Music is one thing, person is another thing.
Filosofem is a masterpiece in that kind of music.
But lately it seems to hard to understand the huge separation between art, artist, and person.

It's ludicrous to compare artist and felonies.
You are so focused on his positions and crime past that you don't hold a second to consider the irrelevance about this and his merchandising.
You're allowed to refuse to give him your money, the same way anyone can simply refuse to give money to someone else. But in the…
You talk for personal experience. Isn't it?
Ok, where is the red line?
Do you also stop to watch Clint Eastwood movies (Trump, alt-right, etc) ?
What about the rapist… Roman Polanski?
Vikernes paid for his crime. He was sentenced, and then he was released.
He's a jerk. But he's an artist. Two different things.
"Evil" is a moral judgement. You can consider someone…
I don't care to be fluent actually.
I prefer to be less snob than you are. That's more important.
Racist.
Fair.
But you stop to buy its music or wearting t-shirt just because he's a neonazi murderer? I mean, i can understand if you don't buy a political book written by Vikernes, but there's no a swastika or something on Filosofem t-shirt….
Italian here.
Se vuoi parlo italiano, così non ci capisci un cazzo.
Or dialect, if you prefer.
So?
Yup. Because it's not my language. :)
If you want, try to speak italian and be my guest.
It was a criminal. Just like Vikernes.
Do you know how many copyright royalties you pay to living criminals simply watching a movie depicting their lives? :)
Be my guest.
Also, i don't care if he's a neonazi, i like his music. Period.
I love Burzum music. I buy the t-shirt.
I don't have to share his political or philosophical view.
If you don't like, your problems.
Very simple.
I don't fucking care if someone is hurted. Don't. Fucking. Care.
So?
I can't wear or buy a Jack the Ripper movie t-shirt because, well you know, Jack the Ripper actually murdered women?
So? Why I have to care who is the artist if I like its art?
So?
Still one of the most influential artist in black metal scene.
Deal with it.
