those are Blasphemous? lol.
dive into some black metal.
It's not really blasphemy when your entire fanbase consists of atheists. It's just preaching to the choir.
you know nothing about the genre if you believe this to be true.
I don't know a whole lot about metal, just what I've gathered / heard from hanging out with the odd person that's into it. In my experience, they have all been staunch atheists.
fans yes, but there are plenty of bands that stand behind what they write/perform about 100%.
It took me awhile to comprehend this exchange, but I'm going to want a followup nevertheless.
- Mick suggests that black metal fans are atheists and that the bands themselves are atheists, thus it's the same as Christians going to church.
- Dale disagrees and suggests that the fans are actually not atheists, but rather devil-worshiping lads and lasses. And acknowledges that while some fans may be atheists, the band's however are the Real Deal, Scandinavian eel rapists and the like. By extension, he also doesn't seem to think that atheism is blasphemous.
Have I got it?
i must apologize to mick for totally misunderstanding his initial post. i thought he was saying that the bands themselves were athiets. i had just woken up, no coffee, so sorry.
FML.
