Gaahl is more intelligent, strong, spiritual and in touch with himself than any of those people bashing him because of his sexuality ever will be.

Thank you Gaahl, for proving that gay people can still be FUCKING BRUTAL.

@AshKetchum442 14 лет назад

I think it's fucking rad that Gaahl is gay. It really destroys the sterotype of gay men, and the fact that he hospitialized a dude at Wacken because of homophobic remarks is badass. Stay Kvlt

"Someone's insanity grabbed hold of me" is the most damn beautiful thing I've heard in a very long time :)

Yes!! Hopefully more like this man come out! I'm sick of the gay stereotypes and Gaahl is not one bit matching any gay stereotype. I'm bi and some people think I'm lying because I'm not a fashion expert or wear pink or whatever. Congrats for coming out my fellow headbanger! We need more like you :)

"Equality is the worst thing in the world. GAAHL goes to show you that human life is complex & sexuality is NOT the totality of who or what someone is. I think he is BRILLIANT, & a Pioneer of individuality ...this deserves massive respect

+Steven Tuckey I think he is more talking about equilibrium - hence the reference to stagnation. Not equality in the sense that we associate with discussions of sexuality.

@overgrownkudzu 7 лет назад

He doesn't speak in political terms, more in a "doing the same thing over and over" sense of equality.

@GamersPhYsIcSPyro 6 лет назад

Steve Tuckey most of the scene speak in a poetic way. Half the shit he and others say is metaphorical

@GamersPhYsIcSPyro 6 лет назад

Steve Tuckey though listening again he is right. Equality prevents anyone from gaining an upper hand- an eternal position of solitude that freezes any chance of hope, so to speak

@sonicthehedgegod 15 лет назад

I love how this is a big deal. He never really was "in the closet", he just never talked about sex or love. I'm sure if you asked him about this ten years ago he would give you the same response. Gaahl (I'm neither gay, nor satanists) is one of my heroes.

@michaelangeloh.5383 Год назад

It's just that people still think in the heterosexual norm, so to speak, and when they "find out" someone isn't, their minds go "Wait, you're WHAT?!", as if it's a big deal. - But even in the last decade plus since your comment, people started caring less and less. - When someone "comes out" nowadays intentionally, either people go "OK, good for you." or congratulate them. - Of course people who have an issue with it will show their disgust, but so much has changed in just 10-15 years. - You see these celebrities come out as like... gay, bisexual, or trans, or gender-neutral, and it has happened so much that it's more like a marketing-stunt at this point and people just don't care anymore. - Probably even in the so-called Metal-scene it's like... k, whatever. - We've always had Rob Halford anyway...

@crosshat5931 10 лет назад

Definitely appreciated Gaahl's refreshing perspectives. He had quite enjoyable responses, with an effortless straightforward sort of feeling. Also his personal outlooks (or realizations?) made by Gaahl, both on the world around him, as well as his own self seem so intelligently well-established, they come across as almost unconscious reclamation. Gaahls could right a novel.. "The Precursor to the Destruction of 'Giving a Shit" and Reclaiming The Power of Self Realization; On Finding Satan in We and Blackened Metal." -- note; if anyone is complaining about this interview's gay theme, Please Note; Blame the straight people that keep having gay babies.

@ProstituteCorpse 13 лет назад

I love how all the "gay doesn't belong here" "you're a poser" and all other narrow minded comments, not online online, but IRL as well. If somebody is gay, or dresses in a non typical "hardrock attire" (Black metal long sleeve shirts must be one of the ugliest piece of garment ever) why would you care? Listening to what you like and dress as you want is true if something. Being straight and dress in "hardrock attire" just because it's how people think it should be, that's being a poser.

Windir: uses inventive and unique chord progressions while sucessfully implementing the harmonic minor scale to achieve maximum emotional effect. overlays these musical concepts with inventive harmonies and melodies that wind in and out of each other, creating a holistic overall atmosphere that seems cohesive.

On top of that, all of us are not made to do a lot of things. We're not made to use a machine to entertain ourselves; we're not even made to entertain ourselves at all. The point that I've been trying to get across this whole time is that it doesn't matter if it's natural or unnatural, because we do unnatural things all the time, and don't think twice about it.

As for the definition of marriage, no one can agree on who defined it, no one can agree on the definition itself, so anyone can just say that their definition is the right one and be considered correct by some people and not others. Either way, I don't see why we can't change a definition, no one argued this much when other definitions were changed to fit modern dialogue.

@Deka1184 14 лет назад

@owlandtree If you think black metal is simple music with lots of distortion played very loud I invite you to check out Arcturus, Vintersorg, Windir, or Cor Scorpii. Many black metal bands easily reach levels of compositional complexity equivalent to classical music. It also usually carries some sort of profound message, which varies from band to band, album to album, or song to song.

Guy sounds like an alright guy, everyone seems to tip toe around him like hes going to stun them or bury them down with "YOU FOOL" type comments, when all ive seen from the guy is just a genuine liking for pretty much everyone he speaks too or who will atleast chat with him - he seems very fascinated with people and seems to see the beautiful side of people. And also lol at people hating music because of specific sexuality - you wouldnt have alot of heavy metal if it wasnt for judas priest..

He was accused of assaulting and torturing a man for six hours while collecting his blood into a cup and threatening to make him drink it.[2] The victim received a total of 190,000 NOK (32,424 US$).[4] Gaahl maintains that he was acting in self-defence, claiming that: I was the one who was attacked, but they think I punished him too hard. As I always say, when people cross my line ... then I will be the one to decide what their punishment will be.[9] got to love wikipedia

And for the "gay people can't raise kids" argument, I've seen multiple cases of that being the opposite. Time has an article on a study that shows how a lesbian couple or even a single lesbian parent can raise mentally healthy kids, and I saw an article of another study by a professor at Stanford university showing how a gay couple can raise children to be just as smart as a straight couple. I'd give you the links, but youtube won't let me.

i very much agree. gaahl seems conflicted. i gather that he went to black metal because its the closest community he felt he fit into, but unfortunately communities tend to be prejudice against their own kind if they display any attributes that don't fit the mold. social survival is something people get very anxious about because they feel that if they don't fit somewhere then they aren't useful. i echo what you said - collectivism sucks.

Its interesting that each time Gaahl appears in a interview or something else ever people discusse so fiercely. Why angry ? I wonder if people elsewhere punch each other because of this as they did years ago because of the burzum/mayhem affair (i saw that happening once in 1997,in a pub, even they were two kids, but it was freaking odd) .

@Yeahhhh444 13 лет назад

Im straight but this guy has been dubbed the most feared/hated man in Norway by fighting the most tyrannical, and outlandish religion that's out there by burning churches and torturing those who try to harm him, while being the front man in a successful black metal band. Awesome? I think so. Bottom line is that Gaahl is the fucking man even while fucking men and not me or any of you have his passion, integrity, and the balls to do all that he's done in his life. And he's a wonderful artist too.

It's not that hard to understand, my viking friend. He likes men the way you like women. It's as simple as that. He likes men the same way that heterosexual women like men. It's as simple as that. You know what would be weak? Acting differently than he is. He is keeping true to his real self, and I can only applaud him for that. The fact that you are ridiculing him only shows you have a minimal capability to put yourself in the minds of others. Be a man, and accept this man for who he is.

@lvsitiwdr 14 лет назад

@Dimdez Well, this seems to be the same that happened long ago with the Burzum/Mayhem affair. Now its Gorgoroth/Gaahl/ Godseed, etc etc..i like to watch videos of bands, gigs, interviews, etc..and then i read the coments , especialy in Gorgoroth ones, people go angry with each other. I dont, i have more things to get angry, such the fact that i live in a high unemployment rant country and how its so hard to get a decent job. And without decent job, and decent money:no gigs, no music, no youtube.
