About the Mystery of Satan
Mayhem’s first studio album, titled “De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas” was recorded in a private studio in Oslo. Euronymous hired Varg to play bass in place of Necrobutcher, and they hired a new member of the Black Circle, named Blackthorn, to sing in Dead’s place. As per usual, this became a contest between Euronymous and Varg, they challenged each other on their musical ability, but Varg’s playing on this album came up short to Euronymous’ brilliant guitar work.
