Mayhem Pure Fucking Armageddon LP Vinyl

After honouring the Dead era with Peaceville's 'Cursed in Eternity' boxset, plus the band's own look back at the iconic 'De Mysteriis Dom. Satanas' album, it was time to return to the very beginning of The True Mayhem. In order to do so, Necrobutcher opened his vault of personal & never-released tape recordings & with the help of long-time Mayhem friend Finn H?kon R°dland, constructed a special picture disc box set with the very first recordings of 'The True Mayhem', essential for any die-hard fan of the Norwegian legends. The 'Pure Fucking Armageddon' boxset contains 6 LPs, including the cult 1986 'Pure Fucking Armageddon' demo itself, plus also the final complete 'Pure Fucking Armageddon' rehearsal, spanning 90 minutes & featured here across 2 LP's (including talking between songs & multiple takes of tracks - nothing has been cut). In addition to these essential pieces of metal history, Mayhem's classic April 1985 gig 'Live in Ski' is also included (LP & DVD - NTSC 0), where they performed a selection of cover tracks. The very first official Mayhem interview was recorded onto tape by ?yvind Ihlen for the Panic fanzine & also features in this set (in Norwegian language, with translation in the book). This was also partly inspired by a similar interview-disc release from Venom many years ago. And last, but not least, is Checker Patrol. This was the obscure metal project that Euronymous & Necrobutcher had with Metalion & their German friends during interrail trips of '86 & '87. This is the first presentation of the full collection of tracks, with songs from 1987 previously never heard. The boxset concludes with an 80-page book with Necrobutcher's recollections and unique pictures from the very first Mayhem photo sessions, along with interviews, and other rarities from the mid-80s. The set also contains a classic early era band poster. Limited edition.
