The metal scene is so small and insular that you don't have to go the full six degrees of separation to connect any band you may care to mention with another more ideologically suspect group. Like, I'm fairly sure there's a photo out there somewhere of Robb Flynn standing next to the Slayer lads giving a Nazi salute. Now we all know how ridiculous that is, given what an enlightened soul Robb actually is, but it wouldn't take much for someone to make an assumption there.

I'd love to see that prick get cancelled. There's a Vio-Lence doc that has him calling someone a fa*got at the start of it. There should be a 10 hour edit of just that made and put on youtube. I'm joking. Sort of.

Felt like that a bit too but then I had a long hard look out the window talking to myself and I thought that was a bit of a racist way to feel so I filmed myself doing it in black and white and made it a social justice commentary instead. Thank god the spirit of Robbie flynn is alive and well and not cancelled

In fairness to him he's at least consistent. I can't recall a bandwagon since 1994 that he wasn't on.

Burn My Eyes still isn't the worst tbf. Pity about the undercurrent of nazism but we can't win em all I suppose

I wonder will this have an effect on Grave Upheaval and Cemetery Urn getting gigs in future? The people involved in trying to cancel gigs presumably see these 2 bands as nazis by association, and promoters may not want to book them because of the controversy.

I didn't know that. I'll have to burn those CD's to protect my piety. Nazism  really is everywhere  :laugh:

I bought CD's directly from Rob Darken so they're definitely coming for me!

We should both be cancelled and sentenced to live out our days listening to anarcho punk.

Ah good old Rob. Bought a load of vinyl from him recently myself. Have to say his customer care is second to none. Courteous emails, signed records - delightful.

When these anti free speech laws come into effect most of us on here could end up in court because of some of the releases we have in our collections.

I'm currently listening to Deathsiege who are from Israel so I think that cancels out my dark dealings with Darken.

He's a gent and the prices are very reasonable in fairness. He's the Mr. Price of the Polish black metal scene.
