Sumerian Cry

Sumerian Cry is the debut studio album from the Swedish metal band Tiamat.

The album was recorded at Sunlight Studio, Stockholm, Sweden, in 1989, when the band was known under the original name Treblinka.

This particular track was intended to be included on a compilation-CD released by Jon "Metalion" Kristiansen (editor of Norwegian metal fanzine Slayer).

"Where the Serpents Ever Dwell" was later covered by black metal band The Ruins of Beverast on the vinyl edition of their album Foulest Semen of a Sheltered Elite.

Only photos of Hellslaughter and Juck are shown on the backcover, because Emetic and Najse were ex-members when the record came out.
