Re: Heavy Metal - If there was a God, this is what he would listen to

Music and idealogy are inseperable, and as such Burzums music reflects his idealogical profundity. Music is a direct interpretation of will, and music works best when idealogy is closely correlated with the sounds of the music. This is why if Slayer wrote about going to the mall still set to a backdrop of choatic guitar riffs the lyrics simply wouldn't work.

Agreed. Still not a fan of his music or ideology. I would give his ideology a pass (see mention of Genocide SS on my album list) if the music moved me but it does not. Also note my disdain for commercial metal throughout this thread and many other music threads on 2p2. That stuff is ideologically vacuous and therefore largely unappealing to me. But I will not necessarily disregard all of it, some of the musical parts can be appealing. But major points off for allowing suits to control their artistic output.
We can agree to disagree on Cannibal Corpse and Burzum. I think CC have 3 amazing albums. You seem to hate them. Like I said, I have read Lords of Chaos, which covers Burzum and Varg in depth and still not a fan. You are. C'est la vie. Boring world if we all agreed all the time.
