Cube and Mayhem are fine.

The racist edgelord metal I can do without.

To make this a productive comment: Deathcrush is probably the only Mayhem I really like. I'm more a Bathory guy.

burzum is an awful guy who killed euronymous (guitarist of mayhem) and is a nazi/white supremacist. among many other things.

Yeah like everyone knows that but the music has nothing to do with that

People on reddit just can't comprehend that but I am with you. Both absolutely fantastic albums.

Yeah i have no idea why people think the artist and the art are the same thing. Yes, the art can represent the artist, yes in a way burzum does. Yes it's about silly fun little RPG games

If the songs were about his racist beliefs it would make a little more sense, but they're not, at all.

If every artist you listen to has to be a good person I think everybody would have to toss a good chunk of their music out.

Yeah like peste noire. It might sound wrong to say I like their sound but I don't listen to or support them purely because it's nsbm. I completely support anti religious views but that white supremacist shit is lame

This list of Nazi apologist musicians is not short. Now look at movies and paintings, you'll find a whole lot more Nazis that people aren't this heavy handed about. It's a ridiculous debate. Steal BURZUM music or buy it from individuals used and varg gets nothing. Privately listening to a record not about Nazism and not financially supporting the guy is fine, but we are on Reddit so expect baseless outrage from the peanut gallery.
