NOT A HALLOWEEN-DATED GIG, BUT THE GRAPHIC DESIGN COULD'VE FOOLED ME.

NOTE: I don't know about the rest of you, but I've never seen this flyer design before. How 'bout that MISFITS logo, though?

Euronymous Interview in Decibel of Death, ‘87. English Translation. Ft. Euronymous’ depraved torture fantasies involving Coca-Cola.

‘Decibel of Death’ was a French fanzine from the 80s. It’s first issue was released in ‘86, and by the summer of ‘87, it switched over from French to English-language. This has been my favourite interview of Euronymous for a long time now, so I decided I’d translate it to English so that other, non-francophone, people could enjoy it too. This issue in particular is from February of ‘87, and was their fourth issue overall.

I’ll add a link to where you can find this, and other D.O.D scans, below. If anybody wants me to translate more French, or Russian, interviews, feel free to PM me.

Note: NDLR is the editor’s notes. Any commentary or context by me will be in bold and in parenthesis, so feel free to totally ignore it. If something is between “« »” it’s because it was already written in English to begin with.

Disclaimer: if some of the sentences sound like the energizer bunny is hooked on an iv rig full of pure meth, don’t blame me, I did my best. Take it up with Euronymous himself. Also, I’m not excusing Euronymous’ poor behaviour, I’m just saying his poor behaviour is kind of entertaining.

Without further ado...

D.O.D: And once again, here’s Norwegian Mayhem. If you remember, we presented them to you back in the May issue of D.O.D. Since then, they released a new demo titled “Death Crush”!! Because of this event, we decided to ask the guitarist of this rather sinister band a few questions.

D.O.D: Okay, there’s been more than a few line-up changes in Mayhem. Can you tell us what the current one is?

Euro: Alright, there’s me on guitars, Manheim on battery, Necro-butcher on drums, and our session vocalist, Maniac.

D.O.D:  And what is the medium age of the group?

Euro: We are all 18 years old.

D.O.D: How long has Mayhem been around for?

Euro: Mayhem has been around since August of ‘84 with this line-up, before that, I played in another shitty metal group that was also called Mayhem. The other members also played in a crappy band before we all met.

D.O.D: How would you describe your music?

Euro: Ah, well, it’s like a wall of sound played at extreme speed all mixed with the sound of a chainsaw!!

D.O.D: In your opinion, who are the biggest posers on this planet?

Euro: That definitely has to be the Swedish group ‘Europe’. «Fuck them!!» I hate this band!!

D.O.D: Ha ha, what would you like to do to make them suffer?

(This is the exact moment where the interviewers realize that Euronymous is literally fucking insane. The editor censors some of the things Euronymous says because he has a very vulgar manner of speaking, so, brace yourselves. To make it abundantly clear— I didn’t censor any of this, if it was me, I’d let him continue swearing ‘til next year if he wanted to. Take it up with D.O.D!)

Euro: First of all, I’d cut them and make them eat their own (bleep)!! Then, I’ll fuck them in the ass with an empty bottle of Coke, and if they’re still alive somehow, I’ll drown them in their own piss!! (NDLR: I’d do the same to a few guys in Germany and Switzerland!!) But all of this is reserved for their guitarist, drummer and bassist, I have a far crueler torture for their singer, for him, I’m simply going to break his mirror and steal his perfume!! Haaaaafuckinghah!!! (NDLR: ahahahaha, this is so much fun!!)

D.O.D: Okay, Euronymous, onto more serious topics, who composes the most in Mayhem?

Euro: It’s me and Necro, but sometimes Manheim comes up with good riffs, he actually wrote most of P.F.A (Pure Fucking Armageddon)

D.O.D: I believe thrashers reacted pretty well to your first demo, right?

Euro: Despite the zero sound of this demo. It's true that it's actually the hardcore thrashers that appreciated it, although it was the others hating it that gave us an enormous promotion like with 'Metal Forces'.

D.O.D: Has there been groups that have influenced you?

Euro: Of course, early Venom has really inspired us, although we don’t sound like them in any way. We’re also influenced by bands like Hellhammer and Sodom.

D.O.D: Mayhem is a common band name, what do you think of other Mayhem (such as NYC Mayhem, Mayhem (WC), Mayhem (Oregon))?

Euro: NYC Mayhem* are excellent, I adore them! (NDLR: me too!!) and they call themselves NYC Mayhem. But as for the other Mayhems, they stink, «fuckin’ shit»,  like the Mayhem that’s on Metal Massacre VI*, they really stink, their music isn’t destructive like ours is at all, they don’t deserve this name, I hate them!!

D.O.D: I heard you guys played a show, how did that go?

Euro: It was really «cool��, it was at a small rock festival that had around 3-400 «discofucks» (NDLR: this is the censored translation) and when we went on stage with our first session vocalist “Messiah”, we broke a bass over their mouths!! We gave these idiots hell!! Ha ha!! (I’ll link the show he’s referring to below)

D.O.D: And how did your other gigs go?

Euro: For now this has been our only show!! And we don’t know how the crowds will react at the prospect of future gigs.

D.O.D: Fair. Since we’re talking about future gigs, what will those be like?

Euro: They’ll be full of occult things, we’ll play in complete darkness and there’ll be red blood spots, chandeliers, smoke, and pig heads on stakes, it’ll be totally thrashing!!

D.O.D: How’s the Norwegian thrash scene? It’s pretty dull, no?

Euro: Right now, «it sucks», there’s no audience, but it seems to be going in the right direction with bands like Vomit*, Septic Cunts, Decay Lust, and Flowers in The Dustbin.

D.O.D: And what kind of things are your lyrics about?

Euro: depravity, like tearing someone’s (bleep), eating worms, and all those fine things!!

D.O.D: What are your favourite bands?

Euro: Really hard question, there’s so many good bands coming out but I think the bands I like the most are old Venom, Deathchamber, Sodom, Necrophagia, Destruction, Death, Kreator, Poison. (No, not THAT Poison)

D.O.D: Do you ever listen to hardcore?

Euro: «Yeah» I like Chaotic Discord, Septic Death, UK Subs, and others. It hasn’t been that long since I went to see Disorder and it was awesome!!

D.O.D: Are you considering going on tour?

Euro: No, not exactly. But soon we’ll play at a Norwegian thrash festival. We’ll also play at a thrash festival in Copenhagen, and probably do a few shows with Kreator/Necrophagia in ‘87.

(No, this isn’t a typo on my end, it actually says ‘87. There’s two reasons why this might be the case. One, it could be an error on the part of the editor, who deserves an interview of his own, or two, it could be an error by Euronymous himself since the interview might have been conducted in January. Euronymous could have mixed the years up as one sometimes does. However, ‘Death Crush’, the demo, actually came out in March of ‘87. What the interviewer and Euronymous are referring to as ‘Death Crush’ is likely ‘Death Rehearsal’, which is exactly what it sounds like, and was taped back January of ‘87.)

D.O.D: I heard you guys are recording a new demo, is it ready?

Euro: We just entered the studio to record the second “Death Crush” demo, but at the moment, we only have three songs. I’m also unsure of whether or not we’ll have enough money to record anything else, and the vocals still haven’t been put to music!!

D.O.D: There’s some rumours that you guys were contacted by certain record labels, is this true?

Euro: It’s true, we got a letter from Axe killer records saying that they were interested in us but they never listened to our music and I also sent them our demo tape but I don’t believe we’ll be receiving any letters from them now!!

D.O.D: Do you have anything to add?

Euro: Of course, «fucking ARGHHHH!!»

There, that’s all :)

If you’re interested in some of the asterisks I put in, here they are in order of their appearances:

*Unlike most of the bands Euronymous named in this interview, NYC Mayhem (and later as Straight Ahead) never released more than a few demo. They were a straight edge band from, you guessed it, NYC— Queens to be exact. Despite never releasing a full album, their sound inspired some grindcore and death metal bands, notably Carcass. They were also straight edge, which makes Euronymous’ mental breakdown over the Mayhem that was on Metal Massacre very, very ironic. Especially considering he was pretty straight edge himself, especially back in 1987– outside of maybe smoking some pot.

Here is their 1985 demo, https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=t-3geR1JbY4

*Metal Massacre is a series of compilation albums starting in 1982, released by Metal Blade records. Typically, these were independent and unsigned bands. Some notable ones include Metallica on the first edition with ‘Hit the lights’. Slayer in ‘83 with ‘Aggressive Perfector’. The ‘84 edition had Voivod, Overkill, and Hellhammer.

The one which Euronymous is referring to, however, is the one from ‘85. Here it is, the timestamp is 14:19 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=HqwfsLvLvuY

It’s really not that bad— certainly not worth the double exclamation points.

*If you don’t know who Vomit are, you must not know much about early Mayhem. They were another thrash band who shared rehearsal space with Mayhem. Torben Grue and Kittil Kittilsen (what a sad fucking name) were also ‘in’ Mayhem at some point. Kittil once shaved off his eyebrow, but I don’t know why. Here is a picture of the dork:

The show Euronymous is talking about: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=mjay2Lmj9C8 yes, this is the show where Euronymous flashes his ass. I think it’s funny because he talks big but he seemed very hesitant to do it, and practically ducked backstage afterwards. Necro, on the other hand, was very proud to have broken his bass.

Well, that’s all I have. If you read this far, I hope you enjoyed the additional notes I left. Outside of a few more interviews of Mayhem, I also have a few obscure Emperor interviews that were posted to the internet in late 90s. There’s an especially funny one where Faust is allowed to interview Ihsahn and Samoth from prison. He’s sarcastic the entire time, refers to the readers as ‘morons’ and proclaims everyone should all die in a nuclear war with the same energy you cross yourself with. Overall, it’s a funny read. I also have one where he interviews Varg, and Euronymous (separately) for his own ‘zine back in the early 90s. Actually— I have A LOT of interviews of Faust for some reason, including two where he’s actually on camera. I might post them if I feel like it, or if somebody wants them. Is anyone here an especially big fan of Faust?

Last but not least, here is the link to the ‘zine:

Jerry Butler (ator)

Jerry Butler (13 de maio de 1959 – 27 de janeiro de 2018) foi um ator norte-americano de filmes pornográficos . Sua carreira durou de 1981 a 1993 e incluiu mais de 500 filmes.

Biografia

Butler nasceu Paul David Siederman no Brooklyn , filho de pai judeu e mãe de ascendência metade alemã / irlandesa e metade Cherokee . Seu avô paterno, Sam Siederman, era supostamente meio-irmão do líder comunista russo Leon Trotsky . 

Butler inicialmente tentou a sorte como ator mainstream, atuando em uma variedade de peças off-Broadway . Ele também teve algumas aparições na novela One Life to Live em 1978 e fez uma aparição sem créditos no filme de terror de 1982 de Frank Henenlotter , Basket Case . Ele geralmente estava insatisfeito com a pressão constante para dormir com homens em troca de peças e começou a se cansar lentamente do esforço desperdiçado. 

Ele entrou no mundo da pornografia hardcore pela primeira vez em 1981, depois de responder a um anúncio na revista Backstage em busca de atores hardcore. Ele fez o teste para um papel não sexual e, depois de um pouco de persuasão, acabou com um papel sexual hardcore no filme Young, Wild and Wonderful, de 1981 .

Seu nome artístico foi inspirado ao ouvir a música "Only the Strong Survive" de Jerry Butler no rádio enquanto ele recebia seu primeiro salário. Butler foi apontado como o ator masculino mais talentoso de sua época, com participações nos esforços adultos de maior orçamento de Chuck Vincent , Roommates (1981) e In Love (1983), este último lhe rendendo o "Prêmio de Melhor Ator" de Hustler .

Durante sua carreira no cinema adulto, Butler fez aparições em mais três filmes convencionais, desempenhando um papel cômico em Preppies (1984), o papel dramático no thriller psicológico Deranged (1987), ambos dirigidos por Chuck Vincent, e no filme de terror Evils of Night (1985).

De acordo com o Internet Adult Film Database , Butler atuou em 656 filmes adultos durante sua vida.

Vida pessoal

Em 1987, Butler casou-se com a ex-atriz infantil Lisa Loring , que era mais conhecida por interpretar Wednesday Addams no programa de televisão The Addams Family na década de 1960. Eles se conheceram no set do filme adulto Traci's Big Trick (1987), onde Loring trabalhava como maquiadora . 

Em entrevista ao Dateline da NBC na década de 1990, Butler descreveu-se como "viciado no estilo de vida", envergonhado de seu comportamento clandestino e do efeito que isso teve em seu casamento. O casal apareceu mais tarde no Sally Jessy Raphael Show , discutindo novamente os danos que a carreira pornográfica de Butler estava causando ao casamento. Butler e Loring se divorciaram em 1992. 

Butler lançou uma autobiografia em 1989, contada a Robert Rimmer e Catherine Tavel, chamada Raw Talent . O livro apresentou um relato interno da indústria pornográfica. Ele foi direto no livro, dando detalhes muito íntimos de alguns de seus colegas de trabalho no negócio e citando a existência de abuso generalizado de drogas na indústria.

Butler ressurgiu em 2003 em um papel não sexual em um filme pornô intitulado Sexy Sluts: Been There, Done That , lançado naquele ano, que foi dirigido pelo rapper underground Necro . Butler também foi convidado especial no álbum The Sexorcist (2005) de Necro. 

Morte

Butler foi diagnosticado com um tumor que foi removido durante uma operação, mas um check-up subsequente após um acidente de bicicleta revelou que o câncer havia se espalhado por todo o corpo e era inoperável. Em 27 de janeiro de 2018, ele morreu no Brooklyn, Nova Iorque , aos 58 anos .

IC INFO

Character Name: John Constantine Alias: Hellblazer Age: 38 Face Claim: Matt Ryan Species: Human Magi Home Earth: Earth-49

History:

Born in Liverpool, England on May 10, 1982, the only son of Tommy Constantine and Mary-Anne Quinn. His mother died giving birth to him and his father held a great resentment to him because of it. John’s childhood was full of abuse and he left home as a teenager.

At fifteen, he formed a band, Mucous Membrane, whose goal wasn’t really the music but to score. Around this time he also met Anne-Marie Flynn, who introduced him to the world of the occult. John quickly excelled in the dark side of magic and earned quite the reputation for himself.

In 2001, at nineteen, John gained the attention of Giovanni Zatara when the magician did a show in London. Zatara made an offer to train John but the young Constantine rejected the offer, his arrogance made him believe that there was nothing the older magi could teach him.

Nine years later, in 2010, John made the trip to New York to see what he could discover in the American shadows. He wandered into a bar where Zatara’s daughter happened to be putting on a stage show. John was smitten as soon as he saw Zatanna and after the show made his way to the stage door to meet her. However Zatanna’s then boyfriend, Nick Necro, was also waiting at the door and John realized he didn’t stand a chance. Surprisingly, Nick invited John to join them. It wasn’t long and the friendship grew to something more between them.

2011 saw John visit Lian Yu to find a manuscript that was assist in his, Nick’s and Zatanna’s quest to find the Books of Magic, the rumoured source of all spells. On Lian Yu, John met Oliver Queen and the pair formed an odd friendship once Oliver realized John’s intentions were good. Oliver stayed on the island but the pair remain in contact.

By 2014, John was back to being on his own. His relationship with Nick and Zatanna had soured after Nick became obsessed with finding the books. In his cockiness, John tried to save a young girl, Astra Logue, but failed and ended up sending the innocent girl to Hell and damning his own soul along with it.

After the incident with Astra, John checked himself into Ravenscar Asylum and remain there for 4 months. However the threat of the Rising Darkness pulled him back into the world of the occult.

Early 2015 saw John reach out to Zatanna and her father to help seal the darkness away. The spell went wrong and Giovanni Zatara paid the price. Zatanna swore to never speak to John again.

Later in the year, John was contacted by Oliver Queen to go to Star City to help restore the soul of Sara Lance. Oliver then also asked John for assistance with Damian Darhk but John just told Oliver to run.

2018 saw John consult the Legends in their face off with a demon named Mallus. The release of Mallus had broke the careful seal put in place 4 years earlier and the Rising Darkness began to slowly make a return. John is now on the trail to find a way to put a stop to it before all of magic  and creation is destroyed forever.

Positive Traits: Powerful magician, knowledgeable in the occult, street smart, protective in his own weird way Negative Traits: Liar, con-artist, arrogant, never appears to take things seriously
