Mayhem

Mayhem are a Norwegian black metal band formed in 1984 in Oslo long regarded as one of the pioneers of the Norwegian black metal scene. Mayhem's career has been highly controversial, primarily due to their violent stage performances, the 1991 suicide of vocalist Per Yngve Ohlin ("Dead") and 1993 murder of guitarist Øystein Aarseth ("Euronymous") by former member Varg Vikernes ("Count Grishnackh"), also of Burzum. more »

For everything around me which I experience is cold and dead
The blood of others are of a colder substance and taste
Therefore I must spill and serve, The blood that in me runs vibrant
In the frost of the dying minds, Of western society I recreate

It will be the resurrection, Of the brotherhood of holy death
In the year of the holy roman empire, Of night times to come and last
The day of which I shall, Lay my sword upon your throats
Upon the mighty warriors, Of the land of northern regions

Upon the shores of our desolate coast within the waves
I can see the wreckage floating ashore of the dying culture
And so I greet those who still have eyes to observe and see
And who still have courage to break through into the dying light

You have experienced the river of blood
Which here flowed day by day
Against our sworn enemies
I came not to send peace, but a sword

And...have made WAR
