"Possessed" is the fourth album by heavy metal band Venom and the last before the departure of guitarist Jeffrey Dunn. At the time of it's release, it did not get very good reviews, not even from the critics who had liked Venom's earlier albums, and it was thought of as being in another league compared to these. This is ironic, since much of the material on "Possessed" was written before the release of At War with Satan. It is the first Venom album recorded outside of Impulse Studios though, which might have changed the sound somewhat.
