I've felt so sad when I found this.
There is a lot of background behind Anselmo's attitude and words, full of death, sadness, suffering. It's not what the term exactly means or whatever, it's what it represents, and I don't think that this act can be justified for any reason. Don't waste time discussing about the language, terms, and whatever! We don't need the language to understand and feel what's happening here. I believe that musicians who stand on stage have responsibility and those who use it to foment bad things don't have my support. I support this:  -------------------- My lessons

It's always eye opening when we find out our 'heroes' are mortal.
Most of them are ... in one way or another. -------------------- - Ken Lasaine

QUOTE (Sensible Jones @ Feb 4 2016, 06:54 PM)  HERE is his response to it.... He seems to take it more seriously now. Hopefully this will act as wake up call for him to get sober and start thinking about what kind of message he wants to convey to his fans. |

QUOTE (Kristofer Dahl @ Feb 4 2016, 03:35 PM) I don't get how this makes him mortal? Stupid would be a better word. Everybody's got 'something' that's fucked up about them. That other's don't approve of or that goes against the grain of society, culture and general good manners, etc. We tend to venerate artists, entrepreneurs, scientists, athletes ... like they are gods. Then they show that they are fallible (human) and we yank them down (usually with glee). *What Anselmo said was pretty fucked up ... and I seriously doubt it has anything to do with his indulgences. Those just loosened him up. But like I say, everybody's got something going on in there. Here's what shocks me about the whole thing ... That folks are shocked that a guy like Anselmo may have an Aryan Nation leaning or two. Read his lyrics (they're not overtly racist but they're pretty dark and aggressive). It's like when people are appalled when a football player or boxer is accused of spousal abuse. Well, we train them to be that way from a young age and reward them for being good at it. WTF do you expect? I'm a Jew and I own two Fords. Miles Davis beat the crap out of all his wives and girlfriends but I still listen to him everyday. Phil Anselmo is a neanderthal bigot but Pantera was a really bitchin' band. Etc., etc., etc. This post has been edited by klasaine: Feb 5 2016, 04:52 AM -------------------- - Ken Lasaine
