Catching up with the Demolition Man
Our editor Lucifer caught up with Tony after he returned from an exciting band related trip to the United States.
1 - Hi Tony, you just returned from the US. Can you tell us, the Venom Inc fans, what you did over there?
A: Good morning! Yes, ah well, myself and Mr Jackson went to Akron, Ohio where Mr Murphy lives and has his studio/rehearsal/amp repair and guitar building workshop (Custom Audio Mutation)
We have been recording and mixing the new upcoming Live release and a new mini album/single.
2 - How was it to work together in one room, as it had been a while since you’ve done that?
A: About 30 years or more yes lol. Amazing, 2 years in and so many live shows have shown WE are a real band live. So we wanted to take thát into a studio together and so we did. It was pure magic! An ‘actual’ band, actually playing together while recording. Old-school? Perhaps. Real? Definitely! And the results are more than I imagined.
3 - What is the latest on new Venom Inc releases?
A: The KISS/FM LIVE studio session Sao Paulo are about to be mastered now, then set for release.
- The mini album will have final mixes, the mastering and release date are set.
- Live album being compiled, then mastered.
- New full album will be recorded this Summer.

4 - Last one for this part; we celebrate 11 years of Venom Inc this month, what was your absolute favorite moment of these 11 years and if you want to share, the lowest point?
A: Lowest point? 8 years without Jackson & Curran!
Highest point for VENOM INC; Bloodstock Winter Gathering 2025, playing AVE, the first album, in full for the very first time.
