> I think Trollheart´s decision to ditch those LP cds is very understandable, and it´s mirrored by the local council in Watson´s hometown, who are ripping up some commemorative paving stones that had been laid down in his honour.
> I suppose that some suspicion must attach to the band, but I still think that "Innocent until proven guilty" is the best basis for acheiving justice, so we should be reserving judgement on their collusion. > Nowhere is it written that good luck and good sense necessarily go together, a fact amply illustrated by this remark:- ^ You´re a lucky one,Tuna: unfortunately six million European Jews were denied the chance of joining you in your vile and gratuitous boast. ^ So that´s how the Chinese recently landed their moon-rover...

Nope. Love Burzum, Absurd, and Grand Belial's Key. Obviously this isn't the place for this discussion, but if you'd like to take this to the Black Metal thread or PM I'd be happy to.

I used to listen to these guys when I was in school. I never would have thought in a million years back then that Ian Watkins would be such a sick, fucked up human being. I only had their first two albums The Fake Sound of Progress and Start Something, both of which I've long since parted with due to losing interest in them. Looking back I think they were a fairly crap band.
Should people destroy their CDs/delete their mp3s because of this? It is a delicate subject but it's up to them really, if they can still listen to their music regardless of what happened then I'm not going to criticise them. I they want to throw their CDs off a huge cliff and into the sea I'm not going to stop them either. I still enjoy listening to Burzum regardless of Varg. However I really do feel sorry for the remaining band remembers who clearly had no idea of what was going on. To have people stop listening to their music because of this is cruel on them. Also, this has now become what's possibly the most disturbing music video ever:

Tuna, a few things: 1. Your Hitler analogy is hopeless inaccurate and inappropriate. Everybody knows what a scumbag Hitler was, so anyone who sits down now to read Mein Kampf does so with that knowledge, so that's their choice. I'm talking about listening to music and then some years later finding out about this horror. Not the same thing at all. If anyone who has never heard LP now wishes to do so (God I hope this doesn't have a backwards upsurge for their albums!) then that's their choice: they know what to expect. 2. "... that we care"? You can speak for you. Unless others express similar sentiments -- which so far as I can see they have not --- then you're talking about one individual, so it becomes "that I care." And I don't care that you don't care, but please stop trying to speak for a group. I'm not saying everyone does care, but some do. Also, this is not about me; that part of the thread is being derailed by your comment, so thanks for that. 3. Why do some people have to throw in snide comments to attack the person who started the thread, just because they don't like them? It's totally childish. Tuna avoided commenting on this man's crimes and jsut sniped at me instead. Real mature.

Condemning the guy for his actions is beating a dead horse at this point, I wouldn't be saying anything new. But so that it's not lost on anyway, yes he seems like a depraved, very mentally ill guy. You don't know anything about me, and that wasn't a boast (a bit provocative, maybe). It was an illustration of my world view of taking in as many perspectives as possible in this life. Doesn't mean I have to agree with each & every perspective, part of seeing their world view is so that I can see the flaw in it and reject it on my own terms for what it is, rather than rejecting on principle and (in Hitler's case) a bastardized understanding of what he was saying propagated by Western society.

On reflection, I think perhaps I over-reacted to a comment that struck me as sounding worse than you probably intended it to sound. You are of course entitled to read what you like - and if you are dipping into a lot of bizarre material, I hope you come to a balanced assessment of it.
