CRONOS On Reuniting Classic VENOM Lineup - "The Last Thing I Want To Do Is Get Onstage With Those Other Two Doddery Old F#&kers And Put On A Sub-Par Performance"
In a new interview with Louder Sound, Venom frontman, Cronos, discusses the birth of black metal, the success of former support band Metallica, and why there’s zero chance of the classic lineup getting back together. An excerpt follows...
Q: You haven’t spoken to Jeff Dunn and Tony Bray in 20 years, so the odds on a reunion are… what?
Cronos: “Less than zero. I owe them nothing, and they’ve got nothing I want. We still get fans saying, ‘The Venom Legions want the old line-up back together!’ We tried in the 90s and it wasn’t well received. The last thing I want to do is get onstage with those other two doddery old fuckers and put on a sub-par performance. I’m getting better album sales now, so why the fuck would I want to go back to that? I just want Venom to be great.”
Q: But after all you achieved together - changing the course of heavy music, and influencing so many great bands that followed - don’t you feel sad that there’s no relationship between the three of you now?
Cronos: “Yeah, of course it’s sad. But we had a blast, and I’ll cherish those memories.”
Venom wrapped up their 2022 tour schedule with a performance at Knotfest Columbia on December 9.
