In 1995, Lant, Dunn and Bray reunited the “classic” line-up, beginning by headlining the Waldrock Festival on 24 June 1995. They recorded and self-released the Venom ’96 EP with four re-recorded old tracks and one new song, resulting in a record deal with the SPV label. Following this was a live CD/video box set, The Second Coming , composed entirely of songs from their classic era such as “Welcome to Hell”, “Countess Bathory”, “In Nomine Satanas” and “Black Metal”. An album, Cast in Stone , was next released in 1997, split between two discs which was one of all new material and the other with re-recordings of popular early-1980s songs.
