Honestly I don't think I have that cd... I do know that story however it has been a long time since I though of it.. beside me finding the lords of chaos book...
Didn't  Euronymous take pictures of dead's body or something odd like that...

I will have to take a picture of the crazy old tshirt we have from mayhem and venom..originals... 

I have to say.. The scariest musican i have ever meet is Hellhammer... he is seriously fuckin odd...

just words cant decribe.. I also think that Varg is out of prision isn't he? Last I heard it was soon?.....

		Oystein Aarseth  aka  "Euronymous"                    "De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas"   1993 Hey Sinner Rider......Mayhem was created by Oystein Aarseth in 1986 with Mayhem's demo "Pure Fucking Armageddon"....then thier debut LP 1987 "Death Crush".... But they played a black/death/thrash metal kinda style....but when vocalist "Dead" joined the band in 1988....they moved into the realm of "black metal".................... And around 1989...they had written almost all of the songs that would be later found on the "De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas" album released in 1994............... In 1991 vocalist "Dead" shot and killed himself....and never got to record his vocals for the album...."Attila" from Hungary band "Tormentor" did the vocals and in 93' Aarseth was murdered by Varg Vikerness of Burzum.   So any Mayhem albums after De Mysteriis is not "real" Mayhem in my opinion. But this album even though it was not released to the public yet...had a HUGE influence on the other black metal bands in the scene because all of  those bands got to listen to those tracks while they were being recorded and Mayhem had demo tapes with other raw versions of it.......... Aarseth was very slow at recording material and its a shame that he is dead...He is the Godfather of modern day black metal......... Venom is the Godfather of ALL black metal.....bands of the 1980's like Venom,Bathory,Hellhamer,Mercyful Fate....were the black metal veterans....but Mayhem took the torch and continued black metal but with thier own stamp on it..."Norwegian" black metal...... De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas is the BEST black metal album of all time (in the realm of the second wave of black metal) I wouldn't recomend listening to any Mayhem albums except this one......this album is a must have situation for all black metal fans!!   (Quoting Message by Sinner Rider from Wednesday, July 22, 2009 8:56:28 AM)   Sinner Rider wrote:   Holy shit.. okay here are the bands I can think of off the top of my head..

Acheron Arcturus Bathory Behemoth Black Funeral Borknagar Celtic Frost cradle of Filth  Dark Funeral Darkthrone  Dimmu Einherjer Enslved Emperor Finntroll (?)....not really but dammit I love this band Goat Whore God Dethroned Gorgoth hate Eternal Horna Immortal Kovenant Lord Belial Marduk mayhem Moonsorrow Moonspell Old Mans child Opera IX Samael Satriycon Seibenburgen Thyrfing (newer is more heavier) Venom Vintersorg  Windir Zyklon  Many are questionable... but that is me draggin my brain through my cd collection 30 miles away.. I'm sure that I have also mis-spelled many.. I hate Varg.. Burzum sucks. I actually bough two a long time ago. Mayhem is terrible too.. but they deserve respect.
