Cadaver - Demos & Live 1988-1991 (Cassette)

Thrashy death metal excellence from the pits of the Norwegian metal underground.
CADAVER was the first Norwegian band to push the limits of speed with blast beats that the scene hadn't yet witnessed. From the DIY hairdryer and distortion effects used to simulate thunder in their early intros to their avant-garde approach to songwriting, this release is a essential document of a band that refused to fit into a box.
Prior to Norway becoming synonymous with black metal, the land of fjords gave rise to many a noteworthy death metal band too. Founded by underground legend Anders Odden in 1988, CADAVER produced a couple of highly influential demos eventually securing them a deal with CARCASS members' Jeff Walker's and Bill Steer's label Necrosis records for their landmark album Hallucinating Anxiety in 1990.
This long-overdue compilation covering the whole output produced by Norwegian death metal kings CADAVER before the release of their landmark album will surely please any fan of the band and then some.

A vital document of early Norwegian death metal history remastered from the original tapes.
