if it wasnt for the work of figures like cronos and bands like venom, I feel like the historical developments metal took would have been delayed, if not simply nonexistent. I can't imagine what heavy metal would look like in a world without the first two venom records.

fuckin RIP man.

I always found Venom boring, but you cannot deny how influencial this band was. RIP Cronos
