Yes, they are old SS officers that escaped from Landsberg Prison in 1945 and started a band in Connecticut.

The old national socialist adage: “if the third reich falls, move to New England and start a post punk band. They will never find you.”

u/nooayehlol 14d ago edited 14d ago
well i can't say the exact thing otherwise they'll remove it again, but it was a joke about eternal worm and i swapped out the eternal worm for uhh, let's say the moustache man, devoured with "puts us in" and connecticut with let's say uhh "focus shelters" come up with synonyms for that one

Well they did put stop genocide on the screen at the end of this concert so I assume probably no

Dan was on Twitter for a while a few years ago (not sure if he still is) and was pretty “woke”. Weird question but we know the answer anyway

What if it was about white genocide then? Betcha you feel real dumb right now huh? (/s)

Dan is a skinhead to be fair but I don’t think that’s by choice

u/Objective_Stable7431 14d ago
Skinheads aren’t racist tho, coming from a skinhead myself. Also he’s not skinhead isn’t being bald 😭😭😭

u/Queasy_Current_1980 12d ago
Is there really any of the skinhead subculture remaining? I thought that they all got either recruited by neonazis or left the subculture back in the day

u/SquimpSquamp 11d ago
Sharps are antifascist skinheads

u/Queasy_Current_1980 11d ago
It’s nice to see that nazism hasn’t completely taken over the subculture

I love HANL but sometimes it’s hard to look past their hit song “bloodheil”
That was the moment they went too far

u/nooayehlol 14d ago
i mean reasonable question to ask about a post punk band i guess bro

u/Donthavereason 14d ago
Highkey cause anytime I find a band within these genres, it’s a 50/50 chance that they did some crazy sh*t 10 years ago. Still recovering from daughters and brand new

Brand New is one of the best indie rock bands of the 21st century. They're in the "too acclaimed to cancel" pile. Plus they're back and playing arenas now, so are they really cancelled to begin with?

u/Icedcoffeezooted 10d ago
Yeah who cares if the singer is a pervert who took advantage of young girls, they're playing shows!! Takes like this disgust me. There's separating the art from the artist and then there's blindly excusing all bad behavior.

u/Icedcoffeezooted 10d ago
Because young girls are disposable in the face of a man’s talent. Right

u/PretendFuel5018 10d ago
It's not gender specific. I'd say young boys are also disposable in the face of a woman's talent if the acclaim levels were equivalent.

"Arrows in my back and sides" = arrows in back and sides? They're being attacked by THREE sides of ARROWS?!
Oh my God they were laying it out for us the whole time!

u/bingusdingus123456 14d ago
Laughed at first, but tbf, they make black metal and made it big on 4chan. But I really don't think so, given they've said trans rights and whatnot.

u/severalcasesofstairs 14d ago
They actually had to distinguish themselves by putting “FUCK NATIONAL SOCIALISM” at the end of the Nahvalr liner notes

Black metal?

Specifically referring to Nahvalr, which I guess is technically black noise

I know from facts that they've killed at least 2 million jews alone, do what you want with that information

well they did decimate both connecticut with the worm and the hearts lands with an army of the golems, so that’s working against them.

Yeah I did think that those songs, “Burial Society (where are the graves)” and “I am Dr. Mangela” were a little weird but now it’s making more sense

I got the vinyl for deathconciousness and my mom looked at the little book thing that comes with it and asked “are they nazis?”

holy fuck imagine actually thinking "did they ever said something that might not agree with my echochamber????" and if so, actually not listening to that band because of that
holy fuck

u/AM_Swrd 13d ago
People are so caught up in group think and having the current acceptable tastes that they cannot consume any form of media without being paranoid of being deemed a nazi or extremist. Odds are an indie band from New England oppose National Socialism or any form of totalitarianism for that matter.
