Morbid - Year Of The Goat [Compilation] (2011)


I.
Followed with a fascination of war, horror and violence, Pelle Ohlin formed a band in the early 80's.
Due to some problems, this band split-up and Pelle made a new band called "Ohlin Metal".
Unfortunately, this band didn't last very long too.
--------
II.
He met Gehenna (Johan Hagstrom) in a record stores and they decided to form a band called Armageddon.
(only fragments are preserved though).
Few times later, Pelle met Slator (Mats Gonzales) and Anders Gonzales.
In early 1985, the band changes its name to Scapegoat. (logo made by Anders Gonzales).
--------
III.
Once again, the band met some problems.
In 1986 the band evolved into Morbid :
- Dead (Pelle Ohlin) : singer
- Gehenna : guitar
- Klacke (Marcus Klack) : guitar
- Slator : Bass
- Gehenna's friends : drum.

Later, Dr. Schitz (Jens Näsström) joined the band and replaced Slator on bass, TG (Torbjörn Gräslund Tege) took Klacke's position as guitarist.
Drutten (Lars-Göran Petrov) joined the band as drummer.
First live appearrances of Morbid startedin spring of 1987 especially at Birkagarden and Ultrahuset.
Summer of 1987, Napoleon Pukes (Ulf Andreas Cederlund) replaced TG on guitar.
On December 5th 1987, Morbid entered the studio to record their legendary demo : December Moon.
Around 1987/1988, Gehenna left the band and before the end of January Dead moved to Norway and joined Mayhem.
John Scarisbrick joined Morbid as singer and Zoran as guitarist.
In 1988 they recorded the demo : Last supper.
Unfortunately, without Dead and Gehenna it was not really Morbid anymore...
--------
IV.
In  the fall of 1990, Dead, Dr. Schitz and Gehenna finally got together for a rehearsal, their first for almost three years.
They planed to record a single which would includea new song called : "I love the dead" and a new version of "Deathexecution".
Dead was very serious to reform Morbid and was probably to leave Mayhem.
Unfortunately, he commited suicide on April 8th 1991.
(from : Year of the Goat).
 
---·▪•●•▪·---
 
''We know'' (!?):
 
-  One (or more) "Ohlin Metal" tape(s) exists.
- A scapegoat logo
- Few Morbid rehearsals
- A lot of live recordings
- Few live videos.

The first band logo was inspired by a comic called "The tombs of Dracula", created in 1972.

On May 7th, 2011, important musicians within the Swedish extreme metal scene, including Erik Wallin, Peter Stjärnvind, Erik Danielsson, Erik "Tyrant" Gustavsson, and David Blomqvist, performed a tribute to Morbid entitled "Mörbit" in memory of Dead at Kafé 44 in Stockholm, Sweden.

Pelle Ohlin/Per Yngve Ohlin was born a cold winter day of January 16th of 1969 in Västerhaninge (Sweden).
 Son of Anita and Lars Ohlin, he was the eldest child of three children including a sister (Anna), a brother (Anders) and a half-brother (Daniel).
Pelle was an unpredictable and perseverant child in all what he did.
He was fascinated by war, horror, comics and had a particular humor.
He had a rough childhood especially when the family split-up.
Also, he was not understood with other children, they didn't understand who he was and were easier to reject or even to attack him.
This was the reason of his famous "near-death experience", it occurred in the Autumn 1982 when Pelle was beating by a gang at school.
He changed school after this and met friends who shared his interest in music.
Music, horror interest and fascination for the morbid going deeper and deeper and decided to form a band.

On 8 April 1991 he committed suicide.
He was buried at Österhaninge Begravningsplats in Stockholm.
 


- Lyrics of "Burn my coffin" (Marduk - Those of the unlight) were written by Dead.

- Among band members, only Necrobutcher went to the Pelle's funeral.

- Varg sent shotgun shells as a Christmas gift, including the shells Pelle used for his suicide.

- According to Ulf Cederlund, the name "Morbid" was a reference to Celtic Frost's "Morbid tales" Ep.

-  Pelle was fascinated by horror stuff, black humor, etc... but he was also fascinated by medieval history.

- Morbid - Disgusting Semla : A Semla is a traditional sweet roll associated with lent and especially shrove Monday.
It consists of a cardamom-spiced wheat bun which has its top cut off, and is then filled with a mix of milk and almond paste, topped with whipped cream.
The cut-off top serves as a lid and is dusted with powdered sugar.

- Necrobutcher has one of the most important Mayhem collection, including several videos with Pelle.

- Before to use "Dead" as nickname, Pelle was called "Geten", the Swedish word for "Goat".
If you look at the first page of "Year of the goat " you can read : Tillägnad Geten.
Translation : Dedicated to Goat.

- Morbid - Wings Of Funeral. The intro was taken from the movie "Evil Dead" - 1981.
