I respect them because they work their asses off and don’t take themselves ultra seriously but yeah. Their best tracks are like 7/10 worthy. I want to like them more because they’re one of the only notable metal bands to emerge from Michigan (Brian Eschbach went to my high school) but the music just isn’t that good.

This really, although I'd probably give a small handful of songs like an 8 (blackest incarnation, what a horrible night, a couple others)... but they are a fun band with cool dudes and that makes me kinda overlook their abject mediocrity

Dagon posted this to the Inquisition facebook page:

"To all fans, supporters and close ones, I would like to clarify some horrific misinformation generated by the webzine Metalsuck of a personal matter f mine in 2007: First you must take into account, everything Metalsucks published is taken from court documents that state charges and accusations rather than what was proven or admitted in 2007. Second, I never plead guilty to the charges and the original charges were dropped after the courts examined all evidence. I am not a sex offender, and I was absolutely innocent of all charges. The plea bargain was something the prosecutor insisted on and for the defense was the best option to end a lengthy legal process. Also, the background check webpage circulating is not entirely correct, it is definitely not showing what the Police background check would show you.

With my fullest respect to you, please read my statement Metalsucks had told me they would publish:

I made a very unwise choice of actions in 2007 which got me into some legal problems. After the investigation was conducted, a year and a half later after the initial charges, the original charges brought against me were dropped and a plea deal was presented to me. The investigation determined I did not have anything that fell under the original charge.

The police report suggested I had deleted and obstructed evidence which I deny to have done, however the obstruction charge was still part of the plea deal as was the other charge mentioned in this article. That second charge is related to viewing pornography in a public area, and again was taken as part of the plea deal. To be clear, I have no sex crimes, this did not involve any other person other than myself and I have moved forward since 2009 while having complied with all aspects of the law.

I wish to remain focused on my music and my absolute dedication to the art of Black Metal. Despite any personal views and judgements the followers and supporters of our music may have, I am a somewhat private person and have never cared for destructive sensationalism and keeping what I feel is private, private.

I hope my level of transparency is understood and I thank you, as always for having been so supportive of Inquisition.

With much respect to you,
Dagon"

Oct 10, 2004

I still don't know how I feel about all this, but in order to prove that he pled guilty to some of the charges, Metalsucks posted the guilty plea he signed in which he clearly states that he is only doing so as part of a plea bargain ("I...choose to plead guilty to a related lesser charge ... that was not committed in order that I can take advantage of the plea bargain and avoid the risk of conviction for a greater offense."), so that part of his story checks out at least.

e: on the other hand, they also posted portions of the police report which clearly describe them finding child pornography on his computer so yeah. Unless they fabricated that for some bizarre reason, pretty sure he's guilty.

If my research (of 3 seconds or so) is correct sticking trans in front of anything makes it either okay or invisible to them. Like they're half-baked social vampires and the word trans in an invitation to enter your home.

What trans Nazis, bigots, and pedophiles would be beyond people who really love Jews, homosexuals, gypsies, tolerance, and sex with adults is bewildering to me but it would appear that affixing the trans label to something gives it great power at least to these SJW types.

Am I the only one that feels the Decapitated statement is kinda hosed up?

Doesn't it seen just a leetle inappropriate to spout off about knee jerk Internet people, thanking your lawyers, and very publicly counter punching after something like that?

I mean sure, reactionary blog posts and shrill sensationalism is definitely a thing no matter which side of the issue you fall on, but poo poo, it's never been denied that she was actually on the bus, right?

That response left a real bad taste in my mouth and I'm just spit balling here, but I think they have real good lawyers, and probably dodged a huge legal bullet.

I'm pretty sure the band admitted the girl was on the bus and slept with at least 2 members of the band. The problem seemed to be unfortunately the alleged victim had a very bad past with law enforcement that made her pretty unreliable.

As far as I can tell Nordvrede aren't NS but on individual track videos from this album there's plenty of nazis pretending they are just because the album cover is an old painting of a white dude, which is pretty funny.

If that's the case, I'm, if not glad exactly, at least tentatively relieved that this wasn't a miscarriage of justice. I didn't closely follow the case though, either. But I've always kinda liked them as a band, even in their current state believe it or not. So, you know, nobody wants to see artists they like acting scummy. It's a classic debate that probably doesn't need to be litigated here,but I have a tough time separating art and artist if the acts are particularly unsettling.

I get what you're saying. The only "appropriate" venue for them to address this was in a court of law, which it was. Any commentary outside of that is going to be viewed in the context of hyper-awareness about harassment directed at women and won't be received well. So yeah, not sure what they're expecting the reaction to this to be.

If they had to release a statement at all (I would have recommended they just shut up about the whole thing), it should have been a short statement to thank those who supported them and that's it.

Time will tell if they hold to their statement about continuing on as Decapitated, but I think at this point the best thing to do is disband.

Yep. Metal musicians are some classy motherfuckers, amiright?

Considering their history and all the turmoil there, I somehow doubt the sole original member has any interest in hanging it up though.

Yes I was absolutely, completely, serious about trans-Nazis, trans-bigots, and trans-pedophiles. Because those are totally things. Would it help you figure out if I was serious if I had squeezed in a crack about how much these people seem to love organic chemistry? Because I figured trans-Nazis was a pretty good giveaway that I wasn't serious. Which I very clearly was.

Although Andromeda replaced him with the most milquetoast prog metal singer imaginable, I still think The Final Extension is a far easier album to listen to than the original Extension of the Wish. I'm not very familiar with Darkane, but that guy's singing in Andromeda, while certainly unique, is silly to the point of being distracting. Some of the songs, like The Words Unspoken, really sound like they're using joke outtakes for the vocals: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lI11CiET3I&t=88s
