Abbath (Immortal) - Black Montanas of Thy Septentrio # 1 - 1992

Immortal, ca. 1992.  From L to R: Armagedda, Abbath, Demonaz

I'm pleased to bring you another old piece with Immortal (Norway), taken from the Black Montanas of Thy Septentrio 'zine, incidentally the same one from which the previous interview with Varg Vikernes was taken.  The date is an estimation on my part, as I could see no date printed on the 'zine itself, and online the date attributed to it is 1990, which is impossible.  This is explained further in the file's notes.

This interview with Mortiis, bassist with Emperor (Norway) on the Wrath of the Tyrant demo, Emperor mini-lp, and As the Shadows Rise EP, was recreated with great attention to detail from an old computer print-out taken from a long defunct fansite.  Further notes regarding its source and transcription are available in the file itself.
