I wonder how much of the "Satanic cult" angle is sensationalism and fiction from the Italian government and police, which they've been known to attribute murders to. (See: Amanda Knox)
Blut Aus Nord's Dishamonium is more than aesthetically related to Lovecraft; Three of the seven songs' titles are direct Lovecraft references ("Chants of the Deep Ones", "Keziah Mason", "The Apotheosis of the Unnamable").
You must love saying the beast of satan, you said it like 1000 times. Don't you think everybody knew who you were talking about when you said it the first 2-3 times? This is how kids explain things....
Tbh, the region that we today know as Italy was the cradle of satan worship. When Christianity was in it's infancy and rather unorganized in Europe you had a lot of these Gnostic cults where people actually prayed to Satan in for knowledge, economic, political, sexual desires. If you think about it it's not all that strange from a prior Roman's perspective. They had lived thousands of years as polytheists with different deities that you could turn to for different necessities. As some of these things, such as, knowledge, political, economical and sexuality were antithetic with "God", they turned to Satan, the other one that was really associated with these things. For them it was not really interpreted as sins in the way we think of them today. It wasn't until the Church became organized as a central pillar in society and started burning these people alive that people stopped doing it.
Satan just means 'adversary' in Hebrew. In the OG Bible, there are three satans. Characters not even important enough for a name. Much later, 'Satan' became an amalgam of many characters and deities of other cultures documented by the Hebrews. It was through mistranslation, intentional insidious retranslation/revision and conflation, and popular culture (plays, artwork, books) that 'Satan' became one individual or a deity at all, and the same goes for 'hell'.
"Satan" wasn't a thing in early Christianity. The gnostics didn't turn to "Satan", they still generally believed that Jesus was the savior but that the god of the old testament (demiurge) was either evil or stupid for creating the material world.
Earth is evil. Always was. People did pray to "evil" deities for gaining knowledge, good weather , power, etc.on all sides of the world. They did rituals, sacrifices or simply said - blood spilling and worshiping deities. There is no differerence between today's religion and ancient polytheistic deities. It's basicaly rewritten and highly politicized for easier manipulation and control of people. Since these religions were spread by wars (blood spilling) , the blood spilling continued through thousands of years of religious wars and it never stopped. In the meantime, people are still worshiping their fearmongering God(s) . People who are deep into this (no matter which religion they appear to practice) are seriously powerful but very rarely for good reasons although their religions are supposed to be pure and good. All big religions are 100% satanic.
i live really close from where these facts happened, matter of fact my father probably even met a couple of them because they went to the same bars/venues
I don't think that picture of the girl is Sapone, more likely a guy. I looked into it, all names of Nicola Sapone lead to pictures of a dude. It's either heavily censcored for her or the wrong person.
There's a documentary about it. Father of victim even reached out to Glen Benton and has seen some awesome festivals and bands. While certainly it's a tragic story for him It's kinda cool to see senior watching & meeting his son's heroes. I think it maybe helped him in some strange way to stay connected with his deceased son. Watch it, it's great documentary.
You've probably heard about the german Band Absurd, who killed a boy, for "being a poser", and later mocked him in their song "Werwolf". I remember long time ago, reading on some german metal forum that the rabbit hole goes deeper. There were rumors that one band member was sleeping with the wife of a pastor. Unfortunately I can't find those forums anymore.
That's not what the murder was about. Several members of Absurd kidnapped and killed a 15 year old boy because he knew that one of the members was having an affair and because they are cowards obviously. The murderer wasn't planned but accidental and it's also documented that one of these losers was crying fearing that he ruined his life that day.
@@Dawn95284 you're bringing back some memories with this. Now I remember in one of the Interviews I've seen on TV, someone mention the band members had a vicious disdain for Sandro, because he used to listen to "Goethes Erben". I still wonder what really went down, and what is a crafted defense story for a more lenient sentence
>Dismembered Pugachova and Evil Gnomes were two bands formed by the young Russian duo Artyom Anoufriev and Nikita Lytkin, who went to posterity for killing six people and record it on video, one of those videos was massively spread on the internet. Their first band (Evil Gnomes) was punk and second band (Dismembered Pugachova) was more oriented to Noisegrind/Noisecore. Excuse me if my English is bad, I wrote the text and translated it with Google, the band can be found in RU-vid as Расчленённая ПугачОва
@@necro.daemoness666 me and some buddies founded a band for a short time, and one of the names would translate as "Drowned in Menstrual Fluids". Fortunately we never got to release anything
This is a great video, but I have a few corrections / suggestions regarding the beginning of the video where you discuss the early influences. 1) I like how far back you went, but going back to American folk artists like Woody Guthrie and Bob Dylan isn't accurate. Neofolk's roots start with influence from European (primarily English & Celtic) folk music, not American. American folk music has obvious roots to different types of traditional European folk, but by the 1930's when Woody Guthrie gains popularity, it had already evolved to have its own distinct sound, both because it evolved in a different physical location (an important factor pre-Internet), and also because of the melting pot nature of the U.S. it was mixing influences from otherwise distinct European folk musics, and drawing from the folk traditions of other, non-European Americans. And while some American folk acts did have success and influence in the UK, it's not really reflected in the music that influenced or was produced by early neofolk artists. If you want to go back that far, a better starting point would be the English folk revival which started earlier, but mostly ran parallel, to the American revival - The English Folk Dance and Song Society; Ewan MacColl and A.L. Lloyd (who would both be great equivalents to Woody Guthrie); and later to the 1960's with groups like The Watersons and guitarists Bert Jansch, John Renbourn or Martin Carthy (any of whom could be the English correspondent to Dylan). But in terms of the specific influence on neofolk, most important from the later group is probably English traditional folk singer Shirley Collins, who was one of the biggest influences on David Tibet from Current 93. In current day where neofolk has been around for a couple of decades and expanded to include non-UK groups, I'm sure there are some who are drawing influence from American folk. But if we're going back to the roots of the genre, it starts in England with Current 93, Death In June and Sol Invictus and those three are drawing from European (again, mostly English & Celtic) folk influences. On a side note, the influences between the three bands are so similar because they were all close friends and sometimes roommates during that period of time, sharing and talking about music, etc. 2) Neofolk was influenced by psychedelic folk, not freak folk. The psychedelic folk movement started in the 1960's when the English and Celtic folk revivals collided with the psychedelic counter-culture. Freak folk originated in the 2000's and is a description of then current artists like Devendra Banhart, Joanna Newsom, Animal Collective, Espers, etc. I know sometimes even if a term is newer it sometimes gets retroactively applied to older music, which has happened with the ever evolving definitions of various metal sub-genres. But even if you broaden the freak folk term to include its earlier 1960's & 70's influences, it still doesn't fit right for one major reason. Freak folk was influenced by some of the same psychedelic folk that neofolk was influenced by (and also by some neofolk artists like Current 93), but a combination of record collecting / crate digging, later re-issues of long out of print records and music sharing on the internet gave freak folk musicians in the 2000's a much wider set of older psych folk influences than neofolk artists of the 1980's would even have had access to. A great example of this is Vashti Bunyan. She became a major influence on the 2000's freak folk movement, but almost certainly had no influence on neofolk (or any other 1980's artists) at all. "Just Another Diamond Day" album is excellent 70's psych folk, but it was widely unknown and unavailable when it released in 1970 and sold very, very few copies. It didn't gain wider exposure until it's much more widely distributed re-issues starting in 1999 but especially the major UK re-issue campaign in 2000. David Tibet was a music nerd, so it may be possible that he did hear it, but it's pretty unlikely. If he did, he didn't mention it and he is someone who discusses his influences at length. To be accurate on the roots on neofolk, you'd want to replace the mention of Vashti Bunyan with Shirley Collins. David Tibet spoke of her often in interviews and called her the biggest influence on him when he was making "Swastikas For Noddy". He was such a huge admirer that he tracked her down, called her and after quite a few phone calls eventually convinced her to come out of musical retirement in the early 1990's to guest with Current 93, starting with their classic 1992 album "Thunder Perfect Mind". He also released a collection of her recordings called "Fountain Of Snow", also in 1992, on his Durtro label. 3) Your mentions of Comus and The Wicker Man are spot on, but you should also place bigger emphasis on other early psych folk groups, especially The Incredible String Band, as well as Trees and COB (aka Clive's Original Band), all of whom David has mentioned as big influences on his turn towards folk music. The Incredible String Band are an interesting case, because they were actually quite a big band at the time, probably the biggest psych folk band - they even played Woodstock. They had a wide influence on the British music scene through the 1980's, but for some reason aren't as well known today (especially in the U.S.) despite having some excellent records and even films. 4) Then there is the English folk-rock movement, which was pretty significant in the 1960's & 70's, especially in the UK and Europe, and is sometimes even used interchangeably with bands considered psychedelic folk. Current day compilations of 1960's & 70's British and Celtic folk will usually have a mix of traditional folk, folk-rock and psychedelic folk. Fairport Convention (whose singer Sandy Denny did a duet with Robert Plant on Led Zeppelin's iconic "The Battle Of Evermore"), Pentangle (featuring the aforementioned guitarists Bert Jansch and John Renbourn), Steeleye Span (featuring the also aforementioned Martin Carthy) and The Albion Band (who initially formed to accompany Shirley Collins on her 1971 album "No Roses") were all major artists in that era and many are still performing today. They also eclipsed almost any band that we'd consider psych folk in popularity, except maybe The Incredible String Band. I can't imagine they weren't any influence on David Tibet, Douglas P. or Tony Wakeford when they turned towards folk. I hope this doesn't come off as too critical, I really appreciate your videos and look forward to more, I just wanted to clear up some misconceptions and avoid revisionist history :)
Hatred for Mankind is probably my favourite extreme metal album. So vicious and crushingly heavy. Serial killer samples are so well integrated and complement the sinister atmosphere perfectly.
Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band it's a masterpiece and The Two Sides of Patty Waters it's a Free Jazz great album (I'm not into this kind of Jazz but there are are great musicians in thsi record and it's a masterpiece in Free Jazz genre)...
Some people from creative circles started making music with a lot of noise elements which fascinated me and I've adapted the approach myself. The difference is only that I like the combo of traditional forms (although I think I'm very open to weird experimentation just for the hell of it.) So the noise music label didn't quite stick, so there's a big difference between what I'm interested in and Harsh Noise Wall, for example. Ever since hearing about industrial music in your, I guess, following video, that label clicked more. Either way, labels are just labels and I'm always happy to hear interesting overlaps between genres that don't seem to make sense on paper. I do think that in a completely purist sense, yes, Throbbing Gristle, Einstuerzende Neubaten are the pioneers and that history should not be overlooked, but IMHO those who came later had a better context and understanding of musicality, coming from the outside (counts for plenty of genres.) and that is where quality records start to emerge (in my experience). After some time the genres usually get so warped that they take on a life of their own.
Blood Axis shouldn't be on this list. It's an attempt that falls short due to lack of talent by the composer. Some of the soundscapes on the Blood Axis album are decent in spots but they are derivative and the vocals are really bad. On par with Radio Werewolf for cringe factor.
Sorry man. You may have the albums on vinyl but for me for you to claim that you are a Summoning Die Hard.... you are a Poser bro. You cant even remember the original drummer' name and CANT EVEN PRONOUNCE TRACK TITLES? NIGHTSHADE FORTRESS!!??!! seriously!!??!!
Could be wrong here. But apparently infant annihilators First album the palpable Leprosy of Pollution is considered cyber grind. Just something I heard once and never again could be wrong
