As previously reported, UK black metal legends VENOM are preparing for their Scandinavian Tour later this month.

The opening acts will definitely be Scandinavian bands says frontman Cronos: "I asked our agents in Scandinavia to select some local talent to open the shows. There's certainly no shortage of metal bands over there, so I've chosen a few that I thought would be ideal, but I've left the final decision to the agency."

In other live news, Venom and their management are also discussing other live plans with their agents for later this year. An American tour and some dates in Australia are in the cards, there's also talks of some shows in Japan and across Europe.

In new album news, the recording schedule for the new Venom album is well underway. The band have already laid the majority of the backing tracks and reports so far are that everyone is very excited by the results.
