@Metren: I feel similarly. It's a fantastic composition but the last time I listened to it I started hearing the lyrics in a different way. Now there are some Iced Earth songs that just draw me back to Schaffer's ideology and
Varg is and will forever be a major dingus, but yes, his writings and videos were both hilarious simply for the sake of morbid curiosity if nothing else
His actions have also re-contextualized Iced Earth’s Gettysburg Trilogy. I used to love that song when I could still think it was about the horrors of war.
Jon Schaffer was spreading conspiracy bs, including dangerous medical misinformation before the January 6 Capitol Attack. He was never cool in my eyes after that.
This band's profile is 'invisible', meaning that it's much less prominent on the site - either because it's incomplete, or maybe doesn't entirely fit MS format.
