The Dawn of the Black Hearts - Live in Sarpsborg, NORWAY 28/2/1990 is the most famous bootleg of the Norwegian black metal band Mayhem . On this is a performance by the band in Sarpsborg on February 28, 1990 in poor sound quality. The bootleg is particularly known for its record cover .
History of origin
After the band's singer, Dead , shot himself in 1991, guitarist Euronymous photographed his body before notifying the police. He intended to use the images for the next Mayhem LP; They did not appear in the artwork for Mayhem's debut album De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas , however.
Instead, Mauricio "Bull Metal" Montoya from the Colombian band Typhon used them on the bootleg The Dawn of the Black Hearts - Live in Sarpsborg, NORWAY 28/2/1990 , which he released in 1995 on his label Warmaster Records. A letter from Euronymous is printed on the back of the LP, in which he reported on Dead's death and his plans. Jan Axel Blomberg later accused Metalion , the editor of the Slayer fanzine and Head Not Found label boss , of being the co-editor of the bootleg and said that Montoya had given the picture to Montoya, as he was “the only one [sic!] To have this picture from Euronymous got". However, Metalion dismissed these allegations as silly rumors.
“The cover doesn't necessarily show Dead in the prime of his life. I would never have done that. People should remember a strong, proud Dead. "
