Indeed, also what I find the most amusing is that there was hardly any talk about Mikko Aspa before this album was released ( only some ), for instance, I don't remember much talk about him around the time of Paracletus or Synarchy. Suddenly, the ignorant people claim the album is fascist or NSBM based on the lyrics and album title and suddenly everyone jumps on the hate bandwagon.
Sure Mikko may be a fascist and whatever else, but the band states that he doesn't write the lyrics.

This album would have to riff harder to justify those kind of comments

"the band states that he doesn't write the lyrics"
"That band also states that they strongly disagree with his political views"
That's beside the point. Reserving judgement on fascist associations with the band as whole until I hear this and comb through the lyrics (they have benefit of doubt meanwhile, all things considered), but I'm just surprised no-one seems to be struck by how utterly self-absorbed their defence seems to be.

That's because we're some cynical mfs who've we've seen much worse.

People are really fucking weird. They react to that interview like this guy is some snob for reading philosophy, or how he speaks. They once again interpret him negatively, just like they did the record's intent. I remember a few people here claiming the band were Neo-nazis and were aligned with Mikko Aspa politically. I remember saying that this wasn't the case. I feel somewhat vindicated now. I will be awaiting apologies from various user on this topic.

The interview is worth discussing. It isn't ''fucking up'' the thread. It is meant to be an addition to the album. It is vital to understand and dissect that interview to understand the album. To disregard the interview shows a willful ignorance and I don't appreciate being told I'm some kind of nazi for liking this band. Especially when those people won't even bother reading into the band's artistic intent like I have.
Seriously though, I was joking about the apologies.

Dude, I thought the interview was weird but immediately said once they announced it was complementary to the album...I kinda get the archaic vocab and the round speech, avoiding going straight to the point...I often alerted ppl to check your rev for a different perspective...I got pissed at the bangertv rev...I even went further checking this Bataille dude as a far left one but anti Marx. There s some other hard accusations that should be more seriously explained though...I just decided for myself to forget all about that for now and continue digging this...

They released an in depth interview which they never do of course it should be discussed. Its being discussed elsewhere as is Mikkos role. Id rather read peoples opinions on this than 20 comments that say.
'Shit rulez'
'[2]'
Not fucking up the thread at all. It makes a rare interesting one
