LYRICS:
The warriors gather slowly around
The sacred city, Hell
Satan screams a vengeance
On the land as the 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 prays
free from Hell who serves the master
Sound the charge on Sabbaths 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 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 the 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
Alters 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
Tyrant pledge the souls of legions
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
Hahahahahhahaha
Pandemonium burns in the night
The Hell spawn
Celebrations at Sabbats 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 the 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 Burlesque
and insanity, 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
lay battered by the shores of the styx.
Weary from the battle they seek refuge, bathing their wounds
in the blood of a million martyrs while the celebration of rape
of the heavens grows strong the keys to the seven gates of Hell
lie momentarily unguarded.
The raging flames calmed by the innocence of the angel's hearts
release forth their wealth of centuries of God's lost
souls once robbed of their true destiny in Heaven's golden palace.
An unseen presence breeds the never before felt pains of mortal hatred
and anger deep into the pounding hearts of the angels.
Once more the creature is summoned to deliver the declaration of
war,
At war with Satan!
The angels gather slowly around
The sacred city Hell
Gabriel screams a vengeance of the
Land as the angels fell
Martyrs prey disaster for the
Land of hate and scorn
The Angels curse the day the antichrist
Was ever born...

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.

[@ga8986]

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

[@jamesvanderpool8178]

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?

[@Tripleseis88]

Wow i was just looking for that part 13:18 13:48 🕸️

[@MaskedRiderChris]

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.

[@lonewretch]

Like... not when they started importing new band members and wearing upright crucifixes?? That's when it died for me.. it got better, once chronos realised...

[@lonewretch]

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.

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...

[@xullux5915]

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.

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.

But Kiss also had limited playing skills and comic book lyrics... 🤔

[@ianswift3521]

i would not say this shows limited playing skills whatsoever. this song is both a testament to their ability to construct elaborate arrangements and repeating motifs, leads that hook you in, and riffs that keep you there.
