all the interviews and stuff i've heard/read with randy make him sound like a pretty sound guy and smart too, was really suprised when i heard this, surely it's some kind of misunderstanding?
also wrath wasn't amazing but had some quality tunes on it (contractor is a beast) and the three before that were top notch.
was involved in a wall of death at a LOG gig and fuck that is seriously intense/scary/painful

No, Dead was the singer and killed himself like 20 years ago, and Burzum (Varg Vikernes) killed the guitarist Euronymous allegedly in self defence, but he struck first. Pre-emptive self defence I guess. Quite a few of them burned down the churches, but only a couple of them admitted it, including Varg. He also escaped prison and went on the lam for a bit. He was released a while back though. He released a couple of albums from prison, and his latest one was out a couple of months ago called Umskiptar. More like his classic ambient/folk stuff.
Anyway, Throwing people off stage is stupid and he should be charged. They encourage crazy stuff like the wall of death, so they should accept the fact that kids are going to do that. I don't see much legitimate defence from him. I never liked the band anyway. Besides, circle pits are better.

Yeah it will boost sales, probably already has. Taking a cue from gangsta rap.
caught this a couple of years ago at the premiere in austin. Interesting little doc on Varg and his boys.

Yeah he's lucky he's only facing max 10 years. I'd say if convicted he'd serve 2 or 3.

Surely that has to go to Meshuggah/Dillinger Escape Plan? Liam from Dillinger is a fucking BEAST.

Forgot about Sikth totally. There first album still blows my head off these days.
That tour was next level. The London show was ridiculous and the Brighton one was nuts too. Got BARE lean with Liam after they played. lol Found this from the Brighton show. Shitty quality video which is a shame.

Best metal Drummer/bassist combo for me is Max and Noddy from Fell Silent.
