Behemoth and Dimmu Borgir’s Shagrath gave their cover of Venom’s “In League With Satan” its live debut on October 9th in Zurich, Switzerland, in tribute to late Venom frontman Cronos.
Behemoth’s recorded version of “In League With Satan” appears on their recent release I, Scvlptor, with Shagrath appearing on the recording. Fan-filmed video shows Behemoth frontman Nergal telling the audience, “We’re going to pay tribute to the godfather of black metal, Cronos from Venom.”
Conrad “Cronos” Lant passed away less than one month ago at just 63 years old. He is widely considered one of the most influential musicians in the world of heavy metal, helping to spur the creation of thrash, black metal, death metal, and more.
