"Mayhem was formed in 1984, it all started when the rehearsal demo "Pure Fucking Armageddon" was recorded (only 100 copies) and the first and only show was played. This was long before I joined the group. I was a terrible and disgusting child then.

Before I joined Mayhem, I was in a band in Sweden: Morbid. We recorded the "December Moon" demo in December 1987. There were questions about how my voice sounded like, and those who heard this demo know. Okay, the demo didn't sell particularly well, but some people got it. In Mayhem, my voice is not the same as Maniac's on "Deathcrush" and I'm not trying to copy him." - Pelle, in Stregoica zine 1988, part 1

On March 5, 1978, Eddie Van Halen and David Lee Roth stopped by a McDonald's in Crestwood, St. Louis, Missouri during their early tour, just as Van Halen was starting to gain recognition. After a KSHE-FM radio interview, they took a quick food break. Since they didn't have much money yet, they had recently picked up matching Army-surplus, fur-lined jackets, which they're seen wearing here.

Young photographer Richard Upper captured this playful moment under the old single McDonald's arch, a spontaneous snapshot that would become one of the most iconic early images of Van Halen. Photo by 📷 Richard Upper

Why do you think Dead is so weird? (His childhood, Quorthon (Bathory) or is he simply possessed?)

- "Weird is not the right word, I honestly think Dead is mentally insane (he knows I am writing this!) Which other way can you describe a guy who does not eat in order to get starving wounds? Or have a T-shirt with funeral announcements on it? I've always wanted to have a guy like that in the band!" - Øystein in Morbid mag no3, 1988 🦇
