Synopsis

In the underground heart of 1990s Norway, Øystein "Euronymous" Aarseth was the mastermind behind one of the most influential and controversial genres of music ever created—black metal. As the founder of the iconic band Mayhem and the infamous record label Deathlike Silence Productions, Euronymous carved a path that blurred the lines between art, ideology, and madness. The film follows Euronymous’ tumultuous rise, from the genre's creation to his mentorship of young musicians, including Varg Vikernes, whose eventual betrayal and violent act would forever mark Aarseth’s legacy. With a focus on his relationships—both with the darkness he embraced and the people closest to him—"Echoes of Death" reveals the contradictions of a man who strove for artistic immortality while flirting with nihilism and self-destruction. As Euronymous channels the raw energy of darkness into his music, he becomes a symbol of rebellion. Yet his ambitions lead to violent clashes, internal betrayals, and the ultimate unraveling of his life. Through explosive performances, philosophical confrontations, and haunting moments of reflection, the film will take audiences deep into Euronymous's mind, exploring how his vision of black metal—a movement of anti-establishment anger and artistic purity—ultimately consumed him.
