IMMORTAL (NORWAY)

Abbath doom Occulta and Demonaz doom Occulta, created Immortal in the autumn of 1990. They had both been involved in the Norwegian metal scene for a couple of years, Abbath in Old Funeral and Demonaz in Amputation. The original line-up of Immortal was completed by Guitarist Jorn Inge Tunsberg and Gedda. Even though Armagedda remained in the band for nearly two years, he didn't have the same attitude as Abbath and Demonaz. This would later become the reason for his departure. Still in a heavy period of inspiration, the band started to write some material in the winter of 1990-91. Intense rehearsing followed and later in 1991 they recorded their first demo entitled "Suffocate". Guitarist Jorn got kicked out of the band. He started Hades later on. Immortal have never returned to the four-piece line-up again. Meanwhile, French label Listenable Records showed interest in the demo and wanted the band to do a 7" single.
