CliffordTheBigRedDemon Warrior of Metal Warbringer was fine when I saw them. sad Tyr was the worst I've ever seen. I've seen his posts online and they get pretty bad, but he ended the set with "And remember! RELIGION IS BULLSHIT! GOODNIGHT!" I left a little bothered. And with their new cover art, I won't be buying any more albums.[/quote] what is it like now? *looks up new album* and the new Alestorm is GREAT I think I'm gonna look up this Tyr album art too just out of curiosity. I've never even listened to them. I already have my eyes on the two albums I want.

CliffordTheBigRedDemon http://www.metal-archives.com/images/2/2/6/4/226405.jpg seriously it's so lame I wouldn't exactly call it "lame," I have to say it looks pretty cool. Plus pagan religions far predate Christianity among all the barbarian peoples, Germanic and Scandinavian, which in the case of many tribes such as the Franks and Lombards also coincided with them settling into more permanent civilizations. I can understand them wanting to sing about a more free, wild era, but I suppose they could do that without having to lash out at the religion that replaced theirs.

I'm...not sure what just happened here but there was something about Christian bashing and stuff. First off I don't approve of that. But now on to something a little more light. Did anyone know that Pestilence had an album come out this year? I was on youtube looking up a song by them and apparently they released Resurrection Macabre. Sorry if I keep bringing up Death Metal artists, but they seem to being going in on the new release front as of now.
EDIT: Oh yeah, that's right. Most people don't listen to Pestilence past Testimony of the Ancient and Consuming Impulses. Well I'll venture past that point and see what it's all about. Also, new Obituary this week! However I don't think I'll be able to get it THIS week but I'll get it soon enough.

I just didn't want to seem to be a one trick pony or something. I like other types of metal, but Death Metal is heavy on my plate right now.

No, Hari has a royal stick up his rear. I understand the historical anti-Christianity view from bands, and songs like that I sualy dont find overtly offensive because it happened and it pissed a lot of people off. (Not like the pagans and Atheists NEVER EVER did such a thing...ahem xp ). But, Hari is a jerk. He's has gone out of his way with this album and his latest speeches, ect to express and pick at religion as a whole, not just Christianity. But Christianity seems to be at the heart of his tyrade. Yes, I made a funny.
Giving up Tyr was the hardest musical decision I ever had to do, but I dont regret it. Hari has gone out of his way to be intolerant, call it what you want but anyone that says "religion as a whole is a disease that needs to be exterminated, even when people keep it to themselves" is downright intolerant.
It's not about history with Hari or Tyr, it's just his personal vendetta. And that's something that my life can do without. Musical genius or not.

I can understand that, and see where you are coming from. 3nodding Back when I was a more into religion then I am now I was like that. So whats your new favorite band?

That's pretty awesome I have to say giving up a band for your beliefs (no sarcasm). I think I'm gonna give up listening to Behemoth because Evangelion took it a step too far. Now I understand having your beliefs and that bashing Christianity is still the "in" thing in metal these days...but the "Whore of Babylon" sitting on the Beast as cover art? Sometimes I question do they even know the full context of that statement they're making? Do they even realize that the Whore gets killed by the beast? They're pretty much setting themselves up for failure right there. I like Death Metal as much as the next metal head but there are bands that I just stay away from for that particular reason above and I think unfortunately Behemoth made that list...however I do like the way their music sounds. Sounds really awesome. Though to be honest the only album I listen is Demigod because that seems to be the most "accessible" one. Just my two cents.

Hollow, I get the feeling there's some method to his madness. I think he can comprehend his own hypocrisy in stating that all forms of religion must be eradicated from the Earth, but then proceeds to openly wave a flag for paganism. If not, I find it hard to believe he's the same person responsible for Tyr's music. My best guess is that he's doing the "******** all religions" schtick to appeal to the sort of kids you don't let into MR. You know, the kind that view metal and anti-religious rhetoric as a means to an end, an end of angsty teenage rebellion against parents, teachers, or what have you. The kind that go on YouTube and forums and post s**t like "relgion is bulshit, i lsten 2 mayhem n slayer and dimu borgir my parents h8 it but i don care HAIL SATAIN 666!!!1"

I laugh at any band that praises Satan, because if you look at the story, Satan was defeated. Hell is not his kingdom, but a place built for his own torment. So basically, they're openly praising a loser.
