Anthony Michael Dolan (born 1964), also known by his nickname Demolition Man, is an English musician. He was the bassist and vocalist of heavy metal band Venom in the late 1980s and early 1990s. He currently plays in Atomkraft and Venom Inc., the latter of which he formed with fellow former Venom member Mantas.
Dolan and Paul Spillett formed Atomkraft in Newcastle upon Tyne in 1979. Dolan was a vocalist from 1979 to 1986, and played guitars from 1979 to 1981 and on to 1988, just before they broke up. From 1981 to 1987, he played bass guitar. When Atomkraft was reformed in 2004, Dolan took up the duty of vocalist and bassist again. In 1988, he was offered a role of bassist and vocalist for the prominent heavy metal band Venom. He recorded four albums with Venom before leaving the band in 1993. Dolan also participated in other acts, including Mantas (solo band by former Venom guitarist Jeffrey "Mantas" Dunn), Dogmatix and Raubtier. In 2010, with Jeffrey Dunn and Anthony Lant, he started playing bass guitar and singing in Mpire of Evil.
Dolan has also had acting roles and played in films like Master and Commander and Dirty War.
