by [Heavy Metal] [Death Metal] [Black Metal] Autopsy
United Kingdom: Peaceville, 1992. From the personal collection of Fenriz, one half of the revered Norwegian black metal duo Darkthrone, accompanied by his extensive album-specific DJ notes, handwritten on the verso of a slip printed by the Norwegian post office.
In a September 29, 2011 interview with Last Rites, Fenriz reflected on the tendency towards a more commercial sound in the late 1980s: "the near death of DEATH metal, luckily saved by Autopsy and other organic heads."
Acts of the Unspeakable is the third album by California death metal band Autopsy, who are credited with pioneering death-doom. Previously, drummer and vocalist Chris Reifert was a member of Death, performing on their debut album, Scream Bloody Gore (1987). He formed Autopsy after Chuck Schuldiner decided to move back to Florida.
Compact disc (CD), accompanied by the printed album inserts and housed in the clear plastic jewel case.
Provenance: From the personal collection of Fenriz, acquired in September 2018 from Helvete / Neseblod Records in Oslo. (Inventory #: 77066)
