So we don't have to have long protracted discussions of what kind of -ist I am, here are my views on race in a nutshell: Neo-Nazis and fascists, it's lazy and stupid to be proud of something you had nothing to do with like what race you happen to be. PC obssessives and liberals, it's painfully candy-assed to be ashamed of something you had nothing to do with like what race you happen to be. If you bothered to read the "What It's About" blurb at the top right of the page you might remember that you might find some things here that you don't agree with. The views of the bands are their own and don't necessarily reflect my ideology or political views. So you can spare me your outraged (and most likely anonymous) comments about how evil Hitler was, and you can spare me your morality, I'm not interested. With all that being said, here is Finist from The Ukraine. Finist has created, with Awakening, a truly bizarre album of upbeat, almost Disney-esque, symphonic metal, with lyrics about how awesome being white is. Creepy in more ways than one.
if you like this kind of awkward, WTF happy metal, check out LYKATHEA AFLAME by ELVENFRIS. Death metal with blast beats that veers wildly between totally dissonant parts and really happy cheerful parts.
ReplyDeleteI love this kind of silly shit. Very bizarre to hear those lyrics over this oddball music. Keep digging up the good stuff Aesop, its appreciated.
ReplyDeletePost something about Arghoslent on a message board populated heavily by the under 21 set and you'll incur such a tsunami of my-mommy-told-me-it-was-bad faux mortal outrage all you can do is laugh and shake your head.
This is one of the craziest record of all-time... surely a good laugh!!! Saldy once you stop laughing you realize it's crap.
ReplyDeleteThis is incredible. It makes so little sense, I'm constantly expecting every single band member to break into killing laughter at any moment.
ReplyDeleteI am completely in love with the heavy, real heavy Eurovision song contest vibe going on in Time has come. Goddamn fantastic.
It's blatantly racist, but the music is just so hilariously bad that I simply can't take it seriously enough.
