Does Steve Warrior ever sing? I thought Tom Warrior did all the singing. It says vocalist, so maybe Steve did other vocals parts? marnues 04:23, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
Aother thing, is Steve Warrior even on Apocalyptic Raids? When does Martin Ain take over the bass as it says in the Celtic Frost page and as I've seen elsewhere on the net? marnues 05:41, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
Steve Warrior sang on a few tunes on the Triumph of Death demo. Steve Warrior was kicked out of the band after the Triumph of Death demo because his performance was "sub-par" which is hard to believe. The Satanic Rites page here is incorrect because there is no bass on the demo. Both demos were pretty much jamming sessions with vocals recorded and added on later. There was no bassist at the time it was just Tom and Bruce. Martin joined at Apocalyptic Raids. I don't know how to close this thing here with a name but yea I'm just trying to help you out. I'm a Celtic Frost/Hellhammer fanboy so I know this stuff and by the way, the rehearsal '82 demo does not exist. It was believed to exist after appearing on a Celtic Frost/Hellhammer/Bathory bootleg with one of the tracks being Triumph of Death '82 rehearsal when in fact it was played by another band. The name of that band remains unknown. The Death Fiend demo itself was bootlegged by their only roadie. The Triumph of Death demo was a compilation of both Triumph of Death and Death Fiend demos. Death Fiend was never officially released. They already had the booklet set up for it so the roadie got a hold of the first half of the Triumph of Death tracks and bootlegged it.

"Satanic Rites" clearly has bass on it, played by Martin. Ask him yourself, he's easy to contact. Steve did vocals on various Triumph of Death and Death Fiend tracks, it's very easy to tell him from Tom. Death Fiend was released by itself at one point. They never had a "roadie" as they never played live. The story of some crazed roadie bootlegging their releases came from whoever doing it wanting to make the bootlegs seem a bit more "legit". Get your facts straightened out.
- This is rumour control :-). Steve Warrior did the vocals on "Crucifixion", "(Execution) When Hell's Near", "Decapitator" and "Triumph of Death" (all with Tom), and "Blood Insanity", "Death Fiend", "Metallic Storm", "Hammerhead", "Bloody Pussies" and "Chainsaw" (alone) for the Triumph of Death / Death Fiend sessions. There is bass on Satanic Rites, but not played by Martin... all bass was handled by Tom. All information from the Demon Entrails compilation. Blackmetalbaz (talk) 12:03, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
- Oh, and there is no indication in Demon Entrails or Are You Morbid? (the Celtic Frost biography by Tom Fischer) that Death Fiend was ever released officially. Blackmetalbaz (talk) 12:09, 13 March 2008 (UTC)
