Today is the birthday of Jon Nödtveidt. Jon was an incredible musician and served as the main songwriter for Swedish black/death metal band Dissection. I believe that Nödtveidt was an artistic genius and his great contributions to metal are undeniable. Much like many other brilliant artists, Jon had quite an intense dark side and at times he was extremely troubled. Being convicted as an accessory to a 1997 murder was one of his lowest points in life and Jon's prison sentence is one the reasons Dissection was only able to record three full length albums. Upon his release in 2004, Nödtveidt began a rebirth of Dissection much to the enjoyment of fans who still remembered and appreciated his beautiful songwriting. Dissection achieved much success after Jon served his sentence and their final album “Reinkaos“ showcased a much different approach to their music compared to their previous records. In August of 2006 Jon decided to take his own life during a Satanic ritual. A self-inflicted gunshot wound within a circle of lit candles brought him and his career to an end. Jon was a devote follower of the Misanthropic Luciferian Order and it is said that he felt he had achieved his life's destiny and wished to die at the peak of his existence. This video production may be my best work for this channel yet and my hope is that fans of Dissection can appreciate what I've created. I'm happy to honour the memory of Jon and showcase his tremendous musical talents. 🤘😜💀 All donations are welcome and appreciated. #Dissection #BlackMetal
