MayheM / MorbiD - Tribute to Black Emperors

Another split bootleg release from 2 major acts of the extreme underground metal:

Morbid is standard death metal played like slow and ear-friendly speed metal with necrotic vocals lunging over rock n roll style riffs; it is in the Swedish style of the death metal explosion before the development of that scene initially past its rock origins and mixes darkly convergent melodies with chromatic and pentatonic speed riffing.

Mayhem has four of their classics represented on this CD with the savage vocals of Dead and the bizarre and random guitar meanderings of Euronymous illuminating the focused, most effective lineup for this band yet. Similar to performances on other recordings of this era, these songs are slightly faster and in the process of rearrangement and refinement to become the whirling speed inferno that was "De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas."
