Then one day when I was older I discovered RIO BRAVO is actually a really good movie. That put me off my game for awhile, but I got over it. Jamming to Radioactive Chocolate right now. Don't have a problem with it either. I hated John Wayne for years because MDC said he was a Nazi and the Dead Kennedys made fun of cowboys.

I can make the whole album just about my holidays but in true everything is metaphorical and I the end the album talks about how I hate this and that kind of people. I know a lot of people who laugh at jokes about Jews and Afroamericans but so what? are they racist? I know that most of them (probably) aren't but whatever, I mean the world is not perfect. I somewhat understand your opinions but for me is concerning about bands ideological aspects complete bullshit. well one thing it's listening and one it's buying. but nevertheless how can you be sure that band is sincere in way of presenting itself to the public.

I used to be exactly the same way for many, many years, but in more recent times I've decided that I'm quite secure enough in my own beliefs to accept listening to bands whose members' "political" (for lack of a better term) views I don't agree with, as long as I buy the album (if it's still in print) from a label that I feel comfortable giving money to. Granted there are still only like two or three bands specific enough to have made me consider such decisions, but when it all comes down to it I listen to christian bands, satanic bands, krishna bands... all kinds of stuff that doesn't have anything to do with my personal beliefs, so... But I can understand where Jason's coming from, definitely. Nah, I can totally, totally understand that way of thinking.

I don't know why people are so bothering if somebody is in NSBM or playing "catholic" metal or whatever. Yeah yeah different opinions but fuck that. I just can't stand when people are crying about the this shit. For me the music it's the most important thing. What if somebody will somebody reveal that Beatles where all in KGB or something... I mean I hate when people are making barriers to themselves because somebody else someday said that that ain't good. fuck that.
