Triumph of Death is a demo tape by the Swiss extreme metal band Hellhammer. It was released in July 1983. It was recorded in the bands rehearsal room on portable equipment sometime in June 1983, along with the material for the unreleased Death Fiend demo, by producer Rol Fuchs. The two demos were typically combined into one, simply called Triumph of Death. Along with Hellhammer's other demos, it had a major influence on the emerging death metal and black metal genres.
