It's a long time ago and a bit hard to see details, but I believe that the headbanger in the middle is me. I have on my white Tankard sweater and the guy to my right with Sepultura t-shirt is my friend Jon Martin.
The opening guy: "It's about to get dark, alright. We're gonna meet some guys from... Where are you from exactly? Anyway, they're called Darkthrone and they play death metal"
@@ansari8225 really? :) Strange how little people know about the bands they listen to. You obviously never heard 'Soulside Journey,' their first album released after this concert. And yes, it was death metal. Not to mention that all you had to do was actually listen to the music in video above before commenting on it ;-)
i wonder if people (metal heads that is) know how extraordinary this tape is. Obviously many do, but..... I am speechless. This is fucking outstanding. The exceptional thing about this tape apart that these are 17-19 years old boys writing and performing this music, is that my dearest Gylve is playing live, but also Ivar Enger aka Zephyrous, who people havent seen, more or less, for over 20 years. I am an 48 year old woman who has been into this stuff for a looooong time so I should know what Iam saying. There is no denying that Gylve Fenriz is a genius, and thats the reason why he is my alltime favorite with Pelle Ohlin as well (R.I.P). I am a black metal person but this is just sooo good. I actually get stomach pain when i see Gylve there.
@@worldinpains2.035 typical fanboy who won't allow an opinion. I personally thing they were better in their death metal era than the black metal lazy ass musicianship.
@@khalez1471 they knew they had a greater purpose with their music, and they needed to change to escape the death metal box and accomplish greater heights. considering how black metal is older, it's crazy how much quicker death metal hit the ceiling with ideas and evolution, whereas bm continued to evolve until they hit the ceiling with burzum's filosofem in '96
@@blunderless black metal ain't older, they came out nearly in the same time. If you are referring to venom being black metal, it's pure ignorance. Venom was just motorhead on steroids, you can even say that they were new wave of british heavy metal. I love some black metal when the musicianship is good.
@@Blakullawitch Yes, but they changed the name. And they ditched the whole album. But you can find the rehearsal recording on Goatlord (with later added vocals by Fenriz) and Frostland Tapes (pure, instrumental), and it's not called Possessed there.
@@Blakullawitch I think it's kinda fun, but would've been interesting to hear it produced and with Nocturno vocals. Kind of have to listen to Goatlord as "what it might have been", but fucking hell those riffs and songs (and drumming) is amazing. Perfect transition between the Soulside and Blaze styles.
It's so awesome getting to see how incredible of a drummer fenris is live. While I think he get's his fair share as a spokesperson, personality, and even as a bandleader, I think he really is underrated and underestimated purely as a drummer in his own right.
I think we all know he can be great when he wants to. It's just that through the entire late 90s and most of the 00s, he sounded like he didn't want to play drums at all. Picked up a bit on the last two records though!
All these replies are retarded, just because someone doesn't play extremely complex death metal drumming doesn't mean they suck, that's the whole point of Darkthrone, but anyway.
I discovered Darktrone through hammy when I was about 12/13 as my dad was on his record label, absolutely loved them and wouldn’t share them with any of my friends haha they were all mine great to learn later how monumental they were 🙌🙌
I was a 14 year old little shit when I bought soulside journey in 1991 and it has been one of my favorite metal albums since. Fenriz was like the Neil Peart of death metal drumming during this period. Very creative beats and the riffs were so dark and haunting. Soulside is still my favorite darkthrone album. I only wish the goatlord material had a proper studio recording, but they were already heading in a more primitive direction later in 1991...
I got into DT at around 15 years of age, which I think it was the age to get into deeper underground metal. I heard Fenriz stating Neal Pearl influence (On the second disc commentary of Soulside Journey I think), so You got really spot on on that.
youtube is the greatest invention of all time. Wanna watch an ancient Melvins VHS rip next? how about a 90s Converge VHS? go for it! Thanks so much for this upload
@@drageben145 Yeah I've gotten this huge crush on him for like 3 years but I'm not a crazy groupie. I'm happy for him and his wife besides not even in my wildest dreams I'd ever even meet him lol
@@dolphin.starbeam He has been in the band since the beginning, the spoken voice sounds like his, the tattoo on the right arm looks a bit different but he was also thinner. Maybe he meant they never played live since they turned to black metal. Even Burzum never playd live but there's a photo of him with the later stolen Westone Pantera and even a potato quality live video of him with Old Funeral. Everybody has a past and likes to brag about doing things first and before it was cool...
I am far from a metal head or a death metal head. But i'm totally blown away by how amazing this is. Also how normal and quiet they look when they come out and then they play and sing like that. Wow!
Very talented, I really enjoy their early death metal sound, it must be disheartening sometimes for the "new old school death metal" bands that are popular at the moment, to know deep down it was mastered back in 1990.
WTF. Here in the US we could only spin the CD and dream about shows like this. Darkthrone's glorious Death Metal Days! This was one of the most inspiring moments of music, ever.
Death and speed and thrash metal shows had already been going on for 5-10 years by this point and USBM had already emerged. Where do you think the Norwegians had gotten their ideas and inspiration if not from USA, South America, Sweden, Greece, Germany, etc bands who were already several years into it?
all credits goes to the guy who filmed this and the guy who uploaded this. it's rare to see a vid from 1990 with this quality :) epic.. anyone who knows if there is a video of darkthone in 1993 - 1994 when they started played black metal?
I'm assuming that is Dag Nelson on bass as well, I was pretty impressed with his playing as well. Bass playing really had a lot of character throughout the entire set.
Thank you for this video with a so good sound quality!!!Listen to Soulside journey is already so fabulous but there looking at them play these perfect riffs and seeing Fenriz behind his drums : fucking great!!!!!!!
It's cool to see the Goatlord stuff played. And I usually listen to the instrumental version. So cool to hear some lyrics, and with Nocturno instead of Fenriz.
@@atavism-dream You're right....I renamed Nargaroth's best-known song "BM ist Krieg" as "Black Metal ist Kriek" ('Kriek' is a Belgian beer brewed with cherries cultivated in Schaarbeek near Brussels).
I wish they would have continued this setup as well as what DarkThrone became, as a Death Metal side project. I remember I learned all their songs on guitar one summer, my band used to play some of their songs as warmup before practice ;) One odd thing: my tape has a better picture quality, but the sound here is better? But I don't have that hiss on my tape, which is strange. I can't remember if this was broadcast locally and I taped it off that broadcast? It was 26 years ago....I still have all Bootleg concerts that were taped back in those days. Come to think of it, I have many on DAT as well. Dunno why these haven't slightly tweaked/remastered and released yet?
Love there Death Metal Style too. I was always and forever into Death / Black Metal until my last Breath. Darkthrone kicks ass! "1990 to "1997" to me is true Darkthrone.
Shit didn't even notice you posted this on my birthday six years ago until watching it again this morning. Funny since my original intention was to listen to a lot of their discography today, even made a playlist last night and everything. Cheers for sharing this footage by the way 👍
Años de batallas oscuras frías siempre prevalecerá el gran viejo Darkthrone nocturno culto y el viejo fenriz un gran legado blasfemo hasta el día de hoy
I wish Darkthrone had kept this style. I remember when I got Blaze in the Northern Sky; I didn't even think it was the same band. I mean that album OK, but Soulside Journey had a great early death metal feel.
@@dinkins335That's the point tho. Darkthrone realized they didn't want to play death metal - they wanted to play black metal (which is why their sound changed by the second album A Blaze in the Northern Sky)
Wish they played quintessence 😢 Edit: they probably didn’t write Quintessence at the time, sorry, I’m a dumbass. But Quintessence is still a brutal song! ❤️🔥🤘💀
Fenriz had the knack for the random odd variations even since the legendary Snowfall. Can't believe a bunch of 17 yr olds recorded that song in a bombshelter live take on some old ass tape player
Man! I had the tape back in 91 and I still looking for the vynil to this day ... THANKS A MILLION TO UPLOAD THIS!! and greetings from Bogota, Colombia.
