Triumph of Death is a demo tape by Hellhammer released in 1983. It was recorded in the bands rehearsal room on portable equipment sometime in early 1983, along with the material for the "Death Fiend" demo, by producer Rol Fuchs. The two demos were typically combined into one, simply called Triumph of Death, forgetting the Death Fiend title altogether. Trivia: The song "Triumph of Death" appeared on every Hellhammer release, getting slower and longer on every recording.
