Additional Information
Venom are big business in Canada and America in late 1984, early 1985. Before the band heading overseas for a tour they release a Mini-LP, Canadian Assault through Banzai Records (a Canadian label, specialized in licencing releases from USA and Europe for the Canadian market). The album has three tracks from their singles and on the flipside is three livetracks from the Hammersmith Odeon concert the year before. The album soon turns platinum (100,000 copies sold) in Canada and quickly rises high in the charts for Imports album in Europe
