The Wastelands is the eighth studio album by British heavy metal band Venom. It is the last with bassist/singer Tony "Demolition Man" Dolan and also the last before the reunion of the classic Venom line-up from their first four albums Welcome to Hell, Black Metal, At War with Satan and Possessed. Although not a sales success, this album is generally regarded as Venom's most fully realized work. The working title for this album was "Kissing the Beast", but the band changed it when they saw the cover.
