According to various sources, Euronymous took bits of Dead's skull and made them into necklaces for members of the black metal scene, including the band's drummer ]. ], the band's bassist, was so disgusted with Euronymous' actions that he left Mayhem. He was replaced by ] ], who ] two years later.

Bullmetal, a penpal of Euronymous and owner of Warmaster Records, was sent a copy of one of the photos Euronymous had taken of Dead's body. Euronymous had taken additional pictures of Dead's body in different positions (one of them with Dead "sitting half up, with the shotgun on his knee"), but these photos were later found and destroyed by Euronymous' father after he was killed in 1993, 2 years before the album bootleg was released.<ref>Lords of Chaos, p49</ref>

==Release==
''The Dawn of the Black Hearts'' was first released in a limited pressing of 300 ] copies by Warmaster Records, owned by Colombian musician and Euronymous ] Mauricio "Bullmetal" Montoya,. This original version contains eight songs from a concert in ] on 28 February 1990, recorded without permission from the band members. The original issue bears the band's logo and the album title in golden ink.

The album has been reissued many times by various bootleg record labels. The original pressing, titled ''The Dawn of the Black Hearts'', had its title slightly altered on subsequent pressings with the first "The" removed, rendering the title as simply ''Dawn of the Black Hearts''. Many of these later versions and pressings of the album include four extra songs, which were recorded at the band's first-ever concert in ], on 20 April 1985, with Messiah on vocals. Most of the re-releases erroneously claim that the additional songs come from a 1986 ] show with ] on vocals, but the band did not play live at all during that year, or for the rest of that decade. They would not play in Lillehammer until after the release of '']''.

Most recently, ''The Dawn of the Black Hearts'' was officially reissued in 2017 on vinyl under the name ''Live in Sarpsborg'', using a photo of Necrobutcher as a new cover. This 2017 release uses improved audio from a master source.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://burningshed.com/mayhem_live-in-sarpsborg_vinyl|title=Live in Sarpsborg|website=burningshed.com|language=en|access-date=2018-11-23|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181123065622/https://burningshed.com/mayhem_live-in-sarpsborg_vinyl|archive-date=2018-11-23|url-status=live}}</ref> In 2018, ''Live in Sarpsborg'' was one of many albums that were compiled into and released as the ''Cursed in Eternity'' box set, which features never-before-seen live footage of the Sarpsborg set.
