Fails WP:MUSIC: bootlegs are not notable without substantial coverage in reliable, third-party sources. None provided, none found. Mdsummermsw (talk) 13:39, 15 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep ... The now infamous photo of Dead, slumped over his bed with his brain hanging out of his shattered skull was used as the front cover the a live bootleg, 'Dawn Of The Black Hearts', Dead's final MAYHEM concert recorded in Sarpsborg. Although the official explanation for Dead's death was that he had sliced his wrists with a large kitchen knife then shot himself, the 'Dawn Of The Black Hearts' cover raised questions, as it clearly shows the knife on top of the shotgun. link ... Mayhem were already notorious following the suicide of their vocalist Dead in 1991, after which Euronymous took photographs of the scene (later used as the cover to a Mayhem bootleg release) and, allegedly, ate some of his brains. link ... A favorite recording of many for its feral versions of these songs, this disc contains the essential summary of the Mayhem discography. link ... Is it even possible for a bootleg recording to be even more notorious or notable than this? --Bardin (talk) 14:07, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Reluctant as I am to give more publicity to sick people in need of help, probably notable. Keep. DJ Clayworth (talk) 15:10, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
