I LISTENED TO MAYHEM FOR THE FIRST TIME - Black Metal Reaction! 💀🖤

[@harryzimmerman7991]

The drummer here is Jan Axel Bloomberg aka HELLHAMMER, he's on a whole another level of drumming and at age 55, he still plays like this!!

[@robertpetre9378]

When it’s dark and when it’s cold the freezing moon will obsess you - Dead ☠️

[@robertpetre9378]

His vocal kind of reminded me of what it would sound like if Saruman from the Lord of the Rings was singing if he was very very drunk

[@TracyPerren-cn3ol]

It's like a straining bathroom constipation session with a poorly recorded metal soundtrack. Better than most of today's music.

[@Punpas]

Other black metal tracks I would recommend you check them out: 1. Darkthrone - Transilvanian Hunger | A Blaze in the Northern Sky. 2. Satyricon - Mother North. 3. Bathory - A Fine Day to Die | Call from the Grave | The Lake. 4. Gorgoroth - Radix Malorum | Gorgoroth | Profetens Åpenbaring. 5. Emperor - I Am The Black Wizards | Inno A Satana. 6. Dissection - Where Dead Angels Lie | Black Dragon | The Somberlain. 7. Immortal - Tyrants | Return To Cold | All Shall Fall. 8. Marduk - Heart of the Funeral | Wolves. I could keep mentioning tracks of each band, but this would only make the list bigger than it already it.

[@OddTastySausage]

6 is by Dissection, you forgot to mention I'd also change Gorgoroth's Radix Malorum to Prosperity and Beauty and Immortal's Return to cold to At the Heart of Winter But that's just me. A great list there

[@Punpas]

@@OddTastySausage Yeah you are right, it was 3 AM already so I was kind of groggy, imma edit it right now. Also great songs you mentioned there. Thanks!

[@pickamaterina1313]

Is bathory considered as black metal? too me is sounds more like viking death metal

[@Punpas]

@@pickamaterina1313 Well, Bathory changed their style in the early '90s to something often called Viking Metal, so you are not wrong. But they are both black metal pioneers and viking metal legends

[@wolverine669]

Should listen some of their newer/new material also. Saw them live last summer and they were EPIC

[@cherryxfalls]

This is the one I’ve been waiting for!

[@metalcoffie]

Groovy, keep on doing what cha do, yo!

[@pickamaterina1313]

The birth of Norwegian Black Metal that is own genre today Great doc about Norwegian Black Metal, new interviews with members of Mayhem and alot more (dont forget put on captions) kzbin.info/www/bejne/bGWXl3ytbb15mc0

[@vidarsmestad9143]

This is pretty much the only documentary you need regarding Mayhem and the 90s scene. Well, "Det Svarte Alvor" is also highly recommended for maximum cheesiness. And awesomeness.

[@David-fg6sm]

other great black metal tracks you can listen to : Darkthrone "Transilvanian hunger", Emperor "Inno a satana", Immortal "Solarfall", Satyricon "Mother North" ...

[@markus6167]

Only the 1st

[@nupraptorthementalist3306]

He wasn't supposed to be the vocalist as I'm sure people explained in comments already. The original died by his own hand a few years before. There's a famous piece of trivia about this record being the only one where a murderer (Varg of Burzum) plays with his victim (Euronymous).

[@nupraptorthementalist3306]

The parts where he sings Latin here is good though.

[@pvilches06]

Great reaction Moosh!!! One of the legends of Second Wave of Black Metal!! Attila's vicals are definitely unique and can bit or miss with listeners. I would also recommend Dimmu Borgir "Spellbound by the Devil", Satyricon "Dark Mediegal Times" and Emperor "Alsvartr / Ye Entrancemperium" for your next reactions. Happy New Year!!! 😉🤘🤘🖤🖤🔥🔥🔥

[@markus6167]

Ew, Dimmu, Emperor & Satyricon... Although Satyricon does have some decent tunes & excellent Turbonegro cover but these the most mainstream out of 'em all, how's about Burzum, Darkthrone, Taake, Tsjuder, Carpathian Forest & Ulver. Then on 2 the Swedish & especially Finnish scene

[@Felipearandab]

Great reaction, personally I don't listen a lot black metal but I feel is a little romantic music. Sigue haciendo reacciones geniales, saludos desde 🇨🇴

[@davidellis5141]

Moosh no longer reacts to the reactors to her reactions. I can dig that & You should to. Mayhem are fairly intense. Organized chaos.

[@mmoooosh]

@@davidellis5141 my reaction to this is …where r the emojis!?🤌🏼 thanks for watching🖤

[@David-fg6sm]

ordo ad chaos

[@ofoten7054]

@@mmoooosh Hey moosh,🖤 a Swedish band that would have been fun to see you react (Ghost B.C - Year zero)

[@BalobianDesigns]

'De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas', what a track. Notorious record, too. A lot of the lyrics being written by the former front man, Dead and incredible lyrics they still are. Fantastic reaction. Keep on going.

[@philfoe551]

Love the reaction. On one hand, it’s not for me, but I appreciate what these dudes were doing DIY and raw….Has that quality like the OG brutal death metal stuff

[@Dani-X01]

One of the early members and founder of mayhem Euronymous did had a little "feud" with varg vikernes of burzum, it was nothing big deal. Moosh please react to gojira "the art of dying" next.

[@alexpoetov3213]

The song called Mysteries of Lord Satan should sound this way ...

[@Kathabasis]

Mayhem is and not was a norwegian Black metal band. They are still active.

[@DuckDodger1993]

The Spirit Possession thumbnail ?. A fan ?

[@shenomiya6194]

The first time I heard Mayhem I was scared hahaha Then I liked them

[@LeperMessiah2]

Check out Darkthrone instead. They are much better without all the drama. Euronymous was a psychotic narcissist and ended like all of us in the Norwegian bm scene thought back then

[@vidarsmestad9143]

Black metal is pretty much opposite to genres like death or thrash, where its more or less "mandatory" to start with what's considered to be the classics. Don't listen to people telling you to start with Darkthrone, Burzum, Mayhem, Beherit etc. Or Celtic Frost, Bathory or any of the other OGs, cuz that will probably scare you away (well, you listened to both Mayhem AND Burzum, so maybe you're built different, I dunno lol). You'll need something more accessible, and in that regard I'd recommend bands/tracks such as The Kovenant - Sulphur Feast, Dimmu Borgir - Blessings Upon the Throne of Tyranny, Keep of Kalessin - Crown of the Kings, Immortal - One By one, Dissection - Where Dead Angels Lie. THEN you can begin to delve deeper into whats arguably (at least in my opinion) the most interesting metal genre in the world, with bands/tracks such as Emperor - Into the Infinity of Thoughts/I Am the Black Wizards, Satyricon - The Dawn of a New Age/Mother North, Darkthrone - In the Shadow of the Horns/To Walk the Infernal Fields, Mayhem - Freezing Moon/Cursed In Eternity, Burzum - Det Som En Gang Var, Immortal - Unsilent Storms in the North Abyss/Grim And Frostbitten Kingdoms and TONS of others. The genre is ever-expanding, and while all the CLASSICS(!) are from the early to mid 90s, there have been some truly stellar releases all throughout the 2000s, even from Murica.

[@Shiva-_-]

Plz react to SIRENIA - MERIDIAN! First song of the best Symphonic Gothic metal album ever! It mixes everything strong dark music, gutturals, female vocals and choirs, melody and heavyness. I think you will like it.

[@sveinunglidsheim5828]

The album got a nice drum and guitar sound, but i honestly really don't understand why people think the vocals sound good. Vargs voice in Burzum is so much better.

[@satanic_victory]

You should react to Arch Enemy, they are a great band too, it's Melodic Death Metal

[@T.Mothibi]

It's Latin

[@nicolariva4982]

Sow them 2 time, the last one just a couple of weeks ago

[@Darkatan1]

Listen to Mgla !

[@adammckinney792]

Check out suffocation obituary and and napalm death

[@lug23]

Mayhem history >>>>> Mayhem's music 🤣🤣🤣

[@markus6167]

2 those standing on the outside, sure

[@ZtormOfTheRider]

De mysteriis dom sathanas is a fckig classic , deathcrush too, stfu

[@bustercherry8734]

lol what's with the dumb clean "singing" @ 2:00? Sounds tardedly funny.

[@ZtormOfTheRider]

wtf is this, and i'm no talking about the song

[@CarlStefan]

Now that you have reacted to both Burzum and Mayhem, you should watch the movie "Lords of Chaos". It is a fictional movie based on the actual story of the Norwegian Black Metal scene in the early 90s. Mayhem and Burzum are the most important factors. Other than that they added a girl that never existed the rest of the story is not as far from reality as we would have preferred it to be..

[@Punpas]

The movie has some mistakes, but It's a good movie to get into what happened in the black metal scene nonetheless.
