Hi, what are you looking for?

80s Hardcore

While You Hate, We CREATE! Fuck Racism in Metal!

Racism is never a joke…Phil Anselmo, you straight fucking played yourself in the eyes of so many, and CVLT Nation will never support you in any way or form.

I have been an active part of the underground music community since the early 80s, and I have never made the color of my skin an issue until today. In the 35 years that I’ve been going to shows, playing in bands and collecting and appreciating punk and metal music, I have seen musicians and fans of all colors, cultures and genders. When Meghan and I started CVLT Nation, we decided that at its foundation we would ignore all music with a racist and sexist agenda. We weren’t going to get on a soapbox about it, it just wasn’t going to make it on the pages of this webzine. We would get angry in private, and publicly we would erase racism in metal from existence.

But we’re not going to lie about the music and cultures we admire. We post about hip hop, we post about Nina Simone and black biker gangs, and when we can’t stop ourselves we post about police brutality in the black community. And every.single.time. we have to deal with some maggotty racist scum bubbling up to the surface to tell us to stop with our “black propaganda” or to tell us how superior the white race is. We just delete, delete, delete. And move on. Because of two things: 1. Anyone who espouses the belief that the 0.01% of their DNA that determines their external appearance makes them genetically superior to another human being is a fucking fool and astoundingly ignorant; and 2. Because these ignorant cretins could never convince us that we should not listen to this music, love and support this music and above all lose our self-respect and love for each other and our family and friends because of something so insignificant as race. In the past, we’ve been told that if we don’t condone racist ideologies in metal, then we shouldn’t be running this site, because extreme music holds extreme views. In our opinion, racism is not “extreme,” it’s ignorant, dumb and worthless. So to those people, we say “fuck you” and move on.

 

 

For anyone who doesn’t already know: CVLT Nation is run by an interracial couple with three awesome biracial kids that we love with all of our hearts. Our 4.5 year old and 2 year old daughters have more metal running through their veins than most of our readers. I doubt even Phil Anselmo can claim that as an infant his favorite music was fast and heavy. When I heard Phil say “White Power,” it hit home, because it meant not only he does not think I should be a part of this community that I’ve dedicated my life to, but also that my children should not exist and I should not be married to my best friend. I know that we have some readers that might agree with his statements, or be apologetic for them, and to those people I say this: it’s your right to read our site, and thanks for the hits and for helping us feed our family, but just know that this site is run by the people you think you HATE, and by people who you think have no right to have a say about this music and this community.

It’s time for us all to take a stand against feeble-minded people like Phil Anselmo and all who think that what he was saying was a joke!

 

 

If calling Anselmo out for holding beliefs that show zero respect for us and our family and friends – including musicians whose talent makes Anslemo look like he’s got his thumbs up his ass – makes us Social Justice Warriors, then so be it. I would would rather be that then a racist piece of shit who has ass-backward views and can’t think for themselves. I have family members who were raped and lynched, but even if I didn’t, I couldn’t be silent about this, because if I don’t speak up I might as well be down with Phil. Honestly, I find it ironic that Phil makes money off of reworking blues riffs, but hates the people who created them. It doesn’t get much more ignorant than that.

Much respect to everyone online and in the real world who are brave enough to speak out against racism in Metal. Phil Anselmo’s idiotic actions may have inspired this discussion, but we have to acknowledge that this problem runs deeper than just one person in the industry, and should be addressed more often. To all of our racist, sexist, xenophobic or homophobic readers out there in cyberspace: please unlike us, because we don’t fucking like you! While you hate, we CREATE!

    I support you in everything you have said in this article. I will probably never listen to a Phil Anselmo album again. However, I do have an issue with why you speak up about his. I have read articles on this site were you support artists who have said or sung about much worse… such as supporting child prostitution and pedophilia. Why turn a blind eye to these issues and speak out about racism. Which is worse?

    -209 for my previous comment = 209 beta vaginas who have no place listening to metal due to the fact that they must have everything in life censored so that their fragile feelings don’t get hurt. This is thrash we are dealing with though, and thrashtards have always been the emasculated crybabies of heavy metal.
    PC is censorship, and censorship is most certainly not Kvlt (Cvltnation got it wrong). So if you cuckboys want to whine because something hurt your feelz and you want to pander and brown-nose to non-white demographics because Huffpost or Cosmo magazine told you that its trendy, then go listen to something less offensive and more socially acceptable, like that Top 40 Kidzbop garbage.
    Now go ahead, ye spineless cuckwads, and vote this comment down too. All that does is show me how many posers we have among us. Still don’t think you’re a poser? Remember: Metal is the music of adversary and rebellion. Those who upset the system are always few in number, and people like myself do exactly that. You, who disagree with me, and the few others like me who upset your hivemind mentality, are the system. You are the majority. nearly everyone agrees with you. You echo the propaganda of almost every western government, and that makes you the system. The fact that you listen to metal at all is, therefore, quite redundant.

    “The other day, someone asked me what I think of Kerry King from SLAYER always trashing MACHINE HEAD and me,” Flynn stated. “You want to know what I think? I think the guy’s a jerk. I think the guy’s a lard ass. I think the guy’s eaten so many cheeseburgers lately his brain is starting to clog up, and he can’t think straight anymore. And, I think it’s really hard to get offended when the guy who’s talking trash about you looks like RIGHT SAID FRED with a beard, and wears ass-less leather chaps. I mean, c’mon!? The guy wears ass-less leather chaps!!!? Where I live in San Francisco, that’d be Kerry Queen. Make no mistake about it, I am a huge SLAYER fan. Not a Kerry fan. But hell,.. The way I look at it, I take pleasure in knowing that by doing absolutely nothing, we can be such a source of irritation to one man.”

    Thanks for this. I live in Brazil, 33 years old, listening to metal music since I was a kid, and something that always bothered me was: which one of these guys are racists, neonazi, or something? It kind of tear my heart appart to know that someone like Phil Anselmo, that could be an example of chemical and personal overcoming ofr millions of kids out there, acted like this while drunk.
    PS: Why not make a selection of notorious racists/neonazi in Rock/Metal, so we can be aware of what’s going on ? 😉
    Tks for the article

    Thanks for posting this. I love how people are trying to defend this by making stupid “What about first amendment? What about not being PC?” comments. You can say whatever you want, yes, but then we don’t need to support you. Fuck off, Phil.

    I’ve been an avid reader for three years, and I’ve never left a comment. But I want to now to say that I stand in solidarity with you, Sean, and all anti-racists in the metal/punk/underground communities. I’m glad you spoke to this, and did so loudly. Anyone who thinks racism has a place in metal or punk needs to get out of the scene: all of this culture started as a reaction to mass culture, of which racism is a part. True punks and metal heads know this, and they don’t support fascism and racism in any form. Of course there have been bands in these scenes that have touted racist flags, and the real scene stands up to them and calls them on their bullshit. Anselmo is a tool. Burzum is a tool. NSBM is a bunch of bands who are also tools. Thank you for this. I appreciate it, and have only become a bigger fan of CVLT Nation. If you’re saying that there’s no room in metal for PC, get out of the scene. You have no idea of its history, and we don’t want you here. Go vote for Trump and wear a Polo shirt instead.

    To quote an old hardcore band from the ’80s, Brotherhood: “we’re dedicated to stop your ignorance/ we’ll band together to bring you to your knees/ for your actions, we have no tolerance/ blind hate, prejudice, a disease.”

    Right on. Love this quote “In our opinion, racism is not “extreme,” it’s ignorant, dumb and worthless.” I said the same thing yesterday over at Metal Sucks. Racism is just plain old fashion ignorance, ain’t nothing edgy about it.

    This was an amazing article. I’m impressed by everyone’s openness to hold those accountable for the hate mongering views… This is the only genra of muisic (which I thoroughly love) that is filled with so much hate. It’s one thing to let emotions drive your creativity but why taint music with your hate.

    i get confused when people insist that they’re being iconoclasts by taking a stand against supposed “pc fags,” cuz my understanding is that racism is just the norm in this society? it’s business as fuckin usual: police shootings, mass incarceration, deportations, displacement, community divestment etc etc etc. for folks who love to talk about how much they hate, i don’t get why they keeping fighting to uphold these tired moral values.

    Lemme just say my 2 cents. I am a minority at metal shows. I am a big hairy Indian chef. I’m wrong in about 90% of the places I go. But I have never experienced anyone being racists towards me or any other minorities at any show I have been to. But then again I have been lucky like that my whole life. Metal fans are a brotherhood (meant in the most universal sense of the word) where we can all be ourselves and release our demons and hopefully gain some friends. I say all of this because I agree wholeheartedly with Sean, there is no place for racism in our culture. Racism and PC are truly 2 sides of the same bullshit coin. But to say that we need some of that safe space shit and for calling people out for being overt or even covert racists is even more bullshit. This is not a college frat or sorority that is based on inclusion through exclusion. If you love the music, and feel the music, we love you. And because we love you, we will call you out on your shit and make you rethink it.

    One good thing about Anselmos douchebaggery is that its kick started a conversation about tolerance of racism in metal. Its heartening to see so many reject racism – and good that we use the opportunity to speak out. Fuck racism …. fuck it right in the ear. 👍

    Anselmo is a dick granted. But trying to censor someone because they don’t agree with you is you being no different than the Nazis. It’s bs and I think censorship has no place in metal. No matter what the reason

    racist are monkeys. Sorry, monkey are more intelligent and friendly. So racist are…let say….roaches. Just something you crush with your shoes because it is ugly and it stinks. Furthermore, in music, racism is just sewer full of shit. Those persons, for me have no name and no face and are just diarrhea.

    It’s funny how people can’t see some things as countercultural symbols. Satanism has an aesthetical conception in music. Satan never seems like an opressive figure, as racism.
    There’s something related with rebellion, be different, follow another path. Racism doesn’t express this, just shows that you are an idiot.
    Very nice text, as usual.

  31. Ryan Jones

    January 30, 2016 at 10:04 am

    Thank you for sharing. I used to listen to Pantera, had no idea about Phil’s racist beliefs. I will no longer support him in any way and will tell my friends what an ignorant goon he is.

What Really Matters To Me Is Your Music Because I Really Love And I Will Not Leave The Listen Because Of What Happened (I Know That No One Told Me To Stop Listening Creature, I Just Wanted To Say, Ok? 😎 ) And I Just Think We Should Separate Things And I Also See The Positive Side (I Said “ME” If You Don’t, I Don’t Care! 😀 )… So, This Is My Opinion! Have A Nice Day 🙂

    Now, the next thing everyone should be asking is why hasn’t Dave Grohl condemned Anselmo? After all, Rob Flynn has. But Grohl, who was there as well, has been quiet about it. Is Grohl a dickwad like Anselmo?

    If you can’t handle the fascism and satanism you need to get the fuck on.

    This shit has never been about shiny happy bullshit and popular opinions.

    Those elemnts are present to keep pussies with sticks up their asses the hell out.

    Doesn’t matter how many vegan faggots you squeeze into a distorted guitar band it still won’t make it metal.

    Taking all the fashion elements and visuals and mixing them with a femenist agenda doesn’t make you anything but a goddamn poser.

    We don’t want or need you here. Take your posing asses back to Hot Topic.

    We can’t wait until all of you fashion rocking shitbags so concerned with judging everything finally offend yourselves the fuck out of our culture.

    You aren’t metal and never will be. You don’t have a sense of humor and the fascism and satanism checks your Ned Flanders asses at the fucking door.

    …no surprise that you are a bunch of fucking posers; cheers to you for “coming out” about it;

    Now take your fucking hormone pills and go bitch somewhere else.

      You’re a monkey in term of brain functions tho i should apologize to actual monkeys to say so. You’re stuck into a nightmare and didn’t probly noticed what happened around you in the past 20 years just be aware you’re a disgrace to the scene you think you are part of, there’s no space for your shit, deal with it, people like you are a crumble of dried shit on the butthole of history.

      So you don’t think that Phil should have apologised? So why did he? If he apologises, does that make him a poser, or a sell out? He said “You should be offended”, so why weren’t you?

    Here’s a bit for the “White pride isn’t racist! If they can have black pride, what’s the difference?” contingent:

    “Black pride” does not mean “black supremacy”. The movement did not come about from black people trying to claim mastery. “Black pride” is a reaction to and a rejection of centuries of being told dark skin makes them inferior, and is a source of shame. “White pride” stands for enforcing and maintaining that tired status quo. “White pride” is born from fear of equality, which means their formerly exclusive privileges now apply to all.

    Further, metal would not exist at all without black musicians. Metal comes from rock and roll, which, in turn, comes from the blues. Black blues musicians were regularly suspected of having made pacts with Satan – which is, indisputably, metal as all fuck – long before Ozzy Osbourne’s parents had even met. Remember when Kristian Vikernes tried to distance himself from influence by black blues musicians? He claimed Burzum’s metal was based on (white) classical, rather than rock/blues, like other metal bands.

    Phil Anselmo has a long history of espousing ignorant views, as well as (in my opinion) making weak and dull music. Possibly, this particular incident was meant as a “joke”. From someone with no previous record of endorsing NS/WP ideas, I’d say let it go as a bad joke. This guy, though, is a fuck. Pantera embraced their reputation as redneck favorites. The “heritage, not hate” campaign was an apologist farce. Look at the “heritage” they were celebrating, after all.

    If you think “guilty of being white” is about white pride they what they say about racism is true! IT MAKES YOU DUMB ASS FUCK! That song is about growing in and around DC and being label a racist as kids by black folks in the area! It’s a response seeing that NO I’m not racist because of the color of my skin! It says, just because I’m white doesn’t mean I’m racist! RACISM MAKES YOU STUPID!

    If this idiot would’ve tried this BS at the Outhouse in Lawrence back in the early 90s when we were at the shows, he would’ve caught a mud hole stomping, the fuck outta here! I saw fools hospitalized for talking that white power mess. The true Hardcore scene has no respect for racism, and we had zero tolerance, even true skinheads are non racist and would always beat down the few racist boneheads and expel them with force. The Metal scene needs to clean house. Anselmo did the Seig Heil, but he got a “placa” tattoo on his stomach, in curved letters, copying off the Mexicans style lol.

    I agree 100% with this article–I think though, that *in my opinion* it’s not just “biological racism” that is prevalent in metal communities (it’s not always just about that “0.01% of their DNA that determines their external appearance”). In my experience, there’s a “sneakier” (sneakier bc it’s not always professed by ppl who would openly call themselves white supremacists) type of racism which I would call “cultural racism” where extremely ignorant ppl think that bc they’ve misread like two paragraphs of a bad Nietzsche translation or bc they cant think for themselves and will be perpetually holding on tight to Varg’s balls that there are “cultures” that can be quantified as “superior” to others and that there are also ppl who embody these monolithic and often ignorant constructions of culture who are also the agents of some sort of “cultural decay » (9/10 times ppl from Muslim-majority countries bc « Islam is for slaves » or smthg–at least here in Europe~). So these are the ppl who get all hysterical and burst a hemorrhoid if you call them a “white supremacist” bc they think white supremacist = eugenicist or Grand Wizard of the KKK or 15 y/o white-boy in the deeps of midwest america blogging castles and quotes from the eddas and blondes frolicking in fields bc #whiteculture. They also think certain « non-white »/« non-western »/”marginally European”&c ppl get the #bad-ass or #sofuckingmetal certification bc they vaguely remind them of Easterlings or are supposedly inherently « savage » or contributed unintentionally to some sort of cosmic esotericism and quack metaphysics espoused by a metal band. I think it would be interesting in general to look at how racism works in different genres of metal bc I see this “cultural racism” as very much there among black metal fans bc much of black metal depends on a construction of “Judaeo-Christian” (whatever that means) culture as the ~enemy~.

    This was necessary. I was trying to find that article on biker gangs with a lot of pictures, including those with the girls wearing the ‘property of’ on their jackets, but couldn’t anymore. Did I see it in some other site? Was it here and you people deleted it? If so, good for you. It deeply antagonized your decision not to post about sexist agendas. I found that post repulsive and disturbing, in the way it glamorized mysoginy. Same way I feel when there’s promotion of a band or people with racist views. I don’t care what music they make. One has to stand her/his ground. That’s the only way to be.

    “In case you need a brushup on history, white men aren’t oppressed by black people here in America.” You presuming piece of shit. How dare you speak for every person defined as a “white man”. You don’t have a clue whether or not they were oppressed or not because you do not and can not know. Sure, the phrase(s)”white power/white pride” is sophomoric and silly, but only as knuckleheaded and doofusy as “black power/black pride”. Race don’t mean shit and that goes for white, black, green, whatever. And as far as “history” goes, it’s dead and buried everytime someone opens their mouth. So you wanna create? Fucking create and bring in something new instead of rehashing the same old shit.

    I really don’t think Phil is racist in the sense that he hates anyone based on color or race or anything like that. Come on, he grew up in new Orleans. I think he’s just proud of being white. It’s not a crime in itself. Hell, I’m proud of being white, I hope black people are proud of being black and so on. It doesn’t mean that there is hate behind it. I never did and never will judge people based on their ethnicity, race or color. I will, however, judge them upon attitude. And that’s all from me.

      January 29, 2016 at 11:35 pm

      Steve Ferrell you’re deaf or I mean can’t read, I said what he said to Rob backstage about how he hates his nigger days, basically calling Rob a nigger, yes, I would have knocked him the fuck out. Again, what he did onstage does not bother me.

    • Steve Ferrell

      January 29, 2016 at 11:44 pm

      Rob is just mad cause Phil said he didn’t like his rap crap albums.

    • Dustin Leos

      January 29, 2016 at 11:46 pm

      If he said he didn’t like his rap crap albums, then it’s an opinion. But when he uses the word nigger, and singles out a group of people(black people) That is a problem. Do you understand?

    • Steve Ferrell

      January 29, 2016 at 11:58 pm

      I absolutely understand. But Robs not black. Neither is anybody else in Machine Head. I think the whole thing is being blown way out of proportion. I’m not a racist! But I’ve said the word nigger before. It’s probably not the best word to use when describing Machine Heads crap albums. It’s about intention and purpose. If Phil said the word nigger with the intent of hating someone for being a certain skin color then it was fuckin wrong. But just saying the word nigger doesn’t make you a racists no more than saying the word God makes you a Baptist. I just don’t think that Phil’s intent was to single out and hate someone for being black. But I dunno, maybe he was?

    • Dustin Leos

      January 30, 2016 at 12:07 am

Like if I call you a “Mexican Jew motherfucker you” just playing around out having a drink at a metal show. My intent wouldn’t of been of hatred for you, Jews or Mexicans.

If Phil was being a drunk asshole backstage saying racists Shit then Fuck him. Unless you were there then you have no clue what was said or what the intent was when saying it. If Phil said bigger with the intent of hating black people because they are black then he’s a racist piece of Shit!

      Is it a video of what happened backstage? Or is it a video of Rob giving you his version of what happened backstage? Nobody knows what happened backstage there unless you were there. People were drunk. People say stupid Shit when there drunk. Phil said he didn’t like Machine Heads music so much. That Pissed Rob off. Rob whines about Phil on some video.

    Its pretty stupid to even have an opinion on this. Anything anyone does now is racist, or homophobic or some other stupid shit. If you like black metal and buy it, you’re probably supporting someone who is egalitarian and therefore racist to some degree. If you support old school death metal and buy it you’re definitely supporting some racists, Obituary opens their set with fucking rebel stomp or whatever and no one cares. You’re all by definition being “bigots” for showing intolerance to Phil’s beliefs which in no way affects any of you. he isn’t going to bring in the 5th reich, and he probably isnt even an activist. keep stupid fucking non music news out of metal.

If I were to say something like, I could walk into a business alongside one person from each race, the best qualified person will receive the job. I would probably be called a racist asshole. Or if I said equality is NOT having racial quotas in the work place, I would probably also be considered a racist.

      http://www.blabbermouth.net/news/all-shall-perish-philip-anselmos-actions-are-a-stain-on-the-legacy-of-pantera/ this kind of perfectly sums up my thoughts on this. I’m not going to lie and say I’m not going to listen to Pantera, Down, or Super Joint Ritual because their lead singer is apparently a racist because that doesn’t change how awesome the artwork that the bands have come together to make. I can’t lie and say that the vocal majority (note, not the actual majority, just the majority of the loud assholes) at metal shows I have been to in the past weren’t racist (Ramos Roman can definitely add some insight here given our trip to mayhem fest where some dude called him by the n word literally on the walk into the place), but I can honestly say that it is definitely becoming a more diverse crowd at the shows I’ve been to. There are more minorities at shows every time I go, and even more people that will actually pipe up and call people out for racist actions which is definitely a plus. I don’t think there’s a place in any aspect of the world for legitimate racism, and if this was anything but a joke like he tried to imply it was (said he was drinking white wine and it was a joke about that, when video shows he was not drinking that, but lemon svedka) then I definitely just lost a lot of respect for one of my favorite vocalists

    There’s no such thing like “im metal so i can say whatever the fuck i want, even yelling white power and make the nazi salute”. No you’re just a piece of shit. And by the way, who the fuck cares anymore of “whats metal or not”. Wake up for christ sake, 80’s are over. A band can be more extreme simply doing punk or something heavy not marked as metal. Enough with the etiquettes.

    Thanks for this. I find it utterly ridiculous that even metal journalist who condemn him still say how hard it is because they know him, it could hurt their careers, etc. He has been a blunt minded racist for a long time and let’s just be honest: most of us realized Pantera sucked once we got out of middle school and discovered better music. So, thanks for this righteously angry, uncompromising response.

    I think it’s okay for metalheads to criticize our own scene and we should work like hell to get rid of this shit. Unilaterally: fuck racism. — But when people from outside metal criticize metal I get really pissed. It’s like, this isn’t for you, it can be for you if you want it to be, but as it stands, you don’t know shit about me, you don’t know shit about black metal or doom metal, so fuck off back to Tumblr for a while and let me get back to things I give a shit about.

      Criticism is one thing.

      Hoards of professional victims jumping on the grenade for no reason isn’t at all CONSTRUCTIVE.

      I see the racism underlying Phil’s persona, but It’s not in the lyrics as far as I’ve heard. I don’t align myself with him or emulate any artist really, because that’s some teeny bopper shit. He’s a big dumb idiot with a killer, iconic voice.

      I guess my point is that Superjoint Ritual’s “Use Once and Destroy” is fucking phenomenal and Phil’s a meathead.

  147. Nathan Glover

    January 29, 2016 at 5:26 pm

    Metal is complicated, it contains a wide range of viewpoints that all manage to fit into the genre despite often being contradictory. Too often people wheel out the “metal is white, racist, sexist, homophobic” and point to examples like Burzum etc and yeah it is all of that but it is also progressive, multicultural, environmentalist, feminist and pro lgbti as well and you could equally point to bands like Judas Priest, Napalm Death and Melechesh as examples. Thats precisely why it works and what is actually the best thing about it – theres no overriding viewpoint. Theres a clash and that clash creates discourse and the freedom to speak and also for those concepts to be explored rather than swept under the rug. Metal is reactionary from all angles of the spectrum.

    So yeah sure, i’d love to see racism, sexism gone etc but only by rational discussion and persuasion of argument rather than suppression and censorship. I would rather face the fact that things i don’t like exist rather then paper over them for my own comfort, echo chambers are often more dangerous than a conflict of ideas.

    With regards to the Anselmo incident, it may have been an inside joke but since I wasn’t there its impossible to know. With inside jokes though you need to make sure everyone is in on the joke for it to be funny. Clearly not the case since someone felt it needed to be shown to the general public. At face value he’s guilty of telling a joke that fell flat. If it wasn’t a play on white wine then theres something more sinister there.

    Is he racist? Maybe, seems like he has enough interaction and good relationships with people of different colours and cultures to suggest he isn’t or at least not maliciously so but then again its not the first time he’s said something with a racial connotation so theres at least an element of it at play.

    I’m not sure if “I don’t know, probably a little but not really” is an acceptable answer in an age of black/white reductionism, sloganeering and public hysteria but its probably the most accurate.

    • Bec Bjoykgdit

      January 29, 2016 at 8:50 pm

      Yes why? If you are referring to typically being opposed to change then no that is not the meaning i am utilising. I mean in the sense that it is oppositional to traditional structures and viewpoints for better or for worse.

    • Nathan Glover

      January 30, 2016 at 4:00 am

    There’s plenty of room for anti-racist views in metal. In fact, I think it’s pretty goddam metal to say Fuck You to the people who piss you off. And the people in my home town who grab their baseball bats and guns when they hear that there have been Nazi’s spotted in town are a lot more metal than some pathetic basement dweller who smiles and nods along to shit they know is wrong.

    • Amanda Eurynomos Kizar

      And no, to me metal isn’t about negativity and anger. To me it is strength and passion more than it is either of those things. People who don’t listen to metal think its about negativity. Metal doesn’t make me feel negative, its makes me feel positive, or why would I listen to it? I’m not a masochist.

    • Amanda Eurynomos Kizar

      January 30, 2016 at 4:09 am

      Exactly, people can feel how they want about music. Artists can portray whayever message they want. It can be positive or it can be negative or even racist. When people WHINE about an artists message they are just showing how lame they are. And I don’t get why people care so much about band members’ personal beliefs anyway.

    • Kate Ward

      January 30, 2016 at 4:19 am

      They don’t care about one mans personal beliefs, they care about racism, wherever it may come from. Sure, Phil has the right to state his opinion (hate speech is not free speech mind you), but others also have the same right to tell Phil they don’t agree with that opinion. Someone disagreeing with you does not make them “butthurt”. And you know if Phil doesn’t want to be called a racist he shouldn’t be racist. He made his bed, he can lie in it. You don’t get to be an arsehole and expect no consequences.

    • Amanda Eurynomos Kizar

      January 30, 2016 at 4:29 am

      How is hate speech not free speech? I recommend you rethink that one.
      This is not about consequences. This is about sensitive people reacting stupidly and predictably. I suspect it’s a publicity stunt.

    • Kate Ward

      January 30, 2016 at 4:39 am

      Yes, correct. “Hate Speech”, as in the dictionary definition, the illegal kind: “Speech that offends, threatens, or insults groups, based on race, color, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, disability, or other traits.”
      Not hate speech as in I hate onions and child molesters and the colour red.
      If hate speech were free speech it would be legal to insite violence. But its not. Thank god. Rethinking that? No thanks.

    • Amanda Eurynomos Kizar

      January 30, 2016 at 4:52 am

      Why would you support a law like that, knowing that definition? It is a violation of rights (and also impossible) to restrict and control people’s speech and thoughts.
      And I am afraid IT MUST be legal to incite violence. We could never declare war and the military couldn’t work if it wasn’t.

Next time you have some sort of beef with an artist, do say so and stop shielding your libel with your love for music. Cheers.

    I love the irony that all the racist/fascist metal heads keep saying that if you complain about Phils behaviour (or racist behaviour in general, you are somehow “whiny” or a “crybaby” when the reality is that they are the biggest crybabies of all, whining about their precious freedom of speech being eroded.

    • Alun Beard

      January 29, 2016 at 4:34 pm

      Their freedom of speech isn’t being eroded, that’s the thing. It’s just that they’re being called out as the bigoted shitlords they are, and they don’t like it…

      As others have pointed out, freedom of speech means that Anselmo can’t get arrested for what he said. It doesn’t mean the rest of us can’t or shouldn’t tell him he’s an asshole.

  185. Manuel Hernandez

    January 29, 2016 at 4:09 pm

    I’ve never liked Anselmo or Pantera. Anselmo has always been a jackass, always saying stupid shit. Everyone commenting that we all are making a big deal about this have obviously never been affected by racism. Racism is still going on so it is not an exaggeration being sensitive to comments made Anselmo and others.

    • Arneus Ogeath

      January 29, 2016 at 4:38 pm

      they can because not all black metal bands are racist idiots? There is no controversy in saying that a type of human is musically more interesting, and in saying that that superiority is not bound by race. Yes Black Metal promotes the idea that men are not created equal. But goddamn open your eyes to amazing people born by all the races.

    • Rachel Riley

      January 29, 2016 at 7:09 pm

      I was never saying that I agreed with Anselmo. I was just pointing out the fact that CVLT Nation is not as extreme or welcoming to dissenting opinions as they claim to be.

    • Bec Bjoykgdit

      Do you mean to say that black metal is inherently racist? I’m not really getting your point. I’ve never seen them cover NSBM bands.

    • Rachel Riley

      January 29, 2016 at 10:47 pm

      I would say that by modern and apparently CVLT Nation’s standards, the ideologies expressed by many of the original Black Metal bands would be considered racist.

  192. Tony Bambony

    January 29, 2016 at 3:59 pm

    Everyone jumping down his throat. I personally don’t agree with referencing Nazis. But objectively speaking, why is it wrong for a white guy to be proud of being white? Any other culture stands up and is proud of who they are, black power, Muslim, natives, etc people are like k cool. There has been many black entertainers who say they only hire black people or speak to blacks. Nobody bats an eye.

    Just a view from the other side of the coin. We have become a society of witch hunters. Someone voices an opinion, WITCH HUNT!!!. Where growing up 80s, 90s if you knew someone with different views you were like k, that’s just them and moved on. Now it’s witch hunts everywhere on social media

    • Alun Beard

      January 29, 2016 at 4:14 pm

      “White Power” has specific, racist connotations. Personally, I find it hard to understand being “proud” about the colour of your skin. You can be proud of a culture, yes. But that centres on the actions and achievements of that culture. And “white power” achievements are, specifically, centuries of exploitation and slavery.

    • KC Halimak

      January 29, 2016 at 4:33 pm

      No, in the 80s & 90s people weren’t just ‘k’ & moved on.
      Punks & metal heads would FIGHT skinheads & racist fucks who showed up to gigs. It’s become more tolerated in the last 15 years than it ever was before.

    • KC Halimak

      January 29, 2016 at 4:34 pm

      Also, when you are part of a marginalized group who is not included in the ‘mainstream’, yes you will hire your own or contribute to your own community first.

    • Tony Bambony

      January 29, 2016 at 4:34 pm

      Metal head, punks, skinheads weren’t about racism. Punkts notoriously spit on bands to show their support, skinheads were just major pricks in the pits, metal heads liked to brawl. They picked a side and battled it out. We haven’t really become more tolerant, still witch hunt just less brawling

    • Tjalling Jn

      January 29, 2016 at 4:45 pm

      With any negative connotation omitted, there would be nothing wrong with taking pride in anything you indentify yourself with (I cannot fathom how something you were just “born with” makes you proud, but a la), but being inbred trailerpark-trash wouldn’t be my first choice if I could pick something to wear as a badge of office..

    • KC Halimak

      January 29, 2016 at 5:05 pm

      Well Tony, in LA/So. Cal where I grew up, there were issues of racists coming to shows (especially in Orange County) & you’d have metal heads, punks & crusties beating the shit out of them. It used to be a badge of honor to kick those asshole out of the scene but now it’s ‘why can’t people take a joke?’ ‘it’s only music, who cares? ‘

  193. Jay Bentley

    January 29, 2016 at 3:57 pm

    so phil loses some followers and probably gains a couple, but the bottom line here is simple, won’t be tolerated and therefore “never supported in any way or form”, which i applaud. that’s what happens. choose your own adventure from this point forward.

I hate nazism & racism, especially when it comes to metal. I am able to unsee it once it comes to the musical product, but I would boycot the artist by not seeing them live or buying their shit. Then again, I am dissapointed Phil… Deeply dissapointed…

You are a neanderthal competing against a computer hacker. You are the virus that we will flush out the system. And hey if you really wanna prove you aint the pussy chicken shit cock smoker I believe you are, next time I tour or do a show in Portland (which Ive performed there before) come out & we can square up & run a fair one like men.

      Evan Vice Gripp Brysman just nerdishly picking up on the irony of the analogy. A neanderthal would out compete a computer hacker in the ‘real’ (natural) world. Just not in the fictional realm of computers (which only exists due to the combined efforts of millions of people over time). Sorry but just pisses me off people still use the neanderthal tag as a term for a degenerate. They were amazing humans most very probably greater than us 1 v 1! Their brains were bigger on average than modern humans. Our only advantage was cooperation in large social groups hence we have computers neanderthals didnt….we are also most likely what caused their demise 30,000 years or so ago.

    Keep that racist bullshit out of metal. we’re supposed to be a community that thrives on attracting people who want to express themselves and feel a sense of commradery with their fellow headbangers. Phil and his actions send one message: “black or brown? NOT FUCKING WELCOME” which is the most un-metal thing next to a duet with Taylor Swift. Save that shit for Vaarg and his loser Aryan fanclub. We let this shit slide in the 90s when Pantera ruled the world, now he’s a washed up old racist playing to 30 people. He’s right where he belongs, in obscurity.

      I don’t believe he met it , People who whole heartening like that wouldn’t retract it. Hate is just primordial hate is a instinct. People say there’s white supremecy there’s only green supremecy. Theoretically an idea of white power would be great, thousands of years of in fighting has been put aside one step closer to world peace but it doesn’t work that way. We as humans divide ourselves with enthicity, nationalism, regionalism, religion , secularism, class, and gender. Why producing hate creates unity anoust a group a common enemy. Also humans a naturally curious species uses organization like that to help know the world. But who benefits off this hate? The ones who rule and fool you.

      I see where you’re coming from, but I spot a difference, since Brujeria was an obvious image band, they play these mexican druglord roles. And it’s not equal to the role let’s say some black metallers plays on stage and in interviews, since that image is still related to the same person. In Brujeria, everyone knows that Chapo Gringo Gonzalez or whatever they named themselves is obviously Dino Cazares. Accusing them of racism would be like accusing Edward Norton of being a racist because of what he’s done in American History X.

      Phil is a colossal piece of shit. He literally fucking yelled “White Power” and has done so countless times in the past. Fuck your racist apologeticism. People can still be racist and be in photos with another race. Ever heard the “I’m not X, I have plenty of Y friends” rhetoric? Or “It’s okay, they’re some of the good ones!”?

      Exactly. No excuses.

      I gave up on a killer drummer recently because he was racist. I’ve known the dude since highschool. Killer hands… but then he’d say some shit and all I could think about was the inevitable online blowup and shitstorm when he opens his mouth in public. I just watched a friend in NJ’s band quite literally evaporate after some dude got stomped at their show. A new album, a world tour… CANCELLED.

      So I decided to skip the bullshit entirely.

      It’s primordial. It’s a tatic to strengthen your group because then you got a common goal. White power would be a great thing meaning all people of European decent have set there difrences aside that’s one set closer to world peace. However there isn’t a whole “White supremecy” the green supremecy realizes its easier to exploit people when dived….. There’s basic ethnics , nationalism ,regionalism ,religion ,secularism, classism. They say hates learned no its a thing humans can’t help and the ones who rule and fool us now how to exploit it.

White privilege in full effect here. it is serious and all my friends and aquiantices are that are not WHITE and are fans are not ebjoying this at all, how would you feel if a idol you look up to turns out to promote your extinction, not good. not funny, not in #2016.

      You act like the organic inevitabilities of multiculturalism had to be manufactured, as if throughout all history, division was only ever caused by dictated blind intolerance. The elite…jesus wept.

      Look, I don’t support this particular action but you’ve got no chance if you’re trying to tell me it’s more acceptable to be racist, that division is publicised more than tolerance and understanding, that altruism doesn’t permeate the very core of modern western establishments. If you truly believe that then we’re wasting our time here.
