Another live document from the lords of northern darkness.I just received this today and it's black as the ace of spades!
Anyway,before you start tutting, "Oh not another fucking live MAYHEM series", this one does deserve some closer inspection. In any case, with the sheer amount of live MAYHEM stuff, It's no wonder a lot of them suffer from a shit sound.
So, what we have here is a cd in three parts which are: Eight songs live in Norway in 1990, then some live VENOM and CELTIC FROST covers from 1996, and finally the absolute classic "Pure Fucking Armageddon" demo tagged on the end.Excellent!
Although the sound maybe isn't as good as the "Live In Leipzig" opus which came out a few years back, the "feeling" is there and I have certainly heard a lot worse. One tip I give you is DO NOT buy the Mayhem (unofficial) cd called: "The Great War-Live In Jessheim" as this has the worse sound I've ever heard on a black metal cd yet.
So if you are going to buy a live MAYHEM cd, do the right thing and buy "Mediolanum Capta Est" or the afore mentioned "Live In Leipzig". These will not disappoint.
So "Dawn of The Black Hearts" is aworthy addition to your collection. Only for the real MAYHEM freaks.
Astounding! 8/10!
