could anybody explain to stupid ol' me what the fuck's all this about (i thought the singer of Korpiklaani is of Sami origin, so where's the logic that they could be nazis? or was that just a response on Graveland and Skyforger (and Burzum) listed?)? My faves anyway: 1. Cruachan: everything except Tuatha na Gael, 'cos i haven't heard it yet 2. Finntroll: everything 3. Korpiklaani: what i heard on the site 4. Otyg: Sagovindars Boning 5. Hagalaz' Runedance: Urd 6. Storm: don't know exactly what the record was named though, my copy is a pirate one, har, har, har 7. In Extremo: all the songs i heard, few although... ... what does 'mene muualle vammailemann' mean anyway?

Cheers from the Balkan woods (or where they end, actually)! Yep, i agree: it's a fucked up thing when you're white and want to re-access your people's tradition (completely erased by the church+state) and roots, and immediately being labeled a nazi... fuck that! Traditions aren't automatically racism! Just because politicians that share the same skin color with us have tried to wipe out and enslave everything not in accordance with their moronic views you can't just toss 'nazi-band' at everything that is labeled folk, uses nordic (slavic, celtic, etc.) mythology, ancient alphabets and so on, besides, what about Cruachan and Skyclad, if they're nazis, so was Bob Marley! Maybe you should eat less mushrooms, and start thinking things over when you say them!!! Ignorant bafoon! ...and about, 'i just like the music'; so what, i also like Burzum's musicanship and his usage of mythology, although don't like him personally for his narrow-minded views! I JUST LIKE THE MUSIC! Nobody wrote Skrewdriver here (although Graveland, Garmarna and Skyforger aren't far off , as i've been told) for crying out loud... and before labeling me as a viking wannabe: i've experienced war on a close range, fool, and i've no wish to seeing it again, nor the near-nazi shit leaders ruining this part of the world throughout the 90's (some still carry on though, sadly), but I AM PROUD OF MY 'PAGAN' TRADITIONS AND BELIEFS (except the idiotic ones, i admit that); how's this for your liberal bleeding heart (an ancient pagan proverb): "harming noone do what you will!" Nazi? I think not... the real biggot here is you 'mate'! And finnaly, my fave pagan/folk/viking bands around however (to keep to the letter of the post): 01. Cruachan 02. Katalena (local, not metal though) 03. Finntroll 04. Hagalaz' Runedance 05. Skyclad 06. AfroCeltSoundSystem (not metal, i know) 07. Storm 08. Balkanika 2000 (local, ain't metal either) 09. Otyg 10. Korpiklaani (my own CD is on it's way, yahoo!) sorry for filling up so much space, but some people just make me wanna rant, anyway, how do you say 'wood elf' in suomi?

Or maybe computers shouldn't have been given to zoo's ape sections. Don't lose your nerves, it's nothing but another little pioneer who plays thought police. The net is full of them. (although Graveland, Garmarna and Skyforger aren't far off , as i've been told) Wtf? Garmarna is a folk rock band, and so far as i know they haven't made any far-right statements (though personally i wouldn't give a rat's ass if they had). Who told you that? Wood elf is something like "metsänhaltija" in finnish (though it doesn't mean a wood elf in the tolkienic way, it's an old finnish term for somekind of 'spirit of the woods'). Oh, and the band doesn't hold any kind of collective political stand.

thanx for the info ;D i didn't mean it in a tolkienic way; hm, yes, i was told about Garmarna by a german black metal fan friend of mine... and he's from east germany, so i thought they'd know, with all the strange bands around... i don't really give a fuck either, it's their choice, and everyone's got the right to his/her own opinion... even idiots (like me (the sweet self-irony))

After a short googling session i'd say that surprize surprize, it's propably not that Garmarna is symphatizing nazis, but the nazis are symphatizing Garmarna (at least the world music sites wouldn't be encouraging people to check them out). So, just empty rumors again, nothing more. And about Skyforger: i've heard that there were a "no nazi stuff here" -sticker in their 'Latvian riflemen' album. So, when there's no change that a convinced nazi would ever do that, i guess they're just using the svastika among their other ancestral pagan symbols. Considering the current ideological relative strengths,... fuckin' wannabe vikings/pagan warlords-momma's boys! ...that's unmeasurably amounts braver thing to do than ranting anonymously to the (supposed) 'bad nazis' in the internet.

There's a "No nazi stuff here" - sticker in both[/b] Latviesu strelnieki (Latvian Riflemen) and Kauja pie Saules (The Battle of Saule) albums..

+ great samples folx, ought to get me one of these CDs! Hm, interesting forum this turned out to be, although a jerk started all the fuss... phew! but, my cautions are definitely up now regarding NS metal bands, so if anyone can name some of them, since i've no wish at all to support nazis... and really, just the ones you're 100% sure (or at least very suspicious) of; my top 5 list, anyway: Finntroll Shaman Cruachan Korpiklaani Skyclad merry imbolc everyone!

All the ELVES should be put into gas chambers. There isn't enough carrots to feed them anyway. Besides, they would never find fitting headphones or biker's helmets..
