Dead is the one Mayhem guy I actually kinda feel bad for. He didn't strike me as a bad person, just really odd, but he hung out with a very toxic group of people.
I mean, in an alternate universe where he got therapy, cut himself off from Mayhem, and made his own black metal band made of less toxic people, he probably also could've done well, and may even still be alive to this day. He's considered to be one of the best black metal vocalists ever, so that band might even have become the more memorable black metal bands. So yeah, it wasn't the stage part that was the problem, it was the untreated mental illness and the Mayhem (especially Euronymous) problem.
I'm not saying the stage part was entirely a problem just that he urgently needed to get therapy and separate himself from euronymous and the whole scene at that time

Fair enough, I'll give him the Mayhem Maybe Okay Guy Award
he needed serious help, not a stage to sing from :sadness:
