I listened to this again last night, I don’t get the appeal. Their LP’s are far better.

Tremolo is the best I've heard.

I don't see how you can like their LPs and not like Slow Riot. Insofar that they sound quite similar. Unless the rambling dude was too annoying for you.

Moya is the best track for sure, but I agree, how you can't appreciate it is dum dum talk
Gabriel Jones

Everything went so right

Gen Z detected. Deathcrush is all the rage with Gen Z.

you guessed right, but do you have a single fact to back that up?

Known a lot of people who got into BM in the last few years (i'm in my 20s). All of them started with Mayhem because of the sensationalist story and skipped over more significant 80s releases like Mercyful Fate and Possessed. It's not a bad EP, but it's put on a pedestal by a lot of naive people who haven't heard much else. If you like it, fine, but I hope you've heard I.N.R.I. and Seven Churches too.

>more significant 80s releases like Mercyful Fate and Possessed
i cannot for the life of me understand why people think Mercyful Fate, outside of lyrical content and king diamonds accidental foreshadowing of corpse paint, are considered a precursor to black metal
musically they have nothing in common with any band like bathory or celtic frost but instead more like Diamond Head and Iron Maiden
not to mention they released their first full length in the year thrash metal was established making their style of music outdated from the very start
Possessed are only important for being extreme thrash and vaguely satanic in 1985 which is enough for most things to be considered "first wave"

Mercyful Fate had a huge influence on Emperor and were seen as part of the BM canon by Mayhem and company. I don't necessarily disagree as a whole, but Don't Break the Oath is a classic and far superior to an 18 minute EP with shitty vocals. Possessed was DM, not thrash, and was very important to BM.

I discovered Mayhem through that black metal flowchart with DMDS as the starting point that gets posted sometimes. I was just a Death fag at the time and was curious about what black metal was, didn't know about the church burnings or anything. Woke up from a nap, played Funeral Fog, and paused the album because the intro was overwhelming in my still drowsy state. Later in the day I played the rest of the album and it grew on me fast. Went a while without trying any more Mayhem until I tried Deathcrush and after that I marathon'd their discography.
And yes, by now I've heard INRI, Seven Churches, early MF, and tons of extreme metal since then. Deathcrush holds up.
