A SAVAGE SET OF BLACK METAL CLASSICS FROM THE NORWEGIAN LEGENDS CAPTURED IN 1998 - PRESENTED ON MID-PRICE CD

Mayhem formed in Oslo, Norway, in 1984 & is infamous as one of the early Scandinavian purveyors of black metal, made even more legendary after the well-documented murder of original Mayhem guitarist Euronymous in 1993. 

This live album was recorded at a performance at the Rainbow Club in Milan, Italy in November 1998. The line- up features the then- returning early Mayhem vocalist Maniac, plus Hellhammer on drums, Necrobutcher on bass & Blasphemer (currently heading his own band, RUiM) on guitar. The show also featured a guest appearance by now-current Mayhem vocalist Attila Csihar on the track 'From The Dark Past'. 

With its well captured sound & the noticeably stunning drum work of Hellhammer, the 
band themselves considered this worthy of being labelled an ofcial release, as 
Mayhem storm through a strong set full of classics from old releases 'Deathcrush' & 
'De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas', to the post-Euronymous compositions as featured on 
'Wolf's Lair Abyss'. Expect nothing but dark & chaotic black metal carnage.
