Is that half-brain fuck, going by the name of Venien, called some Joe and randomly insulted poor fuckhead, treating it as a prank? Man... Just... Man...

No. That's actually some prank call that's been floating around the internet for a while. For whatever reason, someone in Von re-uploaded it to their Youtube channel.

Actually, the idea of Von stealing an old prank call and calling it their own says a lot about them anyway.

That prank call has been floating around the internet for at least 5 years now. Quite retarded of Von, really, to put this up and take credit for it when everyone that ever would have heard it has already heard it.

This is off of Mushroomheads album "M3"

Oh, that's where that's from. I thought it was just some youtube skit done ages ago.

This much older than 5 years. It's closer to like 9 or so at least. I remember hearing it first in my first or second year of college.

It has already been confirmed on this very forum (as well as elsewhere) that Von Venien is a troll and using online antics to generate some buzz for his crummy music and get a few sales from the morbidly curious. Bathym followed the exact same playbook as you may recall.

QFT. I honestly don't know what this fellow is up to anymore, nor do I want to...

"Mothafuckin devil coming down on ya neck" Dat's evil, Joe! I'm an evil muthafucka!!"

Ha ha, that was pretty funny, back in the day. Don't know what this has to do with that Von guy though, is he claiming he made that up now?

Didn't Venien 'return' to Von just to ripoff their 'legacy'? That guy is probably the most laughable personality on the 'true' black metal scene.

That said, I've only listened to the song "Watain" from the 2012 release and I do like it more than the demo era version. More bass heavy, and kinda like Watain's own cover.

The "Satanic Blood Angel" album certainly offers a more streamlined version of VON's sound, but its superficiality, the reliance on standard production values (read: highly compressed sound) and an overall flashiness, is nauseating.

Man, that was low.... Reeel fucking low... I thought there's no chance to screw such minimalistic and primitive track as "Satanic BLood", yet Venien and his merry bunch surprise me again...

Jesus fuck, THREE guitars on stage to play that shit?

Literally the last band that needs 2 guitars let alone 3

Venien strikes again:

Nathan T. Birk:
To that, what are your thoughts on Von Goat?
VENIEN!!!:
My thoughts surround the facts, which include my intentions to always finish what I started so long ago, but also to do it without the bullshit and hype. This is VON in its raw state and its truest form that it can possibly be! So I could care less what Shawn does with his life, his music, or whatever band he wants to portray or pose as, its all-just hype and those that stroke that boy, are fools. Last time I spoke to him was immediately after the London show and he called to basically quit VON like he did in the early 90s and told me to cancel all shows including Hole In the Sky, which I personally booked to play next. He had his farewell speech and laid it down that he was doing Von Goat business now and good luck with VON and Von Records…it was all bullshit! and it makes me sick I even considered recording the album(s) with him…next question

Nothing but facepalm...

This guy is trying SO hard to portay himself and his 'band' as a deep dark and illuminated entity... I feel nothing but disgust for his delusional personality, especially being a guy on his 40's.

I just don't get why this guy has such the ego of a rock star or whatever when he did nothing. The only worth a shit Von recording is "Satanic Blood" and he's not there. But now he's trying to make money playing those old songs that aren't that special anyway. I wish someone wakes this guy up one day. This drama around Von in recent years has been beyond stupid.

"You don't know who I am?? My last album sold over 500 copies!"

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!!! What a bunch of dicks...

There were only two reasons people liked Von, one is because they were the most simplistic black metal could ever be and it was really catchy, the second and main reason was because of their obscurity and cult status (which they completely destroyed by trying to sell out but with no-one buying and becoming huge Dark Funeral/Watain generic norsecore for 13 year olds wannabes). Most metal bands from the late 80's early 90's are in their 40's now and are probably going through midlife crisis' lol and along with the internet becoming hugely popular this has lead to a lot of awesome bands regrouping such as Convulse, Morbid Saint and Winter for example, this has also lead to long active bands to change their styles for example Darkthrone are playing really good 70's/80's influenced metal and Cryptopsy worried about themselves not being cool anymore and decided to get down with the kids and go all deathcore, having "trendy" haircuts and ear hoops and sounding like Korn. I would say that the same thing happened to Von, the problem with this however is that these guys going round saying they're "Von®" don't look like they're in their 40's at all, they look fucking 17.

Von Goat released some decent stuff though.
