Morbid - Live from the past

Even though the band is long history already, Sweden's MORBID more and more established themselves over the years as a cult act with only one official demo ("December Moon") released back in 1987... Part of the reason most certainly is the fact that their vocalist at the time was no other than Per Yngve Ohlin (better known as "Dead"), who quickly became an icon as a member of Norway's MAYHEM and even more after he committed suicide! What a lot of people seem to forget is that also Lars Goan ("L.G.") Petrov and Ulf "Uffe" Cederlund (nowadays both to be found in ENTOMBED) started their career in this legendary act...

Tracklist:

1. My Dark Subconsious (Demo 1987)
2. Death Execution (Rehersal 1987)
3. Necrodeath (Rehersal 1987)
4. From The Dark (Rehersal 1987)
5. My Dark Subconsious (Live Sept. 1987)
6. Necrodeath (Live Sept. 1987)
7. Disgusting Semla (Live Sept. 1987)
8. From The Dark (Live Sept. 1987)
9. Wings Of Funeral (Demo 1987)

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."
