Lineup changes and departure of Lant (1987–1996)
重組、Lant離團 (1987-1999)
Two guitarists, Mike Hickey and Jim Clare, were hired
to replace Dunn. Their fifth album, 1987's Calm Before
the Storm, moved away from Satanic themes in favor of
Tolkien-esque “Sword and Sorcery” material. This was
even less successful than Possessed, and Lant, Clare
and Hickey all left Venom after subsequent touring to
form Lant's eponymous solo band Cronos.
Mike Hickey和Jim Clare兩人加入Venom以取代Dunn結他手
的空缺。1987年發行的第五張專輯”Calm Before the Storm”
中歌曲所探討的內容也由早先的撒旦主義轉變為劍與魔法的世
界，但此專輯仍無法挽回在Possessed所流失的歌迷，反而漸
行漸遠，且Lant、Clare與Hickey三人離開Venom另組了Cronos。
Bray was left as the only group member, but he was able
to convince Music for Nations for a deal to release a
new Venom album on the Under One Flag label, using Deadline
demo tracks which were recorded with previous line-ups but
never released. In 1988, Bray offered a vocals/bass role
to Tony Dolan from Atomkraft. Bray and Dolan wrote new
material prior to Dunn's rejoining the band along with
rhythm guitarist Al Barnes. Together they recorded Prime
Evil (1989), Tear Your Soul Apart (1990) and Temples of
Ice (1991). Barnes then left the band, and Steve White
from Atomkraft was hired as his replacement. They released
The Waste Lands in 1992, also without success. Music for
Nations refused to release any more Venom albums, so Dolan
and Dunn quit, effectively disbanding Venom. Bray continued
to release compilation and live albums up to 1995.
在團員來來去去的結果之下，Venom變成了Bray的一人樂團，Bray
說服唱片公司替Venom發行了一張收錄了早先已錄製完成且未曾正
式發表過的Deadline demo中之歌曲的專輯。1988年，Bray請了來
自Atomkraft的Tony Dolan擔任主唱以及低音結他手的任務，兩人
在Dunn帶著韻律結他手Al Bames重新歸隊前寫了一些新元素的歌曲
，在1989至1991年間完成了Prime Evil、Tear Your Soul Apart與
Temples of Ice三張專輯，之後由同樣來自Atomkraft的Steve
White取代了Barnes離開所空出的位置。不幸的是，於1992年發行的
The Waste Lands與早先發行的唱片皆未成造成大賣，因此唱片公司
拒絕再替Venom發行任何一張新的專輯，而Dolan與Dunn也因此離開
了樂團，Venom自此停擺，不過Bray直到1995年仍一人繼續發形Live
合輯。
Reunion of classic lineup (1995–1999)
經典陣容再現(1995-1999)
In 1995, Lant, Dunn and Bray reunited the "classic"
line-up, beginning by headlining the Waldrock Festival
on 24 June 1995. They recorded and self-released the
Venom '96 EP with four re-recorded and one new song,
resulting in a record deal with the SPV label. An album,
Cast in Stone, was next released in 1997, split between
new material and re-recordings of popular early-'80s songs.
Lant和Dunn、Bray三人於1995年重新合體，並接下了當年Waldrock
音樂祭壓軸的任務。三人共同製作並自行發行了收錄了四首重新錄
製的舊歌以及一手全新歌曲的Venom’96 EP，並在1997年發行包含
了80年代早期的知名勁曲以及一些新元素新歌的Cast in Stone專輯
。
Recent work (1999–present)
Bray left Venom in 1999 and was replaced by Lant's
brother Antony "Antton" Lant. This lineup released
Resurrection in 2000 on SPV. However, in 2002 Dunn
again left the group and was replaced by a returning
Hickey. In late 2005, Venom released a career-spanning
4-disc box set MMV, which includes an exclusive mini-poster
of the band's seven-date tour of Europe with Metallica
and a 60 page picture book, with interviews and pictures.
The set includes all their best-known songs, along with
rarities like live tracks, demos and outtakes. This
lineup of the band released the Metal Black album.
Bray於1999年離開Venom，其位置由Lant的兄弟Antony”Antton”
Lant代替，並以此陣容於2000年發行Resurrection，但在2002年
Dunn又走了，然後Hickey又回來補洞了。Venom在2005年發行了
4CD裝的Venom精選，其中有很多好康。並發行了Metal Black專輯。
Hickey was replaced by guitarist La Rage in 2007. This
lineup released the record Hell the following year.
