![]() ![]() There’s no bonus in this Venom montage, but you know, it’s a bit of fuckin’ history and it is pretty entertaining as an unintentional parody. Remember you can always share any sound with your friends on social media and other apps or upload your own sound clip. On the other hand, when you come across someone who really DOES have excellent, clever, funny stage banter - or ultra-serious banter that actually makes sense - it’s a big bonus. In this category you have all sound effects, voices and sound clips to play, download and share. Or maybe you actually realize that the banter is knuckle-dragging gibberish, but you’re willing to cut the dude a break because the music is so fuckin’ good, and because it’s fun to be talked to by someone whose music you dig even if he can’t hear you talking back. If you think a band is killing it with the music, you’re more inclined to convince yourself that the frontman is killing it with his repartee, too. Here’s my theory about stage banter: the more into the music you are, and the more fucked up you are, the more willing you are to applaud and yell over utter nonsense being uttered on stage between songs.

Somehow, I’d never heard this until a good friend sent me a link to an mp3 of the single yesterday. This 8+ minute bootleg montage of Chronos communing with the punks, metalheads, and assorted refugees from the law in the audience was subsequently released as a seven-inch “single” on the Ecstatic Peace label. The only part of that story that’s legend is who did it - because someone plainly did. Legend has it that a Black Flag roadie recorded the entire show - and then cut out all the songs in Venom’s set except a few nano-seconds of the guitar intros and outros, leaving behind the between-song stage banter of Venom’s frontman Chronos. Also on the bill: Black Flag, as then fronted by Henry Rollins. On April 2, 1986, the seminal British metal band Venom played a gig in Trenton, New Jersey, at a punk club called City Gardens.
