Thomas gabriel fischer biography books

Tom Gabriel Fischer was no stranger to the ordeal of writing a book. His first memoir Are You Morbid?, published in 2000, exposed the many hardships Celtic Frost experienced on their path to metal legend. His second book needed a special touch: Only Death is Real was an archival record of Fischer’s experiences with early extreme metal band Hellhammer complete with striking black and white photos. While other publishers came calling, it quickly became clear that Bazillion Points was the right fit. The three-time Hall Of Famer talked to us about his memories of writing Only Death Is Real and his plans for reissuing an expanded version of Are You Morbid with Bazillion. Fischer and Triptykon will perform a set of Celtic Frost material at the Decibel Beer and Metal Fest in Los Angeles next month.
