What is a hipster? Look at this fucking hipster...

is the singer for that band still in prison? y'know, for killing and eating his mate?

I think he's out already or very soon. I wonder what he'd make of his seeming popularity amongst London's hip young people.

He got out in 2009 Ithink. He recorded two new albums in prison and also went absolutely nuts.

im quite a big fan of black metal.
or used to be at least.
i still listen to a bit of decent stuff.
mainly gorgoroth and dimmu borgir.

Dimmu Borgir I like, 1349 too and 3 Inches Of Blood!

Lets be honest, he was pretty nuts before he went in.

I've always found "true" black metal to be pretty shit for one reason or another - it's a sorry state of affairs for a genre when the quality of music is going to be almost directly proportional to how racist the members are.

Love the ambient end though (i.e Wolves In The Throne Room and the French stuff).

There's definitely a lot of good stuff around black metal but it's true, the "real" black metal is a bit crap! Wikipedia on Varg Vikernes beliefs makes some interesting reading though!

Why has Murtle started a pisstake on tynan?

possibly a McCarthy/Murts combo

Katy Perry is hot.

Bathory made the only black metal worth listening to.

Imho

she's yawn inducing.

Great now I have 5 wikipedia tabs open #wikicoma

Man, Vikernes is a real character. He's clearly a really intelligent person, but he's come to some fairly batshit conclusions about stuff.

A friend of mine is a massive Burzum fan, and also gay. I asked him once how he managed to reconcile the fact that Varg is hugely homophobic, and that he uses his music to espouse his philosophy, more so than other musicians (making it hard to properly separate the music from the man). His reply was something along the lines of 'you can't tell what he's on about anyway, and I like the way it sounds.'

Fair enough.

most of that black/death/not very nice to anyone at all/metal is ostensibly unlistenable.

and this.

Haha! This is my mate Dev, who is very much a hipster but a great musician.

Day off Max?

/peers between office blinds...where's that package i wanted delivered over an hour ago?
/taps foot, looks at watch...

Haha! This is my mate Dev, who is very much a hipster but a greatly under developed and horrifically talentless musician who writes childish and immature music that says nothing, does nothing and means nothing.

I'm sorry Max, but I had to fix that.

Oof.

Harsh.
He could be the next Jim Morrison...

Harsh.

if he is hailed as that i will slit my throat all over his fucking face.

Get fucked, you wanker

judge for yourself

That was 5 years ago, and to be honest they were a great band, put on a great show every time and wrote some of the most creative stuff I've heard in the last 10 years.
