songwriting is genius: you have a fade-out at the end as the lyrics turn pro-Christian ("Priest denies the day the Antichrist was ever born"), so it presents itself as an everlasting battle between good and evil.

😍😍😍

My grandmother used to sing this song to me to help me fall asleep.

Truly ungodly, straight from the bowels of HELL! Masterful. HAIL VENOM!!!

Esto pasara a la historia para que las edades venideras... Mantengan la flama encendida

何十年経っても不滅ですね。

Este es el himno nacional de mas de uno que yo he visto por ahí

大好きです

sure, venom was an regular at my record player back in the early/ mid 80's but even back then we laughed at idiots takin' them way too serious, it's kiss with limited playing skills and comic magazine lyrics ! get over it children.

I really hope they remaster the old venom albums personally I think the original recordings are a bit too quiet

Who holds the keys to the seven gates?

Come on aaarrrrggggghhhhh

MUITO BOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

11:22

I am no Satanist, but I really like this. Makes me want to break shit!

Shit, politics change so fast. Last time i checked they were in league with him.
