Behind the Realms of the Dark - CD

MERCILESS' first album The Awakening was released in 1990. It also happened to be the very first release on Euronymous' then newly formed and infamous label, Deathlike Silence Productions. Before their legendary death/thrash masterpiece, MERCILESS cut their teeth recording two demos, Behind the Black Door and Realm of the Dark. Released in 1987 and 1988 respectively, both are rather raw affairs, but what they may lack in skill and sound quality is more than made up for by the unbridled ferocity and youthful enthusiasm of MERCILESS.
