At night the corpses rise
And leave a srench of rotten life
Eagerly the stagger forth
To find a friend to gripe
Copulating in the grounds
Of their eternal home
Regurgitate ejaculations
On their old tomb stones

Dead Love - There's love amongst the
Dead Love - There's love amongst the dead

Licking at their blackened limbs
the zombie pleasure cries
Lucifer's immortal glory
Watch them swapping eyes
Writhing in a mound of death
Maggots under the flesh
Digging fresh arrival thus
To lovingly caress

Sing with the song of Venom, Love Amongst The Dead lyrics!


Dead Love - There's love amongst the
Dead Love - There's love amongst the dead

Go home you necromancers
Find true the words I've said
No place for mortal magic
There's love amongst the dead

The walls around the cemetary
Built high forever strong
Church of fools demand this
For the dead don't die for long
At the dawn of darkness
The keeper takes his keys
Locking out the living
For the dead don't want to leave

Dead Love - There's love amongst the
Dead Love - There's love amongst the dead

Artist Information

Profile:

One of the most important bands to ever spawn from the Metal undeground, Venom helped the creation of extreme metal. Formed in Newcastle, England in the '70s as Oberon, the band became a reality thanks to singer/bassist Conrad Lant, guitarist Jeff Dunn, and drummer Tony Bray. Soon renamed to Venom, the members decided to opt for Satanic imagery and appear in interviews, magazines and booklets as Cronos, Mantas and Abaddon respectively. Originally a mixture of Motörhead, Black Sabbath and Kiss, the band's fresh Satanic Hardcore/Metal debut, "Welcome to Hell" (1981) was though by many as the first real 100% Thrash album. Its successor, 1982's "Black Metal", while not as successful as Metallica's "Kill 'Em All" allowed the band to gain more fame, along with naming a whole generation of new bands. "At War With Satan", the band's finest hour, quickly followed as a response to the group's unexpected success with 1985's "Possessed", which unfortunately was the last album (of this early era) to feature Mantas. More line-up changes happened, as Cronos soon left to follow a career as a solo artist and Abaddon was forced to re-recruit Mantas (largely missed by the fans) along with fellow British Atomkraft's Tony Dolan (who used the moniker 'The Demolition Risk' in Venom) and Al Banes. More albums followed by they were largely ignored as Metallica, Anthrax and Megadeth's approach to Thrash received greater appreciation and as bands like Mayhem started appearing. In 1996 the band reformed as the original line-up with Cronos back in the fold. A self-titled EP was released, followed by other semi-successful albums and the re-release of all of the bands' older classics.
