I'm not a Satanist but it seems like a rather reasonable belief system (unless we're talking theistic satanism, which is ridiculous).
But the new Deathspell EP is fantastic.

Drought is probably my favorite DsO release :O
Yeah atheist Satanism is kinda just extreme Hedonism but there are many variations on Satanism.

I have no issues with Satanism. Satanists tend to be some of the nicest people around.
My biggest hangup with getting into black metal is finding out that the band members are Nazis. I don't want to accidentally enjoy a band fronted by Nazis.
Are any of these guys Nazis?
I dug the first few minutes of what I heard.

Quite an obscure band, yet I believe they just get better and better. I really hope they'll also play live some time despite their current reluctancy. I'm definitely a huge fan!!

lol no I was just surprised by the rather insane attack on Satanism. Well I'm not defending Satanism I don't think anyone here is a Satanist :D . I don't that DsO are on the "woooo Satan side", but more on the side that questions god and his importance, and yes, probably doesn't see the point in an advanced society at times. I think it's an interesting point even if I don't agree with it. |
Yeah I know what you mean, I like the whole "questioning God side" but until I came here and read that interview, I thought that's all Deathspell was. But they're also all about destruction that's where it gets goofy and simply not logical. But other than the "being happy watching everyone suffer" side they're really cool and I enjoy trying to decipher their lyrics. This is the epitome of Progressive Black metal... almost makes Meshuggah sound like Metallica

^ yeah that interview was really early in their career so it'd explain the ridiculously hilarious attempt at kvltness I would like to think they're a bit more rational and... well, intelligent these days :D

I'd been called a Satanist before and considered it something of a compliment. I'm actually a nihilist.
So yeah. Are these guys Nazis or not? I need some new music.

I don't think they're Nazis I think they're very open minded about who should suffer; everyone with no relation to race, gender, sexual orientation, glasses or no glasses :D .

Well I can get behind that. Suffering is what most humans spend most of their time doing anyway, even if they're unaware of it.

I think that suffering slightly always is being OK in a way. Idk... There's like a fairly normal level of "ok" which constitutes a bit of suffering from your boring life or something like that.
