Mantas was the isthmus formed by quondam Venom guitarist Jeff Dunn (aka Mantas, naturally) following his acrimonious release from the group, and their showy, synthesizer-driven surd rock and roll level-headed was indeed a far cry from the legendarily raw black alloy pioneers. Not that the latter in any agency translated into increased record gross sales, since the group's 1988 debut album -- competently named Winds of Change, and in reality recorded four-spot years sooner -- was released by the promotionally challenged Neat Records. Rather, both the album and 1989's more or less more aggressive Beguiler EP were total busts with one-time fans and prospective new ones alike, proving that you Mantas the band (which, by the way, was rounded out by Pete Harrison, second guitarist Al Barnes, keyboardist Keith Nichol, and a membranophone machine!!!) disintegrated ahead visual perception the nineties, just a modern batting order featuring sometime Atomkraft and Venom bassist/vocalist Tony Dolan was briefly convened to record 2004's Zero Tolerance LP.
