The interview was in regards to the church burnings executed by Varg Vikernes in Norway. I think it was Varg. When he spoke about it he (Tom Araya) was saying that although one might have disagreements on what is holy and right, there's always things that are wrong to do. Now I'm not saying that burning down a church is wrong or right. I can one hundred percent understand why anyone would do something like that. I have had my share of disagreements with the christian church and I value my cultural heritage just as much as any other Scandinavian metalhead does. I wouldn't do it though because I think most churches are really beautiful and beauty precedes destruction. OnT: The way I interpret what Tom Araya said was not in regards to the church burnings at all now that I think about it. My point with quoting him was to state my opinion on what I feel about religion. Religion is something personal and that is that. What is wrong and what is right; That's what it all boils down to. The wrong thing to do is in my opinion to force your faith upon someone else. Or to steal the breath of another human being. That is also wrong. Everyone knows or should know that it is wrong to take the life of another human being. But... An action can't be divided into something as simple as "right" or "wrong" that is true. It simply depends on the exact situation and the influencing factors in combination with the purpose of the deed. For a system to work, like the system of society, rules have been created to keep the civilization from bursting at the seams. It would though, given the opportunity. They are dangerous and weaker; the ones who are willing to be controlled. As a leader I would define murder as wrong. But as a single individual, having no power over anyone but myself, I'm not so sure. If a person is forced to witness his family being raped then cut in pieces by a devout Christian - and it would be hard for the person to accept - he/she takes revenge on the culprit. I would not call it neither right nor wrong. I would call it natural.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to post something out of context but I really did now when I think about it. It feels like whatever I say from this point on will be thrown back into my face so I'll rather just delete the post.

For me it has been a tool for ventilating my feelings. It sounds really depressing to put it like that but when I've found myself alone in life with no one to turn to I have always been able to turn to the music. So I would definitely agree with swagmanoos. It's freedom.

Wow! That is one really cool guitar! Horns up

Haha, I stood there tugging her shirt like I wanted to get the heck out of there before something happened. Luckily the bulky guy's friends interfered when they noticed how he was close to hit a girl 10 years younger than him. Of course, much later, I was all heroic going "He's LUCKY they came along when they did..." brownie points scored.

When I looked around and clicked on a Motörhead CD; despair! [ATTACH=CONFIG]869[/ATTACH]

Queens of the stone age – Little Sister Haha, I was afraid my Nicki Minaj collection would make itself known

I went to see a Norwegian rap duo called Madcon. I enjoyed it. That is.. Until my friend started to pick a fight with a big bulky guy in a muscle shirt because he blocked my view (I didn't care THAT much)

Hopefully not for too long my friend \m/ the winds of change are upon us. Had to say that. Thanks for all the welcomes!

I want to go so badly!!! But I missed the release day of the tickets. I thought it was going to be this December but I read later that it was in August! So early. Dammit. I've never been to Hellfest but hearing you guys talk about it (and Wacken) makes me want to go so badly I hope Tickettauschbörse works...

Hi everyone! Found this site through Google and thought I’d sign up since I am a metalhead. I’m from Gothenburg, Sweden and I’m the lead guitarist of a thrash metal band there. Nothing major as of now but who knows right I’m currently enrolled in University for three years studying for a bachelor degree in Political Science and I’m bored because there are no metalheads here (not studying in Gothenburg). Everyone listens to Skrillex and local indie bands. I’m very open and can listen to most things but c’mon a little metal doesn’t hurt to incorporate into your everyday life right. Anyway that’s what I told them. No one listens though This forum might become my sanctuary, hehe. Looking forward to meeting some cool people!
