Celtic Frost
These are two of the earliest photos of the newly formed Celtic Frost, taken in June of 1984 at the former Hellhammer rehearsal space, the Grave Hill Bunker, in Birchwil, Switzerland. They depict Celtic Frost's first line-up, with drummer and close friend Isaac Darso.
This incarnation of the band only lasted for one rehearsal, during which we wrote a first song for what would become the "Morbid Tales" album some four months later. Unfortunately, the cassette with that song (and thus the song itself) vanished shortly after.
Around 20 of these early photos survive, half of them shot at the rehearsal space, the other half using Birchwil's old mill at the edge of the woods as a backdrop. They were taken by erstwhile Hellhammer photographer martin Kyburz.

208. To Mega Therion - Celtic Frost (Thrash/Death/Black Metal, 1985)
Art by Hans Rudolf Giger (1940-2014) : "Satan I"
For his participation in the movie "Alien" he won an Oscar for best visual effects in 1980.
Giger suffered from night terrors and his paintings are all, to some extent, inspired by his experiences with that particular sleep disorder. - he also claims to be only working at night.
#without a doubt one of the most famous cover artworks there are in metal history#metal#death metal#black metal#thrash metal#art#artwork#music#painting#heavy music#artist#cover art#heavy#hr giger#celtic frost#switzerland
