The other instruments seem to be solid too, and the drums are well played and well mixed, which makes a change to them being either one or the other, in recent works. This is done quite well too, there's definitely enough restraint not to spoil the other instruments, but the bass is definitely back to where it should be - as a three-piece band, it commands it's due third of the instrumental attention. The bass sound is enormous, and emphasised a little in the mix, with all of the bulldozer crunch that Venom made their own back in the day. The production is much, much more wholesome and enjoyable than that of the two albums Venom released prior to this - and while it's a bit scuffed and unpolished, something which is absolutely essential, it is also pleasingly crisp in it's own way - Everything is mixed and levelled nicely, and there is a strongly organic, earthy feel to the whole album as a consequence. "Fallen Angels" seems to take many of the aspects from the bands more recent works "Metal Black", "Ressurrection" and "Hell", but also have a raucous air which is much more reminiscent of the early albums.
