NOTE: There are two bands called misotheist. This review is about the antifascist blackened thrash misotheist, not the Norwegian black metal misotheist.
"Irrationalism also depends on the cult of action for action's sake.
Action being beautiful in itself, must be taken before, or without, any
previous reflection. Thinking is a form of emasculation. Therefore
culture is suspect insofar as it is identified with critical attitudes.
Distrust of the intellectual world has always been a symptom of
Ur-Fascism, from Goering's alleged statement ('When I hear talk of
culture I reach for my gun') to the frequent use of expressions such as
'degenerate intellectuals,' 'eggheads,' 'effete snobs,' 'universities
are a nest of reds.' The official Fascist intellectuals were mainly
engaged in attacking modern cultural and the liberal intelligentsia for
having betrayed traditional values."
- Umberto Eco, "Ur-Fascism" June 22, 1995
Self described as "Harsh and relentless Blackened Thrash Metal about Anarchism, killing God, killing fascists, death, dying, and being dead."
I am always happy when there is a new Misotheist album (or single). The metal scene needs as many kicks in the face as it takes to rattle all the little fascist chicklets loose.
