VENOM: Albums Ranked (From Worst to Best) - Rank 'Em All🐐
Вставка
- Опубліковано 16 чер 2024
- In todays video I'm going to rank Venom's full discography. Venom is the grandfathers of extreme metal. Welcome to Hell and Black Metal was the albums that kicked off the extreme metal branch. Black, Death and Thrash Metal would probably have sounded very different if it wasn't for the early record from this band. Abaddon, Mantas and Cronos were the trailblazing trio that changed metal forever but the band suffered several lineup changes and some albums didn't live up to the hype so their career took a dive in the late eighties and through the 90s but in more recent years their rightful place in the history books have been restored. So today we're going to rank all full-length albums from the NWOBHM legends Venom. Enjoy!

Stay Heavy! 🤘
thank you for your hard work ,,,your videos keep getting better in quality and information.....but please .....
why do you purposly avoid Annihilator in your rankings ?...ive seen a few videos where Annihilator should have been top 3 if not higher !!!! they still have a huge european fan base ...and are highly respected in america
Jeff Waters deserves credit as an important influence on most speed /thrash metal bands since the Annihilators start in 1984....its undeniable
As you said... Venom was the grandather of Extreme Metal... Lay down your soul to the gods Rock and Roll!!!
Black Metal!
agree, but more precisely Black Metal
I met Cronos in 2006 and spoke with him for a while. He's the real deal, and so easy to talk to. It was such an honor!
Interesting factoid... Cronos created that line with Judas Priest's "Fall to your knees and repent if you please." from EXCITER in mind.
@3cityindust3 RIDING HELL'S STALLIONS BAREBACK AND FREE
I remember going into our local record store in 1981 (I was 15) and the owner motioned me over to the counter as he knew I was into heavier music. He had a box of albums he was just putting out for sale and he showed me Welcome To Hell and said it had just come in. He didn't know anything about them but from the cover and song titles, he figured they would be up my alley. I took a chance and bought it and brought it home. From the first moment the needle touched the record, I knew it was something special that would change the heavy music world...and it did. I've been a Venom fan since then, and even though they've had their ups and downs, they will always hold a special place in my musical heart. Just as Black Sabbath were the progenitors of heavy metal itself, Venom were the progenitors of thrash/black/death metal. They deserve their place in the annals of music history alongside the greatest of them all.
Cheers!
Black Sabbath were the most important.
Diamond Head were the best.
Metallica were the biggest.
Celtic Frost were the heaviest (To Mega Therion).
But VENOM were the most badass!
Venom also hold a special place amongst my all-time favorite metal acts. Their stuff is totally timeless
Black and thrash sure but Venom had zero elements of death metal.
The unholy trinity
1. Black Metal
2. Welcome to Hell
3. at War With Satan
Great to see Prime Evil ranked so high. It’s so underrated
Yes, it's amazing!
@@thomasangelripper No, but it’s still good
I honestly love prime evil lol
my dad put on Black Metal when I was 5 yrs old, opened all the windows in the house, and pissed off every neighbor around, he played it so loud the needle on the record player would skip, the second the intro to Black Metal came on, I thought that was the coolest thing i'd ever heard in my young life, cooler then Eruption, since that day I love Venom, and I know my dad is with my father in hell rocking to Black Metal
hehe, damn. :) cool dad. Cheers! ❄️
I'm an AOR/melodic rock fan but for some strange reason I love all things Venom. I bought everything they ever released, including all the EPs. They rock!!
Haha, thats a strange combo. :) Cheers!
I love both types. I absolutely love the Samson Best Of: Burning Emotion release! Even more than their Bruce Dickinson years. And then there's U.K., who are just as poppy as they are proggy.
I’s cool that you rate Prime Evil so highly! Respect.
Cheers!
Especially considering you actually played on some of these albums
Venom is a bad ass band I’m glad you ranked all there albums
Cheers!
Welcome to Hell is an insane masterpiece! completely blew me away as Maiden/Priest/Saxon fan.
Black Metal couldn’t top that shockwave, but still a great album. Also their early singles are great!
Much later I discovered their demo stuff with Clive Archer on vocals, its like the bridge between
Heavy Metal and the devastating sound of Welcome to Hell, brilliant work. Venom reigns supreme!
Cheers! 🤘
black metal is the best black metal album ihmo, even better than welcome to hell
At War with Satan might be my favorite sing ever, the rest of the record is good, but that one song ... My goodness. It has everything you look for when defining a masterpiece. Its an absolute riff festival with amazing songwriting and theatrical elements. It moves almost like show tunes LMAO, you really feel the plot of the song driven by its more dramatic moments. But I digress. Venom is awesome.
Yes, that song is awesome. Cheers!
Definitely my favorite. Manitou being second.
Finally, a decent Venom album ranking!
thanks boss, Cheers!
It was so hard finding a decent venom album ranking just shows that most people only listen to the first two albums and don't listen to anything after
@@XenoMorphGaming79 I've been a Venom fan since '82 and I always buy their new albums. Everything was better back then, not just Venom. But I still like them.
Prime Rankings:
Note: I'm only going to do My Top 5 Favorite Albums, I've only listened to these Albums.
5 - Welcome to Hell (It surprises Me that this came out in 1981)
4 - Black Metal
3 - At War with Satan
2 - Prime Evil (Underrated Album)
1 - Possessed
Possessed really got Me into Venom.
Cheers!
Possessed is a masterpiece
Totally
It’s about time someone did a solid ranking of Venom’s entire discography! Badass!
Cheers!
I always liked Venom’s “Possessed” even though it has gotten a bad rap.
Yeah itsnot that bad
@@RuthlessMetalYT …I don’t know why that album has gotten some flack.
@@mindmesh7566 I think it's funny that people blame it on bad production. Like, this ain't Metallica! Bad production was part of their sound, and even then, it was better produced than the first two. Title track, Satanarchist, and Too Loud are classics. Too Loud was recorded too slow though.
I had it on picture disc
@@hmpz36911 Only the first album had terrible production. All the Proceeding albums, The production improved (by a decent margin at least), So it makes little sense to me when people Say those albums have Bad production.
Not a band ive been into a lot, but lately their first 3 albums grew on me.
Also I'd love to see your ranking on Florida's heavy metal masters Savatage, heavily underrated and one of my favorite metal bands ever.
Yes, I haven't planned to rank them right now and I need to listen more to their last records to do so. but some day it would make sense... Cheers!
@@RuthlessMetalYT for me Hall of the Mountain King is the first one and Fight for the Rock is the last. Sirens, Dungeons are calling, Power of the night and Gutter Ballet are top, the rest are neither here nor there, except Edge of Thorns, which is near the top
Great video! Venom is the GOAT 🐐 🖤
Cheers! 🐐
I think you have the ranking exactly right. It’s really nice to see Prime Evil so high because it’s a fantastic album and highly underrated . I knew Al Barnes around this time. He was a really great guy and deserved more success than he got.
awesome, say hi from me. ;) Cheers! 🤘
Thanks for the kind words 🤘
Nice!! Been waiting for this one
In my opinion, CALM BEFORE THE STORM and TEMPLES OF ICE are underrated. My Fave is WELCOME TO HELL.
yeah, I agree. Cheers!
I love Calm... and that style continued with the Cronos band.
I agree about the Waste Lands album, underrated, and a less aggressive Sabbat feel especially "Cursed"....Dolan at times resembles Martin. That album also reminds me of the UK band Seventh Angel.
Yes Sir! Cheers!
Which Sabbat? Japanese or British Band
@@ryanritchey3574 UK
Seventh Angel is awesome.
Venom has some really cool album covers
They sure have.
Satan laughs... I remember listening to At War With Satan when it was released. Sitting in a graveyard, high on mushroom tea in the rain with my crew of metalheads. The most evil lyrics of it's time, and I was a fan of Mercyful Fate. Thanks for reminding me there's Venom I haven't heard yet.
Time to check out those albums then. ;) Cheers!
My Top 5 - VENOM albums are.
#1 - BLACK METAL.
#2 - WELCOME TO HELL.
#3 - POSSESSED.
#4 - PRIME EVIL.
#5 - INTO THE DEPTHS.
That's all for me folks.🤘
Cheers! 🤘
Well done, again, my friend. This old-school headbanger remembers listening to WTH/BM/AWWS on my Walkman all night long. Kind of sad to see what has become of these guys, as they really were the foundation for almost all speed/thrash and certainly black metal bands thereafter. But everything they released up to 1986's live Eine kleine Nachtmusik is essential listening.
thanks boss, Cheers! 🤘
Been waiting for this video
Cheers!
THANK YOU!!! I've been waiting for this one. Cronos said in an early interview he wanted a band that was dark like Black Sabbath, fast like Judas Priest and had the attitude of Motorhead. That is exactly what those first albums were. Prime Evil was a badass album when it came out. Well done on your part RM. If you haven't done Motorhead yet that would be a great one for your next video. Cheers!
They have so many albums it will take forever
Another excellent video. Mostly agree, with Resurrection bumped higher up because I absolutely adore this album!
Thanks, cheers!
I saw Venom with Danzig back in 2019 what a kick ass show man. Both bands played well I had a great time. Great list as always \m/
thanks boss. Cheers!
Can’t wait to check this out later today!
Cheers!
Yesssssssssssss This was I was waiting for
Cheers! 🤘
Yeah man, i love Cast in stone! The guitartone is wicked ! And i love all the songs. It really has an evil atmospheric sound. Bought it in 97 , still banging on it! Hah!
BTW I love this channell. Cheerz bro !
Yeah it has a bit of that 90's thickness to it. Thank you! Cheers!
Awesome to see some love to Waste Lands. Defenitely an underrated one!
Cheers Jim
Cheers!
Haven't gone too deep into Venom's discography, but those first 3 albums are killer. At War With Satan is one hell of an epic track. I'll have to do a proper dive into their music, great video man.
Cheers!
I'm 42 now, but I was 9 when I got into Venom, thanks to having a legendary dad, who then got me hooked on Voivod and Slayer!
The rest was down to me!🤘
My all time favourite of Venom is Welcome to Hell, but Black Metal, At War With Satan and Primevil are very close behind. I am in total agreement with you about the albums post 2008, I'm not a fan of them at all, including Hell, I bought it, listened to it once and ever since then it's been on the shelf.
hehe, that's awesome! :) Cheers! 🤘
Great video!
Your ranking is spot on man!
Prime Evil (1989) is a fun record.
I’m listening to the CD right now!
It’s crazy to think I was only 2 years
Old when that album came out.
Thanks man! You're a baby. ;) cheers
This channel is great!
Thanks boss
Welcome to hell is my favorite album.😄👍🤘🤘
I think Resurrection is massively underrated. All There Is Fear, War Against Christ, and Thirteen are some of their best songs. The production is killer as well. Easily the best in their discography !!!
no, not even close. :) Cheers!
Totally agree. Resurrection is an awesome album.
agreed !
First three albums are untouchable. Black Metal is my number one, then Welcome To Hell and At War With Satan. Also I like Prime Evil and underrated The Waste Lands.
Maybe you could do rankings of Motorhead, Running Wild or Voivod?
Cheers!
Yeah I might get to them some sunny day. :) I have a few others planned first but.. Cheers!
@@RuthlessMetalYTYes, too many good bands on the list :) But we have time :)
@@daroblackheart383 yes, there are too many bands and too little time. :)
@@RuthlessMetalYT Motorhead has too many records!
my fav is Prime Evil, it's a great thrashy record with very good riffs and songwriting, the epic title track and blackened are the priest, parasite, skeleton dance are genius
Good stuff! Cheers!
I like "Insane", "Parasite", the title track and above all Tony Dolan's bass playing.
My Ranking.
1. Welcome to Hell (I’ve listened to this album thousands of times)
2. Black Metal
3. At War with Satan
4. Prime Evil
5. Possessed
I don’t know how to rank the rest.
Cheers!
Venom was one of the first bands I saw live... 1985... what a show :D
Oh, must have been amazing to see them back then. Cheers!
Where ?
@@marcocappa3738 Munich :D
@@grimlog4617thanks!!
Awesome channel! Liked, subbed
Thanks boss
I’m a big Anvil fan like to see you rank them all
Maybe some day. :)
Hell fockin yeeah! Love Venom.
Remember being 12 and listening to "Black Metal" feeling like I found the real shit! Always gonna have a soft spot for this band.
cheers
If you don't know the first three Venom albums, do you even know extreme metal? Those three and Prime Evil are essential, in my opinion.
Correct
I don't even know any of their albums not even one but I'm into the heaviest subgenres of Death Metal lol
Cool ranking! I only know the two first records, but they’re amaaazing!
What about doing a ranking of Danish thrashers Artillery?
yeah, that might happen some day. we'll see. :) Cheers!
I love the rank em all series. My all time favorite is ANNIHILATOR and It would be cool if you gave them a rank em all
Don't know if you would like that, I would go hard on them. ;) but I probably will some day.
@@RuthlessMetalYT it's ok. I know you stick with the metal roots but I like your show and I would love to see it. Thx!
Perfect ranking ❤
🤘🤘
Venom.....one of my all time fav bands. I still follow them today and still listen to all of their albums avidly. Prime Evil is my all time fav, followed by Possessed, however even the recent Storm the Gates is high on my list.
I also do like Mantas's versión of Venom (Venom Inc)......thus I follow both versions without any hesitation.
I like the new albums, and have been a fan since '82. Just imagine if Storm the Gates was their 1st album in '81.
Cheers! 🤘
Good Job/Up with the Horns 🤟
🤟🤟
I have seen Venom 2-3 times live, and will see them again next year.
Awesome!
🤘🏻wow🐐 great 🐐list🤘🏻
Thanks boss
@@RuthlessMetalYT 🤘🏻Metal is forever🤘🏻
Black leather hounds, faster than sound
Black out the amps, now it's night
Great video, man!
Thanks boss
Again ranking makes pretty much sense to me...although I always have trouble choosing their number 1 between the debut and sophomore. *And R.I.P. Hank Von Helvete.*
RIP Hank.
Live Like An Angel , Die Like A Devil was my introduction to this band on SPEED KILLS 5...
Ah, the Speed Kills compilation series is legendary. :) Cheers! 🤘
A few dudes from Venom Inc watched your video!! 🤘🤘🤘
Cool, Ive interviewed then twice actually.
@@RuthlessMetalYT have you recorded it? If yes why don't you post it??!!
@@sassaniandynasty3796 I did interviews with bands back in the early 2000s and some around 2015, only written interviews. I might do something with them perhaps just add some background music while the text is up on screen if there is an interest for it, I have like 100 interviews on my harddrive with lots of thrash and speed metal bands.
Interesting stuff. I thought Resurrection had really great sound, I put it in 3rd after 1st 2. It proved they could play, to their critics worst fears
Cheers!
yes!!
Happy someone finally ranked Venom. I mean they're only one of the most important bands in Metal. I do agree that not all of their albums are great but I like all their records. And, in my opinion, the Tony Dolan era records are underrated. Great list!
Thanks, Cheers! 🤘
Fair ranking (as you usually do!) and agree Prime Evil hasn't been heard by enough people who class themselves as metal fans. I'd rate Fallen Angels a little higher but other than that... spot on!
People forget just how shocking Venom were when they 1st came out. In the UK we had the Friday Rock Show broadcast at 10pm and the host Tommy Vance bet his fellow DJ the host of the VERY popular Mon to Fri breakfast show £100 ( a LOT back then) that he wouldn't play Venom's 'Warhead' 7" single in full on his show. Of course the money got pledged to charity and said track was indeed played, at about 8am , to approximately 20 million pop loving unsuspecting listeners many of whom had never even heard heavy metal let alone Venom before! Some people wrote in to the BBC, their local newspaper or music magazine asking if Venom were actually real!! Many could not believe a 'noise' like that would be recorded and released as official music! Well funny!
Of course us kids... we 'got it'. Oh yes we got it straight away. Extreme Metal was born!!!
yeah I've seen some people talk about Fallen Angel, I must admit that i haven't listened to it more than a handful of times, maybe I've missed something. :) Cheers! 🤘
Great video! Can you please do Destruction?
ua-cam.com/video/nHiFPnHrm0w/v-deo.html
@@RuthlessMetalYT Many thanks!
Cheers!
I’m kinda ashamed to say this, but I am more familiar with the bands that Venom influenced than I am them. The only albums I’ve heard are the first four, and I’d rank them in the same order as you, Black Metal was a game changer that still holds up today. 🤘🏻
Check out the dony dolan years.
I love Resurrection. One of their best 5 albums.
Cheers!
COOL!! CHEERS BRO💀💀💀💀
Cheers!
Excellent. I was hoping to see the Venom Inc album on here, as it's also Venom imo. Where would you place Ave on the list?
haven't listened to it since it came out but I thought it was better than most recent Venom albums. Cheers! 🐐
@@RuthlessMetalYT Definitely!
Don't forget Mpire Of Evil, that was the Mantas and D-man band originally called Prime Evil, to carry on from that album, it was only when Abaddon agreed to some shows they made it Venom Inc, made an album, and sacked Abaddon, and kept on with he name. I miss Mpire of Evil.
Fuck Yes VENOM!!!!
Cheers! 🐐
🤘thx
Cheers!
It was Venom and Sodom that got me into the BM and DM genre. I honestly can´t deside which Venom album I would put as my number one. But it is Welcome To Hell or Black Metal and both albums means alot to me. But when it comes to Sodom I can definetly say that my number one Sodom album is In The Sign Of Evil. I love that album.
In the sign of evil is majestic.
Great ranking and similar to my list.
Thanks boss, Cheers!
Som vanligt klockrent starkt jobbat och som du säkert vet så är egentligen bara top 3 viktiga för mig. Keep on dishin’ out the goods of the evil Metal gods
ja, de är ju de bästa men de finns andra pärlor med även om de är av mer varierande kvalla. tack och bock!
I don't care what anyone says, Prime Evil is a fucking great album, after all these years it's still one of my top 3 Venom albums. People often hate the Tony "Demolition Man" Dolan era, but to me it's like 80's Black Sabbath without Ozzy, it's misunderstood, ignored by many haters and it gets a lot of undeserved criticism.
Yeah, the real fans love the Demolition man era too. It's mostly people that just listened to the first 2-3 albums that complain because they haven't investigated any of the other records.
Tony is a great bass player and singer he is also amazing in venom Inc which imo is better than anything venom has released on the last 10years imo. I'm still waiting for when venom Inc will be doing a second album
As with Black Sabbath's Headless Cross (with that other Tony), anyone who doesn't rank Prime Evil high in the discography is simply wrong. Taste doesn't factor in - it's objective greatness.
@@sinbysin666 90% of so called black Sabbath fans don't even know who Tony Martin even is
Prime Evil is actually my number one Venom album. Always has been
You should rank all the Baron Rojo albums next. :)
I haven't listened much to them. Cheers!
Black Metal was the album that introduced me to the band in 1985 when was a 15 year old and moving into more extreme metal and away a bit from Maiden. It's still my go to album for Venom. Classic.
good times, Cheers!
Oh, yeah!
Cheers! 🤘
Finally
i always enjoyed the Manitou cassette single with the Venom Dutch Radio Interview b-side
Cheers! 🤘
Yup, I was the 666th "Like" for this post, and my favorite band !
Scary, Cheers!;)
I just wanted to let the world know that I purchased Cast In Stone back in 97, so it is not entirely true that no one cared when this album came out!
Cheers! 🤘
AWWS definitely the best. The A-Side alone is enough to give it the 1st place.
Have u done Accept yet? Also great video love me a bit of Venom keep up the great work
No I haven't but I probably will some sunny day. Cheers! 🤘
I'm happy you gave credit to Venom for 3 genres. (Black, Thrash & Extreme Metal)
they deserve that recognition. Now if only people would admit that Motorhead is also influential to Thrash Metal....AND....also the first "Crossover" band. They loved Punk & Punks loved them.
black, thrash and death metal. ;) extreme metal includes black and thrash and a few other genres. ;) Cheers! 🤘
I believe Motorhead started the D-beat. Just listen to those old Phil Taylor drums, Iron Fist, Ace of Spades, and more, that's the D-beat.
The first Black Metal band. And to all you youngsters who say they're not Black Metal, they made up the term so sit down kids. Back in the 80s when I was a teen, Black Metal bands were extreme metal bands that sung lyrics embracing satanism and satan. So among the fans and bands, a Black Metal band was Venom, Possessed, Slayer, Celtic Frost, Bathory, Onslaught; etc. Even the more conventional sounding heavy metal band Mercyful Fate was called Black Metal. There was a reason why Mercyful Fate was on shows opening for Venom, Slayer, Destruction; etc. instead of Iron Maiden, Judas Priest; etc., despite them not being a "thrash" band. It had to do with the lyrics and imagery. I remember an old interview during Slayer a little after Hell Awaits came out. Slayer ended up being placed on a bill in Europe with standard heavy metal bands, and his comment was: "We had a lot of people buzzing when we played, being that we're a black metal band". And friends of mine and other fans would always address bands like Sodom, Destruction, Venom, Possessed, etc. as "Black Metal". As well as many underground magazines in the mid 80s: Kick Ass. So kids need to STFU when they try to say otherwise because they were NOT there during the 1st wave of Black Metal.
Yeah, the early stuff I can get into the second wave is harder for me even if there are a few cool bands and albums from that era too. Cheers! 🤘
I remember I bought Black metal vinyl back in the day. Just because the album cover. Listened to it nonstop! Deserves #1👍
Have you ever ranked Metal Massacre comps? Those were a pretty big deal!
No, I haven't talked about 'em, but I'm considering it, that one plus the speed kills comps. Cheers!
Love Welcome to Hell and Black Metal
I would rank Metal Black a bit higher but on the whole I agree as always 😀. I am looking forward for more rank em all.
Yeah, I had a good time with Metal Black when it came out
Cheers
Heavens On Fire & Black Metal my all time fave Venom songs
Cheers! 🤘
@@RuthlessMetalYT Luv the channel & content Ruthless 🤘a Deicide or Cannibal Corpse Rank em All would be cool some day ✊
What about a speed metal band called VECTOM from Germany. I would like to know about them, Have you heard of them? I have two albums by them. ( they were hard to locate ) speed revolution from 1985 and Rules of mystery from 1986 probably not much to say about them. I do think they were overlooked. I believe they have a third album, but seriously hard to find. I really like them even if they do border on bad, haha. this was a great episode for me. Venom albums I had no idea were out there. so thank you dude.
Yes kinda a German version of Venom. They had the right style but their music was perhaps not as strong as some other similar bands.
@@RuthlessMetalYT Agreed. Thank you for your reply . After digging deeper today I believe the total catalogue is two albums.
*IN YOUR MOST FAVORITE VENOM ALBUM "BLACK METAL" (1982) IT ENDS WITH A PREVIEW FOR MY FAVORITE VENOM ALBUM "AT WAR WITH SATAN" (1984) AND IN THAT ALBUM IT DOESN'T ONLY MENTION "CALM BEFORE THE STORM" (1987) BUT IT ALSO MENTIONS YOUR LEAST-FAVORITE VENOM ALBUM "STORM THE GATES" (2018) {same goes for the At War With Satan demo from 1983.}*
Cheerios
*AND I BET THE 1995 CRONOS ALBUM "VENOM" WOULD GET MIXED-UP AS A VENOM ALBUM!!*
Lay down your soul to the gods rock n' roll!!! Love it! I have Black Metal and Welcome To Hell on vinyl and it still sounds great! I can't even count how many time i tried to get a proper recording of the intro to In League backwards....until i turned the spindle motor around on my turntable and got it to play proper speed! LOL! Im gonna burn your souls......crush your bones......Im gonna make you bleed....you're gonna bleed for me! LOVE IT!!!
Cheers! 🤘
Huge Venom fan here...been listening to Venom since the 80's and they still remain one of my fav bands today. I love all albums by Venom and my favourite 3 albums are :
1) Possessed
2 ) From the very deprhs
3) Prime Evil
Cheers!
AWESOME PICKS AGREED !!!
thanks, cheers!
I pretty much like your ranking. I would switch number one and two and probably rank from the very depths a little higher. I like prime evil high on your list, in general I like your ranking videos.
Thanks boss!
I heared the album Welcome to Hell in te early eighties maybe a year before I heared the album Black Metal. To me Welcome to Hell was more evil. Black Metal included more rock`n`roll and humour. But that´s just one perspective. I have a great respect for your opinion and I admire your videos.
thanks boss Cheers!
Pioneros. Un saludo.
Cheers! 🤘
Hells headbangers recently released the Tony Dolan era albums on cd. I snagged all three of them right away!
awesome! Cheers! 🐐
Please do Bathory next! 🤟
Some sunny day. ;) Cheers! 🤘
I'm not a fan of ranking albums in general and regarding Venom I really like all of their albums. I completely agree though that the first three albums are the best, together with the singles from that era. All the other albums I would put on 4th place, because I really like them more or less equally. There was a time when I only wanted to hear the more recent albums and at other times I get nostalgic for the Tony Dolan era.
Yeah its just a ranking I can enjoy some of the mid ranked albums at times too. Cheers!
Yes one of my favourite band
Cheers! 🤘
