Review & Rating
“Deathcrush” Original vinyl is the first black metal release from the Norwegian scene. It’s Brutal, absolutely row and primitive Black Metal
My rating for “Deathcrush” album is:
7,8/10
“Great groove and memorable guitar riffs. 15 minutes of headbanging!”
How much does a vinyl copy of “Deathcrush” “first press” EP cost?
Mayhem’s Deathcrush on a vinyl record is expensive to obtain, as you will see in the list below. Only one thousand hand-numbered copies have been pressed. Many of the vinyl record versions were sent to the recipients in handwritten letters of Euronymous. The current price for a MINT copy in its original version, which is the most expensive, at the moment, is ≈2700€
If you don’t want to spend that much money, you can buy a 2009 vinyl reissue for ≈20€ (Back On Black BOBV049LP – Deathcrush (Vinyl, 12″, EP, Limited Edition, Reissue, Red Transparent, Gatefold) – UK)
Without a doubt, the Mayhem’s Deathcrush is an excellent addition to the vinyl collection of every Black Metal Collector
