I'm surprised no one's brought up their defiantly un-BM lyrical subject matter yet.
― Simon H., Tuesday, 4 February 2014 23:53 (ten years ago) link
Held my breath and drove through a maze of wealthy homes. I watched how green the trees were. I watched the steep walkways and the white fences. I gripped the wheel. I sweated against the leather. I watched the dogs twist through the wealthy garden. I watched you lay on a towel in grass that exceeded the height of your legs. I gazed into reflective eyes. I cried against an ocean of light
Crippled by the cushion, I sank into sheets frozen by rose pedal toes. My back shivered for your pressed granite nails. Dishonest and ugly through the space in my teeth. Break bones down to yellow and crush gums into blood. The hardest part for the weak was stroking your fingers with rings full of teeth..
It's 5 A.M...and my heart flourishes at each passing moment
Always and forever

"I'm surprised no one's brought up their defiantly un-BM lyrical subject matter yet."
The mind boggles at the level of bravery required for such defiance.

this particular fallacy is called ad hominem btw

it's a Star Trek reference, Dr. "Bones" McCoy usually wore a blue shirt, and Captain Kirk's shirt was yellow, but here they are talking about breaking Dr. McCoy's will and making a coward of him.

No this is ad hominem. Your teeth are stupid and your hair smells and when you breathe out it smells like mustard

Part of what puts me off about this record and this band in general is how "I see what you did there" it is.

That imagine is clever and I like it, but: "I could do that" is a very different sentiment from "You shouldn't have done that"

btw my li'l player thing hit me with Earth's Like Gold And Faceted earlier, and DAMMIT if that isn't the best metal shoegaze experience I've had, like, for a while

also, ad hominem is obv any attempt to defame an argumentalist's character, especially with regards to the field of argument. who the fuck cares if I like Redjetson aged 19

are people talking about neige's involvement with "aryan supremacy" in the wake of alcest blowing up? i know he has attempted to distance himself from that in one interview. just kind of wonder if it's coming up at all or if people just dont GAF

had never heard of it - elaborate!
― imago, Wednesday, 5 February 2014 02:25 (ten years ago) link
he played on the peste noire album of that title, but was only ever an ancillary member of that band, if a member at all, and has since said publicly least once that he was never involved/interested in their political/idological crap
also ppl into alcest etc who are looking for recs, try Les Discrets
― 1 P.3. Eternal (roxymuzak), Wednesday, 5 February 2014 02:28 (ten years ago) link
*ideological
oh! well i have their album 'folkfuck folie' but was never aware of their questionable leanings (whether or not they're aryan supremacists, it's perhaps an unhealthy fascination)
― imago, Wednesday, 5 February 2014 02:31 (ten years ago) link
peste noire are not just questionable, they are explicitly racist

have put Ordo Ad Chao on, just to convince myself I'm still metal, also coz it's amazing and I've had a hankering to hear it all day thanks to this thread

xp to imago
i pretty much worship indria saray who played bass on several of their recordings, so it's hard for me to write off listening to those - it's complex, he's an asian dude that they had in the band for the fucked up reason that he made things smoother for them, like in situations where NS bands would see trouble, at certain border crossings etc. it's hard for me to lump him in with them and say "fuck them." i've never heard him speak on the matter at all tbh.
― 1 P.3. Eternal (roxymuzak), Wednesday, 5 February 2014 02:46 (ten years ago) link
i should also say that they admit he is the greatest bassist in france, so not JUST for that fucked up reason, though they did always bring that up as a justification for him being in the band
peste noire being nazis really pissed me off, lorraine rehearsal was one of the great rehearsal albums every but they are especially gross racists yeah

hmm. well i don't think any of their music stood out for me particularly but it is possible i may have enjoyed a few of their songs on shuffle mode. it's gone now; there's a lot of other great metal i won't have to listen to with the somewhat jarring thought of 'these lyrics might be militating for a white france'. poststructuralist appreciation grows harder in such explicitly political circumstances. has saray played on anything less uh problematic?

Not that I think anyone should stop listening to music made by racists or people who have immoral or unethical opinions. Personally, I have a complex view on the music I listen to, including BM, precisely because of where Norwegian BM is said to be rooted.

OTOH I did turn the song off and start playing Alcest, so make of that what you will
