Hellhammer Demos!

From the site:

First, the three demos will be officially released for the first time ever on a
comprehensive double CD and triple vinyl collection entitled, "Demon Entrails". This release has been specially re-mastered from copies of the original master tapes under the supervision of founder Tom Gabriel Fischer. The demos now represent Hellhammer exactly as the band sounded when recording these songs in June and December of 1983. Drawing from a wealth of previously unknown historical material
and artwork as well as hundreds of unreleased Hellhammer photos from 1982 to 1984, "Demon Entrails" will also feature all lyrics and essays detailing the individual demo recording sessions. "Demon Entrails" will be released as an opulent oversized double CD and as a gatefold triple vinyl album. Both versions will feature a lavish booklet and a poster. There will also be a third, bare-bones low-price CD version, designed to cater to markets which will not carry the standard CD due to its irregular size. This release is scheduled for February 2008, through Prowling Death Records/Century Media.


Second, a comprehensive history of the band will be released in a book written by Tom Gabriel Fischer entitled, "Only Death is Real - An Illustrated History of Hellhammer and early Celtic Frost"

The book will cover the history of Hellhammer, Grave Hill (1982) and
early Celtic Frost (until after the recordings of "Morbid Tales", 1984 to early
1985). It will not solely be a band chronology. The book places the story in both the context of the local and international metal scene in the early 1980's and in the band's surroundings in Zurich.

The archives of guitarist/vocalist Tom Gabriel Fischer ("Satanic Slaughter")
and bassist Martin Eric Ain ("Slayed Necros") provided the basis for the book. Additional contributions have come from original bassist/co-vocalist Steve Warrior ("Savage Damage"), both main Hellhammer photographers, Martin Kyburz and Andreas Schwarber, and collectors ranging from Japan, Europe and the US. In addition to rare notes, photos, and flyers, the book will also include all artwork relevant to Grave Hill, Hellhammer, and early Celtic Frost. Although primarily written by Fischer, additional and extensive commentaries are provided by Ain, Warrior, former drummer/bassist Stephen Priestly ("Evoked Damnator"), and former drummer Bruce Day ("Denial Fiend/Bloodhunter").

Just dug out a copy of the zine ian and me used to do, and here is a direct quote from the words of Tom G Warrior himself when i was asking him about Hellhammer in an interview:

"the HH chapter was gladly closed by me and martin when we finished the band in may 1984. Since 1991, no original masters exist anymoreand neither do any original negatives for HH photoshoots or original artwork, notes or memorabilia. I do not even own a single demo. I am happy that way by choice"

followed by this:

Do you intend to release any of the demos officially??

"No way EVER!!!!! Besides, as stated above, none of the master tapes exist anymore"


:roll:

I did about 4 hours of phone interviews (well half interview half conversation) and a written interview when Dwell records released the In Tribute To Celtic Frost album. It featured the first new material from tom, as his then new band (apollyons son) were on it.

The best thing was that if i rang him and he wasnt in i got his answerphone message which was just him saying "are you morbid????" :lol:

Easier said than done considering I've spent 3-4 months attempting to and bear in mind Hereford is hardly a large city.

TBH, i find it hard to believe when anyone says they cant get a job. The truth is probably nearer to the fact they cant get a job they want. I have done some shite jobs in my life, and left when i got something better. Every town let alone city has numerous employment agencies nowadays and they are full of tedious factory jobs and poorly paid dead end jobs, but they are not careers but stepping stones. I have never been out of work in my life, and i have had 2 jobs when younger that i hated with a passion.

The truth is that too many people are workshy and dont want to do shitty jobs, yet complain they have no money. Maybe your circumstances are different, i dont know as i dont know you, but as a generalization, i know this is true. I have had management positions on the food industry for a lot of my working life and in these positions, due to the fact that we havent been able to recruit indiginous staff for vacancies, we have employed a lot of kurds, poles, pakistanis, lithuanians, portuguese etc and they for the most part are hard workers and appreciative of having a job. Then we get the unemployes all bleating that immigrants are taking all the jobs which is why they are unemployed. !!!
