Black Metal is the second album by English heavy metal band Venom. It was released in November 1982 during the new wave of British heavy metal, and is considered a major influence on the thrash metal, death metal and black metal scenes that emerged in the 1980s and early 1990s.[3][4]
Although the album lent its name to the latter subgenre of heavy metal, today it is still debated if the album's music is speed metal, thrash metal or black metal.[5][6] AllMusic has described it as "extreme metal",[3] while Moynihan & Søderlind in their book affirm that the album "carved in stone some of [black metal's] essential features".[7] Nevertheless, its lyrics and imagery were a major influence on the early Norwegian black metal scene.[8]
