Vance is the Angel of Death. KK is an asshole. Hanneman was cool af when I met them. Tom too.
Its lacking in good tourist locations to protest at. Same with Darfur.
The next big thing will be like, Free Geneva! Or Free Marseille!
China became too economically powerful. Corporations, universities, Govt. backed off to avoid backlash and losing access to the Chinese market.
Similar to how criticism of Israel is shut down by money/political pressure or you are just labeled antisemitic.
China cucked John Cena.
So, I was listening to Ghost when I picked up my daughter today and Cirice was playing. She told me she liked the song and asked who it was so she could hear more from them. I don’t know if it’s a good thing she likes the same music as me.
I have a cool framed picture of the song’s lyrics over a Death’s Head Moth. Meliora is my fav record. Make sure she listens.
Square hammer? Cirice? That band?
They’re really good
Yeah.
Ghost stirred up a lot of controversy in the United States
The satanic imagery coupled with this band being mainstream didn’t sit well with many.
I think the satan stuff is needlessly edgy… but that’s probably why they’ve been so successful in the first place
All about satan, dressed up as members of the Catholic Church… but also clean vocals?
I’d watch them live.
It’s campy fun. I roll my eyes but love the music especially the riffier stuff
He Is… Ritual…
This. It’s just a joke/performance.
I like Ghost. I do listen it occasionally. Really well made pop-rock stuff, but also some variation between the albums.
You sure are playing into commonly-held American stereotypes about Scandinavians. I know all about The Finnish Black Metal Menace, thanks to Elon Musk’s purchase of twitter.
We’ve been aware of you people, your saunas, and your not so subtle efforts at influencing our affairs from afar,
Hahah. Definitely.
I do listen almost everything. These days I’m into classical stuff a lot. But I have always sweet spot for some really rusty nordic and Eastern European metal. Maybe it’s genetical? Or something to do with living in a country where you don’t practically see the sun for months during winter.
Burzum? That’s a weird and twisted story.
Yes. Vikernes is radical and twisted guy. But Burzum’s music is vital part of the Norwegian BM. I’ll try to separate the person and the product.
I’m not sure how much I listen to Burzum these days, but it came first to my mind.
Generally European Black Metal has pretty strong ties to political radicalism, but I try to ignore that part. As a different example, I listened a lot of RATM when I was younger, but I really never cared about the anti-capitalist message the band has.
Ya…angsty BM dweebs. I do like the aesthetic, but these guys are nerdssssss
This nerd burned a church and committed a murder. That crosses a line for me.
Ya I know the entire history. I have the book. Still dweebs.
