12:32 - Metren

We’ve all probably paid for art made by horrible people. There is no way to be aware of every single band’s exact ideology, let alone the beliefs the individual members. Just one reason why… tbc

12:25 - VileVick-Bryant

Yea I think their very unique with the vocals. Glade I stumble across this youtube vid that mentioned them along with Urfaust and Odraza. [link]

12:20 - corrupt

no worries. I had already stopped listening to them when I learned about their ideology. Which is a damn shame as some of their material is just excellent.

12:17 - VileVick-Bryant

oh Damn sorry to bring that up :(

12:16 - corrupt

I just skimmed the news pieces about that and wish I hadn't. I knew they were nazis but not about the cp charges. And I actually paid to see them once 😭

12:15 - VileVick-Bryant

I mean CP

12:14 - VileVick-Bryant

I believe Dagon was accused of having PC. I don't remember if they were true or not.
