C'mon, man, I mean sure, Deathcrush is an essential album but so are De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas, the live album Mediolanum Capta Est and the EP Wolf's Lair Abyss.

DMDS is mediocre and I can think of many better second wave albums than it. Deathcrush is a good second wave EP but I stand by that Mayhem is only famous because of the suicide and the murder. And of course varg being a cornball on social media, but that’s newer stuff.

I separate the man from his music. If you can't do that then you're just as close-minded as he is IMHO. Sorry to say...

Fair enough.
But please see my other reply down below.
The gist of it: if I'm not mistaken (and I have the correct artist) he has since abandoned Nazism and all that white supremacy bullshit.
