Dissection - Unhallowed (Wacken 1997)

We filmed about 20 min. (3 1/2 songs) of Dissection's show in Wacken 1997. While I could present "Frozen" and "Where Dead Angels Lie" as a two camera edit, only one camera's footage survived from "Unhallowed" which you see here for the first time. That's all there's going to be, thanks for the interest and audience requests. The intro fire effect is stock-footage courtesy of www.videezy.com

Jon was a true artist, his music is authentic and from the heart

[@holgerhahn8615]

First of all he was a moron!

[@mikem9958]

One thing about Jon Nödveidt that I feel is never highlighted enough, is how genuine he is. What exactly do I mean? - I mean, he never behaved in a manner for the intention of shocking or for theatrics. In fact, many photos you see of him when he was released from prison are of him smiling and looking happy. He didn't put on this "brooding" theatrical bullshit...and yet, he's the one of the few who put more action behind his words than most. It wasn't just all talk filled with empty words. He was genuine. No gimmicks, no attempts to impress or "shock" anyone. He let actions (including his music) speak for him. No tough guy talk necessary.

[@christopherrobin361]

Agreed. I have nothing against theater and symbolism, but Jon was an incredible musician and vocalist. He didn't need to showboat or boast. And the demos, Storm of the Light's Band, and The Somberlain are most of my favorite albums to come out of the 90s.

[@mikem9958]

@@christopherrobin361 Exactly. I've always said if someone has to excessively bark, it's because they're praying they don't have to bite. Jon is the perfect example of the opposite of this. No talk, just action. Everyone said the same thing when his death came, "I don't get it, he was so positive and happy" - yeah, that didn't change a damn thing about how strongly he felt about his beliefs and his destiny. It was only confusing because he wasn't being a drama-queen about it and getting a build-up going. He quietly did what he felt was meant to be. Jon is arguably the truest and most genuine Satanist to have ever been in the black metal scene.

[@Thrasher_Abbatoir]

Pure epicness. I wish there are more band like this. Dissection one and only

[@DarksaberForce]

There's one called Thulcandra.

Check out Sinira if you haven't already

[@kensloth]

Eerie to think that this was just weeks after the murder but before he was caught. Great guitarist and songwriter, bad bad life choices.

[@TiwazPagan-if3og]

Can you elaborate as to what you're talking about? Only thing I read was that Jon committed suicide in 2006.

[@kensloth]

@@TiwazPagan-if3og Sacrificing animals/cats and murder were a couple that come to mind. Hell of a songwriter and guitarist though. Just seems like he lost his marbles a bit. Swedes seem to like to take things to the limit, then beyond, sometimes with fatal results.

[@AS-Stardust]

@@TiwazPagan-if3og Jon and a friend of his murdered a guy which why Jon went to jail for like 7 years, then recorded the last Dissection album and did a tour before commiting suicide.

[@joshpress9798]

Dude is a Fucking legend. I don't know about him killing animals. Can't believe everything you read.

[@Dedaloblackmetal]

The drummer is a Monster

[@benjaminkip9143]

His name is Tobias Kjellgren. He played in Decameron (I have their record "My Shadow" on cd). The 2nd guitar player Johan Norman also played in Decameron but is not on that record. Johan is a Dissection member on Storm of the Lights Bane. Tobbe was in Dissection after drummer Ole Öhman joined Deathstars together with Jon's brother Emil. Emil was in a band called Swordmaster. The drums on the 1st Swordmaster record were done by Tobbe Kjellgren. The singer of Swordmaster joined Emil and Ole in Deathstars. But before that, Dissections bassist Peter Palmdahl left the band, Emil Nödtveidt hooked up to do bass duties live. When Dissection was done due to Jon's murder, Tobbe and Johan formed a band called Soulreaper and recorded a record. Jon, Johan and Tobbe/Tobias had a side project in the early 1990s called Satanized, before Tobbe and Johan were in Dissection. They recorded 2 rehearsal tape songs called "Satanized" (Which is also on the Decameron record) and "Born in fire" and these recordings are on Dissection's The Past Is Alive compilation

[@donutsacrifice2588]

Is it just me or did the audio quality for this video and of Where Dead Angels Lie decrease in quality? I feel like there should be a whole mother video of the latter but it got removed or something. Is that just me?

[@LordDathka]

I think it got removed due to the fact he murdered someone 2 weeks before this show aired. Just my thought...

[@crimsondeath7468]

Why have they put an effect on Jons vocals?

[@liamarjoonsingh6256]

i think they only put echo cuz it sounds almost identical to the Frozen in Wacken version. So either it is echo or because of the quality of the camera they used it sounds different.

[@BlackHermit]

When and where did Jon say that quote at the beginning of this video?

[@medd1990]

It's in the booklet of the cd "Live Legacy".

Yup, Jon's brother played bass for this show.

[@AstronomyDomine]

@@SireOblivion did peter leave or something?

[@SireOblivion]

@@AstronomyDomine I'm not sure exactly why he wasn't in this show. This was just after the murder and before Jon's arrest so with the band breaking up around that time there's nothing I've found about why Peter wasn't here. If was just sitting this one out or quit the band officially like Ole did right after recording Storm of the Light's Bane, who knows. Peter's on Facebook I believe, maybe you could ask him.
