Embittered Darkness/Isle De Morts

They don't get much more authentic than this nutter.

How m...

Thrash 'Til Death: Live in Concert

As one of the attendees at the 2005 Minneapolis Mayhem II festival, I can say without equivocation that HIRAX's (who replaced SODOM on the bill) performance was a hell of a lot more exciting and the sound far better than what you will see/hear on "Thrash 'Til Death: Live in Concert". Both sound and...
