Please I am searching for old metal albums with a goat on cover... Welcome to hell from Venom it seems to be the oldest one... or am I wrong???

LOL I thought Goat was on an album cover going by the thread title :lol:

I've appeared on a few album covers actually, surprised you don't know, I mention it all the time.

I reckon so, Loki, anything older and you'd be hard-pressed to call it metal, no?

That might be the deciding factor. Like serious what other metal bands are there prior to 1980? The obvious ones and none of them rocked a goat. I'd be curious as to where Venom got it from.

Icecross

May not be a Goat exactly, but it looks like one and its fucked up. Pretty "evil" album cover from 1973.

I'm sure I can find more.

Try Pentagram.

EDIT: never mind, Icecross is just skulls and a cross.

I don't know exactly if Icecroos is hard rock or heavy metal but is the best answer by now

Hard rock/70s metal.

Good stuff.

Other one is Angel Witch single from 1980 but I think there could be a Goat from the 70's

1975.

That's a new stitched velvet cover for the reissued vinyl, but it's exactly like the original cover.

Goats and pentagrams go back a lot farther than metal.
