Mayhem began writing songs for the album in 1987, with vocalist Dead composing the lyrics. However, in April 1991, Dead committed suicide and bassist Necrobutcher left the band as a result. Mayhem were now in need of a vocalist and bassist to record the album. In May 1991, Euronymous recruited vocalist Attila Csihar (who performed with Tormentor) and bassist Varg Vikernes (who performed solo as Burzum). The year before, Vikernes had allegedly been involved with burning down three churches in Norway. This lineup recorded much of the album during the first half of 1993 at Grieghallen in Bergen.

On 10 August 1993, Vikernes and Ruch travelled to Euronymous' home in Oslo. Upon their arrival a confrontation began, which ended when Vikernes fatally stabbed Euronymous. His body was found outside the apartment with twenty-three cut wounds – two to the head, five to the neck, and sixteen to the back.[2] Vikernes defends that most of Euronymous's cut wounds were caused by broken glass he had fallen on during the struggle.[3] He was arrested within days and sentenced to 21 years in prison for both the murder and the church burnings.[3]

During Vikernes' trial, police stated that they had found explosives and ammunition in Vikernes's home. According to the media, Euronymous and Vikernes had conspired to blow up Nidaros Cathedral, which appears on the album cover. Vikernes denies this allegation in a 2009 interview, stating "I was getting [the explosives and ammunition] in order to defend Norway if we were attacked any time. During the Cold War, the United States and the Soviet Union could have decided to attack us".[4]

After Vikernes was arrested for the murder, Euronymous's parents requested that the album not feature the bass parts recorded by Vikernes. Hellhammer allegedly agreed to remove the bass parts and re-record them himself. However, he was unable to do so, and Vikernes's contributions remained in the final mix.

The album was eventually released in May 1994, shortly before Vikernes was imprisoned. It features the last lyrics written by Dead before his suicide, and the last songs recorded by Euronymous before his murder.Wiki
