Until the Light Takes Us Page #2
We called it ''necro-sound,''
you know, ''corpse sound''
because it's supposed to
sound the worst possible.
with a headset as a microphone.
That was the worst
we could find.
And used that as a microphone.
So-- And we used
this tiny Marshall amplifier,
it was this big, because that was
the worst amplifier we could find.
lt was terrible sound, it was--
We had, like, an album cover
with our guitarist,
an eerie shot with corpse-paint on it,
and at that time
basically had painted covers,
you know, ''cover art.''
And people hadn't seen,
like, photos.
Well, the underground knew that Mayhem
used corpse-paint and sh*t,
through the vinyls and CD racks,
they were just like,
''What the hell is this?
A blast from the past?
This is cold!''
The way l perceived Mayhem
was f***ing magic for me.
l'm still listening
to the Deathcrush album.
That's probably
They released Deathcrush
and they just lived
on reputation only in the late '80s.
Mayhem started out
in '84 l guess, around there.
And it was the only Norwegian band,
so it's sort of special for us.
l went to rehearsals and came
like, awestruck back.
They did a show in 1989
which is legendary.
Euronymous invented
the typical Norwegian black metal riff.
lt's sort of derived from Bathory,
but it was a new way of playing a riff
that had really not been done
and not been stylized by anyone before.
That's what Euronymous did.
You have a chord.
You don't play one and one,
you play one and one
up and down
and you have the notes
cling together
so that you have
the f***ing eerie notes
and they all string together
creating this incredible, eerie sound.
lt sends f***ing chills down your spine.
l started in Mayhem in March 1988.
When l first met Euronymous,
l gave him, like,
a demo tape of me playing the drums.
He listened to it maybe five minutes
and he heard it was like double bass
and it was like
''Yeah, okay. You're in the band.''
The next day l actually
moved to their location
which was, like
l met the other guys.
l met Necrobutcher.
And of course, l met Dead
which was a Swedish guy.
l never had the chance
to see Mayhem with Dead,
but Demonaz did so he can
Yeah. l saw Mayhem in Oslo
with Dead.
And he had make-up.
That was the first show
l saw ever with make-up.
And didn't they
carry Dead in in a coffin?
No, they didn't.
They were supposed to do that.
They were supposed to do that, yeah.
So we were really waiting
for that but it didn't happen.
