Quote from: Ron Ben Michael on August 30, 2010, 08:17:37 PMMetal Is there not a lot of patriotic Israeli heavy metal?
Good to see another JTF metalhead. I like, or have liked, material from Slipknot, Killswitch, Demon Hunter, ICP, Mushroomhead, Autumn to Ashes, Lamb of G-d, Poison the Well, Slayer, In Flames, and many others.
Did you understand Rammstein's lyrics?
I saw Pantera play a show with Metallica in the early 90s... I believe I saw the show at Dominguez Hills...I love the Israeli Heavy Metal band Amaseffer and their Slaves for Life album which is about the Exodus... The Burning Bush:
Rammstein are German and they are very anti-religious, so more likely than not they have Nazi sympathies, although I have not heard of them having any actual Nazi lyrics.
Not that it matters much, but I wasn't completely honest when I said I didn't understand the lyrics because I actually know some German. The truth is I realized I was not exactly comfortable with some of the lyrics, but I did not try to know more because I must confess I really liked the music. HOWEVER, had I found out anything Nazi in their lyrics, I would immediately have stopped listening to them, there is no question about that. Anything Nazi triggers unconditional and absolute hostility in me. I would go to Hell if that allowed me to shoot Nazis. As far as I know, there is nothing Nazi in Rammstein's lyrics, nor have I ever heard of Nazi sympathies of them.
