*** The "dirtiness" of the riffing and general punkishness of the sound also proved to be very, very influential to crust punk and arguably helped shape the genre more than even Motorhead, Crass, and Discharge.

Venom is a metal band from the United Kingdom. To try and stand out from the other artists, they were the first band to introduce a highly satanic image and lyrical approach, thus becoming the very first First Wave of BlackMetal band. Their fast music was also very influential to the ThrashMetal genre. Despite helping launch two of the most prominent genres of metal today, even in their most popular years they were criticized for lacking musical skills. However, they made up for that with enthusiasm and good showmanship.

*** There's also the HarshVocals (Venom's vocals don't sound all that harsh today, but they must have compared to what else was big in HeavyMetal at the time) and the noisy, trebly guitar sound. But they're sill a LOT less intense than anything considered BlackMetal today.
