From what I hear he even manipulated a woman into harassing a member of another band who I guess he didn't like. Even manipulated someone else into trying to break him out of jail. And have you seen his bat**** crazy Youtube posts? Do you give Qwerty a pass because of just how cartoonish Varg is, or just because you like Qwerty? Or because it's become a musical meme that's lost any emotional power? Or are we all just missing out on condemnatory PMs?

Calm down and just let people like the music they like.

but yeah, separate art from the artist always. thing is, XXX's music is ****ing garbage so it doesn't really matter.

For him, I found his music before I knew the ****ty things he's accused of. I still like it because I enjoy music, I don't care about the novelty of music, just the music. I'm sure there are a few artists you like that have done ****ty ****ed up things that aren't public knowledge because they aren't in the spotlight.

If the accusations end up being true, because you have to give him the benefit the doubt, and I honestly don't doubt he'd done it because he seems emotionally disturbed, (she also seems like a shady bitch too so there's probably a middle ground) then I'll probably never buy anything from him again and just steal all of his music. But I can't sit there and high road anybody. It's just the most lazy and superficial appeal to morality there is. Okay, so you won't appreciate the music of somebody who is accused of doing horrible ****, you're so above me. I hope they give you a shiny metal atop your pedestal. For me, I'm not going to fake ****, I'm not going to deny indulging in something I really enjoy and I'm not going to do what the others do and rip any musical credit or merit that he deserves just because of the **** he's done. This art speaks to the souls of a lot of people like me, and it honestly helps because I am as emotionally unstable as him so why rip the one good thing he's doing in spite of the disgusting things he's done? This whole thing where I can't like his music because of this or that just comes off really fake to me. And I'm really good at spotting fake ****.

And as for his fans being apologetic, they're ****ing stupid. I have a bad habit of liking things with ****ty fan bases.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

I don't necessarily feel like I'm on a moral highground for hating him but I'm also caught in a circlejerk of my friends hating him and his actions so it's hard to seperate those ideas and discussion from you and your positions. I apoligize.
