Show Notes
On this extremely casual weekend edition of Parallax Views, sometimes Antifada co-conspirator Alex Gendler joins us to discuss VICE Films' Lords of Chaos, a dark dramedy detailing the arsons, murders, and other acts of delinquency committed in the name of Satan by Norway's teenaged black metal scene in the 1990's. In addition we also discuss the film's director Jonas Akerlund and his connection to the metal genre, Mayhem's Euronymous as a precursor to tankie edgelords that worship Stalin, the insane neo-Nazi antics of Burzum's Varg Vikernes and his wacky racist Dungeon and Dragons knock-off RPG, the rise of the legitimately unsettling and serious National Social Black Metal (NSBM) scene in Eastern Europe and its connections to the Azov Battalion, the acoustic black metal parody Impaled Northern Moon Forest, and other black metal nerdiness along with much, much more!
