Hail to the might Deathlike Silence Production, Euronymous record-label...

NO FUN NO CORE NO MOSH NO TRENDS



"I sign only the best bands in the world, in my opinion. I WILL NEVER sign a band which exists because of a trend. All the DSP bands will be something special. Most of the labels just spread around a lot of mass produced shit, but we will stand above all that. When people buy a DSP release they will know they buy a ultimate in blackness and quality, with only bands who believe 100% in what they write, I dont sign a band if I like the only, I must think they are best in the world before i sign them."
Euronymous, 1993


Deathlike Silence Productions was founded in the late 1980s. It was the first independent label which focused primarily on black metal. The label was founded by Øystein Aarseth, also known as Euronymous, who operated the label until his murder in 1993. The name was derived from the Sodom song "Deathlike Silence" (from their 1986 release Obsessed by Cruelty).

At first, the label only signed Norwegian acts, but as early as 1990 Aarseth had desired to establish a Swedish branch with Morgan Hakkanson of Marduk, and towards its final years its scope was also broadened to other countries such as Japan. Aarseth was considering signing Rotting Christ before his death.

Euronymous was dedicated to the underground and believe that in every corner of the world there can be the band playing evil music...

There is no borderlines for the true BLACK METAL!!!

Trivia:
Euro also wanted to sign the Polish Imperator, Italian Monumentum and Swiss Samael and planed to reissue Tormentor's "Anno Domini".

After having recorded two demos, Mysticum signed a deal with Deathlike Silence Productions. After the murder of Euronymous in the summer of 1993 the band was left without a record deal.

I have something to say to people that think I shouldn't make the group like that on trendy last.fm. First, read this:

"I disagree about black metal staying underground only. I thought so before, but I have changed my mind. The idea about underground, selling little and only to "true" people, not earning money, not thinking that you are bigger than your fans and so on, everything comes from Hardcore. (...) We must get rid of the "underground" ideas. The real underground have nothing to do with this. It's of course not right if people start playing black metal in order to become rich and nothing more (then they should choose some other music style anyway!), but there is something in between. I wouldn't mind making DSP big and earn a million, as long as I don't change my ways of thinking and being, which is the real important being here. If there were one million black metal fans in the world, most of them would be jerks, but there would be really many true and brutal people as well. The bigger we get, the more we can manipulate people into thinking like us."
Euronymous, 1993
