MAYHEM Comments on Announcement of Lords of Chaos Movie

May 6, 2015

Former BATHORY drummer turned film and music video director, Jonas Åkerlund, is set to direct the film based on the 1998 book, Lords of Chaos, which covered MAYHEM’s history and the infamous deaths and church burnings in Norway in the early 90’s.  The book is interesting but is by no means the be all end all of that era of the Norwegian black metal scene.

Rolling Stone spoke with MAYHEM co-founder/bassist Necrobutcher to get his reaction to the announcement:

“This book Lords of Chaos is fucking crap and that some stupid Swedes are gonna make a movie out of it is not OK…I will do everything I can to stop this film…. Tell the Swedes and the Hollywood people to go fuck themselves.”

You gotta love Necrobutcher.
