Is this the guy who shot himself and his friend used his skull fragment as a necklace?

oui. he found his friend dead and went to the pharmacy to get a disposable camera and took a roll of film before calling the cops. one of the photos became the band’s album cover

That album was a bootleg I think. I don’t think he actually ended up using it for that. Maybe i’m wrong.

No. It’s definitely a bootleg and sounds like absolute garbage.

So the same as most of the norwegian black metal recordings of the era?

still the most iconic black metal album cover, sums up the entire movement of angry Nordics

The picture was used for a bootleg. The only original member of mayhem still in the band was and is furious about it.
