The first album by Venom had a warning sticker on it typical of vinyl 
LPs at the time: "Home taping is killing the record industry." Home 
cassette dubbing and tape trading was a huge concern.

Venom's twist was to include the sticker -- "Home taping is killing the 
record industry" -- but the band added "...and so is Venom!"
