mortiis in pic 4 & 5 (better quality at the bottom of post)
the second picture is the original 1992 wrath of the tyrant demo cassette insert. back when samoth was samot and ihsahn was ygg.
samot: drums of war
ygg: black hellharp & moonbarking
mortiis: witching bass
intro/outro by samot
music by samot and ygg. all lyrics by mortiis
From an interview with Mortiis about the demo:
Our music is still, of course, blacker than bottomless lakes, and even more eerie, depressive. and deep! The lyrics for the demo was about vampirism, witchism, black magic etc.
Bonus pics from the 1994 Wild Rags re-release of Wrath of the Tyrant. Tchort on the front cover.
