venom's first 3 albums are amazing (welcome to hell, black metal and at war with satan) fucking awesome stuff, but at the same time, totally tongue in cheek. (they were a big influence on american hardcore bands; j mascis is a fan)
the live clip...i don't know, they are so bad i think they are great, especially since most metal bands are so into technical proficiancy; the fact that they are so sloppy makes them some good, i guess.
something funny definitely. i'll search on youtube for earlier videos of venom when they wore make up and spandex
