Mayhem Announce ‘Atavistic Black Disorder / Kommando’ EP

---

Black Metal pioneers Mayhem are returning with a vengeance! The band have announced a new EP titled ‘Atavistic Black Disorder / Kommando’ which boasts extra material from the bands 2019 album titled ‘Daemon’. But that’s not all! The B side will feature 4 covers of bands that paved the way for Mayhems destruction.

If that wasn’t enough, The EP will also feature Billy Messiah and Maniac on vocals for 2 of the tracks! With the release of the EP, Mayhem are set to close the Daemon era with one last bang.

Vocalist Atilla had this to say on the upcoming EP. “I always had some punk influences. I guess it comes from my childhood when we were constantly looking for more extreme music. That’s how I discovered Dead Kennedys, GBH, The Exploited, Sex Pistols, U.K. Subs, Discharge, Rudimentary Peni and so on, in the early 80’s, alongside heavy metal. But then I discovered Venom, that was a game changer!”

Bassist and founding member Necrobutcher added “We got some extra time in the studio recording the Daemon album two years ago, all band members were asked to punch in two cover tracks for some extra material. I chose songs by Deathstrike (The Truth) and Death (Evil Dead) which were both used as the bonus tracks on the album. My other contribution was to bring in two old members because of their obvious connection with punk: Maniac on the Dead Kennedys track and Billy (Messiah) on the Discharge track and some of the others.”

The EP is set to release on July 9th and is available to pre-order here!
