This the one?

no, this one

[Noodle Lizard]

I've also seen two bands associated with convicted homophobic murderer Faust - Emperor and Zyklon. I don't know if he was performing at any of the times I saw Emperor, but I've recollections that he was a guest drummer when I saw Zyklon. I guess I didn't think too much about it when I bought the tickets.

I remember being genuinely a bit frightened seeing Gaahl/King-fronted Gorgoroth supporting Cradle of Filth when I was 17. Not only was it my first "black metal" show, but I remember a woman going round the pit warning everyone to get out as if there were a fucking snake in it, but it was actually because a group of proper skinhead swastika-tatted Neo-Nazis had turned up just for Gorgoroth. Coupling that with everything I'd heard about Gaahl specifically - serving time for having kidnapped and tortured a man - it definitely felt "dangerous" in a way I hadn't experienced before.

Of course, a few months later Gaahl came out of the closet and started helping to design summer dresses and generally became a lot more smiley and pleasant. Before that, though, he really was a scary figure. He also had his history of Nazi patter in the 90s, but appears to put that down to it simply being the "cool thing" to do at the time.

It should always be remembered that a lot of people from those scenes really were kids when they took off. If I'd been in the public eye around that age I would probably have been a right cunt as well, especially if trying to seem "evil" was what sold my records.

What's worse than a nazi? A fucking poser.

[Egyptian Feast]

Nah, actual Nazis are worse. At least posers can wise up.

[ProvanFan]

If I pose do I not bleed?
