i agree!
it's always the same... no inside knowledge... take Black Metal for an example... every time it's descriped in the media it's always descriped as evil satanic music that spread messages about killing christians, even though it's only something like 20-30 % of all the bm bands that spread these messages, and even less that's spreading in the music itself (lyrics) etc etc... of course this is based on the norwigian mainstream bands... :? ..
they got it all wrong.. Black metal is not only about killing christians, it's also about worshipping goats, sacrificing nuns to the moon and running around in the forest with wooden swords and magic cards... at least that what's i'm doing every saturday night...
The worst thing is when you get "intellectuals" who have just read somewhere about Varg/Euro etc, and then buy DMDS, just so they can tell their freinds how edgy they are because: "Oooh the bassist killed the guitarist!". Then they all sit around having a good ironic laugh at those crazy metal kids...
