MORBID (SWEDEN)

An almost legendary Stockholm Black Metal act. Frontman Dead would later come to prominence with MAYHEM and become an infamous 'Black Metal Martyr' after his apparent suicide. MORBID, forged during 1986 by bass player Slator. Formative MORBID members included Dead, guitarists TG and Klacke. MORBID, having recruited 16 year old guitarist Ulf Cederlund, first attracted attention with the 1987 demo 'December Moon', recorded over just 16 hours at HEAVY LOAD's Thunderload studio. The band line-up comprised Dead (Per Yngve Ohlin) on vocals, guitarists Napoleon Pukes (Ulf Cederlund) and John Berger (a.k.a. John Lennart), Der. Shitz (Jens Näsström) and Drutten (Lars-Göran Petrov). MORBID fractured as John Lennart and Dead opted out, the latter joining MAYHEM at this juncture. Regrouping, the new look MORBID followed up with the September 1988 'Last Supper'. This second set, now seeing John Berger on vocals, was recorded at Sunlight Studio by Tomas Skösberg and closed out with a rendition of the James Bond theme. Both Lars-Göran Petrov and Cederlund made their mark with the influential ENTOMBED. Petrov also worked with THE PROJECT HATE, COMECON and HYPOCRITE. Jens Näsström had association with SKULL.
