You're not helping your own cause.

That's black, not death.

Ah, did not know that. I remember reading about it and thought that wasn't the first time he was accused. I'll leave it up unedited to show my own ignorance.

You can say the same about a lot of the metal bands, this is where it gets murky. Are they using WWII or Nazi imagery to display the horrors of war and racism, are they using it for shock value in a juvenile attempt to…shock people? Or are they hiding behind shock imagery as a way to explain away their noxious…

EU membership. Freedom of movement between EU states. This is what caused Brexit. The British said "We don't want Varg in our country" and they made sure of that.

Yeah, I kept my mouth shut about that band because I don't know them, then it took me all of two clicks to realize he had good intentions on that artwork. What wasn't mentioned by either the author or Fell is that the guy who made the artwork was accused of a brutal rape.

Same with the homophobia, when I frequent metal sites their comments have a lot of use of the term faggot and the defense of it sounds like a bunchnof boys in highschool.

That is true to an extent but black metal as a genre was founded by at least a few right wing nationalists and that has been hard to excise that fully. Something tells me EDM and indie rock have less bands that openly flirt with Nazism.

Why don't you ask the ACLU the same question? Nazism should be called out when it rears it's ugly head, and we don't have freedom from the consequences of our speech, but a liberal democracy will always have pockets of fascism and racism because people have the right to think that way. It is inevitable, but needs to…

If you're going to call bands out for fascist behavior, it doesn't do well to hand wave away Bowie's flirtation. I may be incorrect but I am pretty sure he did some nazi salutes during that time period. If that's the case, then you need to examine why you are dismissive of that and how fans of these bands can look the…

While I agree there are a lot of right wing nationalist and nazi elements in black metal that need to be called out. Marduk is not a nazi band and it was total bullshit that their show was cancelled due to the ignorance of people who don't listen to them.

I didn't know that about him.

The most dicks…per capita.

Ah. I stand corrected. Didn't know about that show and in that case, he should make a statement.

Yea but like. If he dressed up as Isis, dressed his friend up as a reporter or and then mock beheaded him and sprayed fake blood around, I would get people being pissed. He just mimes axing someone. That's like if you're walking around the torture chamber tour in London and took a picture of your friend pretending…

I usually hate people who call out p.c. police because they are usually deflecting some noxious behavior. But jesus christ, this is tame shit.

He puts his money where is mouth is by contributing to a charity that has stopped numerous cases of sex trafficking. Just because he worked with a guy 10+ years ago doesn't mean he has to go out of his way to say something about it.

Aw man, I kind of liked him. Oh well.

Is he Hyde from that 70's show?

Up to 50 years.
