Mayhem is a black metal band hailing from Ski/Oslo, Norway. Formed in 1984-1993 and then again in 1995, they have become notorious for their dark history. This includes the tragic suicide of singer Per Yngve Ohlin, the murder of Øystein Aarseth by Varg Vikernes, and a series of church arsons that led to Vikernes' conviction.

The current lineup consists of Jørn "Necrobutcher" Stubberud on bass, Jan Axel "Hellhammer" Blomberg on drums, Attila Csihar on vocals, Morten "Teloch" Iversen on guitar, and Charles "Ghul" Hedger on guitar.

Over the years, Mayhem has seen various former members including Kjetil Manheim on drums/percussions, Sven Erik "Maniac" Kristiansen as vocalist during different periods, Per Yngve "Dead" Ohlin as vocalist until his untimely death in 1991, Louis "Count Grishnackh" Cachet (aka Kristian Vikernes) on bass guitar for a brief period and Snorre "Blackthorn" Ruch and Rune "Blasphemer" Erikson both contributing as guitarists at different times.

MAYHEM's 2007 release 'Ordo Ad Chao' saw the band at their darkest. The acclaimed album features one of the heaviest album mixes in their career. It showcases Rune "Blasphemer" Eriksen's angular riffs, Hellhammer's drumming taken to new heights, and the demented vocals of Attila Csihar clawing, screaming and howling along the way. The deadly combination gave audiences a glimpse into just how uneasy black metal could sound. This unrepentant display of extremity captures MAYHEM at their most deliberate, and would birth countless imitators to follow.
