Witchgrave's s/t album. I think they had an EP before this but this is their first full length.

Quorthon may have been a racist prick, and quite possibly even a neo-nazi, but I can't deny that the man created two of the greatest metal sounds I've ever heard.

You know, after reading an interview Quorthon did with some website back in the day, where he referred to a black guy he saw on some talk show as a "fat negro", I've been pretty sure he was at least somewhat racist. Then I'm looking up the lyrics to "Home of Once Brave", and I see this...

Quote:
Out of the water
The cold black Nordic sea
Risen towards the eternal sky
The land lays open and free

Up high the Mountains
Where the wind catch its speed and chill
Snowstorms are born
And rage loud through the valleys and the hills

Above two Ravens
Messengers of the wise One eyed God
Who rules this land
Of the strong and the great

And tall
Beautiful
Behold this thy land
Open and free
This thy home of the brave

Dark endless forest
Where at the day hides the shadows of the night
Snowcovered vast lands
As great as the eternal sky

Now in the midst
Of this wild and this open and free
He placed my kind
To possess this their land to be

Above two Ravens
Messengers of the wise one eyed God
Who ruled this land
Of once strong and once great

But now
Forgetting to behold this their land
Once ours [once] free
This my home of once brave
I guess you could say that's not necessarily definitive, but yeah, I'm going with neo-nazi.

Speaking of racists who make amazing music...

I just read Lords of Chaos, and now I've developed a worrying fascination with NSBM. As much as I love Cannibal Corpse, they just don't have quite the same sense of legitimate danger and wrongness as a bunch of Odinist neo-Nazis. I guess it's like porn. Once you've watched enough anal, you need to take the next step to DP. And then even that gets boring so you go to trannies. And then you are well and truly lost to the world of "normal" porn. I was hoping that this would suck so that my interest might die quickly, but alas, I quite dig Absurd so far.

P.S. On a completely unrelated note, I just shaved my head this morning.

Absurd are a great band, and I'm particularly fond of their more melodic moments. In these moments they sound positively mainstream:
