you're welcome hahaa :laughing: .It would be so weird to see them in person, I don't know if I hold a conversation with someone in corpse paint. but of course, they just adorn it at shows.

Yeah, I just can't see a conversation going too well with them...

Anyone mention Sun Ra yet?

I'm pretty sure.

He wasn't really controversial so much as insane. I mean there've been people claiming to be deities before but none that thought they came from another planet.

Great musician though, completely revitalized free jazz.

I listened to a couple really long songs from one of his albums. It was virtually the same experiance as turning your head when an old sci-fi movie is being played.

I felt queasy after, and it gave me a headache.

Did you watch it?
I thought it was one of the worst interviews I've ever seen.
The guy is a messed up Satanist criminal,
and I still liked him a hell of a lot more than those douchebag interviewers, who went ito the mountains with no jackets and nike freakin high tops.

Actually I just finished watching it and I don't think he's THAT messed up. I think the people around him bugged him a lot and he just took it one step too far. I think on stage he is messed up and sometimes he has way to extreme thoughts... but listening to the interview he was actually an interesting person, not a good one per say, but interesting and surprisingly intelligent for a black metal lead singer. Oh, and his art was good.
Not my kind of music though...

Oh, and yes the reporters were pansies.

Haha .. Great opening from that documentary. They say Gaahl is the most despised man in Norway. Only a very small minority here knows who he is at all .. :p

If any black metaller can claim that, it's Varg Vikernes.

Agreed.
