Description
MAYHEM - 'Pure Fucking Armageddon' 6LP+DVD Boxset
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 Øyvind 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.
