"Chewed Giblet, a peasant boy
born Jan Hesderm
In Norway, who lived in darkness
For two thousand and forty, nay, six years
Before the Earth parted.
He became the mightiest of warriors,
Chewing his victims giblets, hence the name."
Chewed Giblet
was born Jan Hesderm, a dirty peasant boy, in Norway. At
4 years of age he witnessed the brutal slaughtering of
his parents by the feared Forthron the Evil, and under
these most unlikely of circumstances, became Forthron's
adopted son and apprentice. He grew in magnificence and
stature under the tutorship of Forthron and now he is
truly feared universally. He gained his title at the age
of 12, when he displayed a penchant for eating his
victim's giblets, which was nurtured by Forthron into a
trademark of his killing.
During his
early tutorship, Chewed Giblet learned the art of Skaldic
Poetry, an ornate and technically complicated literature
composed in praise of the battle exploits of various
Nordic chieftains. He was later to use this craft in his
lyrical compositions with OGRE, and it is rumoured that
he wrote the traditional Norwegian Saga
"Trykkbeholder Røyking".
For many
years, Chewed Giblet experimented with derivations of
medieval plainchant and polyphonic religious music, and
in 1991 joined Forthron in his quest to create the
ultimate squidgy sound of symphonic cacophonies. In 1993,
he caused a controversial furore when he made the
statement in a "Washington Post" interview,
that OGRE were "bigger, and more Eviler than
Satan". In 1992, Chewed Giblet was entered into the Guinness
Book of Records as
the fastest and most brutal Bass player in the world.
