VENOM at their best!

"This is a great compilation consisting of tracks from the two out-of-print cd's "Temples Of Ice" and "Waste Lands". Not every track from these two classic albums are included; however, if you can find a copy of the cd "Old, New, Borrowed And Blue" you will have every track from those albums. These tracks all feature vocalist Tony Dolan- Cronos is not on this disc. The only other all-original Venom album to feature Dolan, "Prime Evil", is (luckily) still available."
Confusing

"i am a fan of the cronos-era venom. as many are aware, venom acquired the services of 'the demolitian man' after cronos departed in the wake of 'calm before the storm'. this disc seems to be billed as a sort of overview of the band, yet virtually all of the tracks feature their latter-day vocalist. i had been somehow led to believe that 'court of death' contained unreleased cronos-era songs. the liner notes are (intentionally) vague, and, i suspect, the release is exploitative -no doubt trotted out to capitalize on the new album "Resurrection,' featuring the original line-up. can anyone provide actual song-by-song details for this cd? it would be much appreciated. it is likely that cronos appears on a track or two, but i'd like to be sure..."
