Korpiklaani – Wooden Pints

das — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 17:31:29 +0000

If you’ve never heard of the genre ‘Folk Metal’ I’m sure after hearing this you’ll be left scratching your head and thinking, ‘What the folk was that?’

They raise their wooden pints and they yoik and sing

There’s men, underground
Who have never seen the sun
But they really know how to party
Little men from underground
Who have never seen the sun
But the really know how to party

[Chorus:]
They raise their wooden pints and they yoik and sing
And they fight and dance ’till the morning

Tables full, reindeer meat
And the camp fire shines and the brick walls are full candles
Tables full, wooden pints
They don’t care about their sins
They just wanna get drunk and party

Long war is now past
Only good men have lasted
They need women, meat, beer and rum
Fight battle full of blood no thoughts about god they just slaughtered killed and tormented

True Norwegian Black Metal

das — Mon, 16 Mar 2009 20:49:54 +0000

This is a very entertaining little doc about the Norwegian Black Metal scene, focusing mainly on the infamous Gaahl, lead singer of Gorgoroth. If you’re not familiar with Gaahl, you may remember him from his interview in the film ‘Metal: A Headbangers Jouney.’ When asked what his musical inspiration was he paused, and with his trademark deadpan delivery replied, ‘Satan.’ See An Interview with Mayhem for a clip.

Be sure to watch the final clip in the series, where the interviewer asks one too many dopey questions (approx 6:30).

We went to Norway to interview Gaahl, lead singer of the band Gorgoroth. Gaahl really believes in this whole ideology behind what he’s doing—he’s not just some rockstar fronting a band. The thing with Black Metal is, in Norway, everybody is exactly the same. There’s nothing to rebel against, because everybody’s really well off. It’s one of the richest countries in Europe. There is no lower class, it’s like middle-class white kids everywhere—no one has anything to complain about. And he’s this sort of eccentric figure amidst this sea of contentment and sameness. The way I see it is, in America you have guys like 50 Cent who are supposed to be the “villain.” Kids like him cause they’re parents hate him, and that’s basically what Gaahl is. He’s their musical villain so to speak. But there’s a lot of different sides to the scene.

Trollkotze

das — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 01:48:12 +0000

Trollkotze (translation: Troll’s Vomit) is a Black Metal comedy band from Germany.

Featured here is the brilliant song, Im Märchenwald (In the Fairytale Forest), which comes from their first album The Microwave is down. It seems their releases are limited editions, very limited. They only printed 10 copies of Microwave, and their second album Violence in the Forest which featured such anthems as How come the Beer in the Bass? and Gib mir Deinen Stromkram(Give me your current stuff) was limited to 25 copies. They are currently recording their eagerly awaited fourth album, I’m sure it will live up to everyones expectations.

Without further ado:

The Greatest Black Metal band of all time.

Thats a bold statement, but I stand behind it. After you see this video you’ll have no choice but to agree. My grasp of German leaves a little to be desired, but the music, the visuals, and the tone of this evil dirge says everything you need to know.

Usually black metal fans are very laid back, but this audience goes insane. Its a little scary to watch, it reminds me of the beatlemania epidemics of the 60’s.

Anton LaVey – Speak of the Devil

das — Sat, 05 Jan 2008 22:28:49 +0000

This is a short clip from the OOP 1993 film Speak of the Devil by Anton LaVey and Nick Bougas. It was created by LaVey to dispel myths and misconceptions about Satanism and the Church of Satan. I’m not sure it they accomplished thosee goals, but it certainly is an odd and entertaining 90 minutes of cheap 60’s style film making. The Black Pope is portrayed as a thoughtful and almost goofy nature loving artist, factotum and all around nice guy who gives you a tour of his home, private organ performances, a rundown of some of his more interesting jobs, and a chance to meet some of his artificial human companions. Interspersed with interviews, history, philosophy and commentary on a wide range of subjects it remains a very interesting film.

This clip shows LaVey’s pet lion, whom he later takes to the supermarket. Its narrated from the lions point of view by LaVey, who seems to channel Mel Blanc.
