Comes as black Vinyl in a gatefold.

Hellhammer existed for only two years, from May 1982 to May 1984. During this time, the band released three demos, a 12' EP (Apocalyptic Raids), and the legendary death metal compilation album, as well as a number of unreleased songs. Considering the mythical status of Hellhammer in the global metal scene, it is almost unimaginable that the majority of this music was never performed live for almost four decades. Hellhammer's successor band, Celtic Frost, founded by former Hellhammer members Tom Gabriel Warrior and Martin Eric Ain, initially performed two Hellhammer songs but eventually stopped, as the band quickly developed its own material. The band Triptykon, founded in 2008 by Tom Gabriel Warrior, occasionally performed a rare Hellhammer song at notable concerts. However, the majority of Hellhammer's work remained unperformed until the release of Triumph Of Death.

The revival of Hellhammer's music was an idea that Tom Gabriel Warrior and Martin Eric Ain had been discussing for many years, triggered by their renewed collaboration in the reformed Celtic Frost in the 2000s. The first steps towards realizing Triumph Of Death, named after Hellhammer's most famous song and intended as a highly respectful and authentic homage to Hellhammer, were finally taken in 2014, and the band was officially formed in the autumn of 2019. Triumph Of Death consists of people who not only love this music but also truly understand it.

Since their inception, Triumph Of Death has played a number of highly acclaimed concerts, such as Hellfest (France), Wacken Open Air (Germany), Party.San (Germany), Brutal Assault (Czech Republic), Psycho Las Vegas (USA), Merry Christless (Poland), Inferno Festival (Norway), Maryland Deathfest (USA), UK Deathfest, Hell's Heroes Festival (USA), and Mexico Metal Fest. From the beginning, the band intended to release live recordings from some of these concerts. Triumph Of Death is an ongoing project based in Zurich, Switzerland.

This debut live album captures Hellhammer in its most original and vital form, alive on stage, and is a document of what extreme metal fans around the world have experienced since the band's formation. The album was recorded at three festival performances in 2023 in Houston (USA), Munich (GER), and Barroselas (PT).

The double LP edition includes a 24-page booklet, a band poster, and an art card print. The CD is a 24-page deluxe mediabook.
