Euronymous - Might Be Honored By Norwegian Airline

According to The Guardian, a Norwegian airline is extremely close to using legendary black metal musician Euronymous (Øystein Aarseth) on the tail fins of one of their jumbo jet planes.

To celebrate its 10th anniversary, the carrier is asking passengers to vote on a new set of heroes for their aircraft's tailfins. Voters can take part by voting for which ever notable Norwegian figure they like - as long as they are dead - and the one with biggest boost will get to adorn the extremities of an aircraft in the fleet of Norwegian Airlines. You can place your votes here. Euronymous was killed by his bandmate Varg Vikernes in August 1993.

After being put forward by a local nominating committee, the Mayhem co-founder has collected the highest share of votes, leading over Trond André Bolle, a soldier who died in 2010, and the Lutheran reformist Hans Nielsen Hauge. The contest closes today, March 28th.

And Dani Filth was an option. Obviously everyone voted for him for the lulz but the organizers cancelled the votes. I remember that and have same thought's about this.

This is awesome though! If I remember correctly Norway's biggest export is black metal CDs. So it's only fitting that a Norwegian "hero" would be a black metal musician. ---- "Wise men talk because they have something to say; fools because they have to say something." Loading...
