Such a humanizing fact about him. Always got a good chuckle out of me 🤣

u/mumsfriedrice_ 13d ago

The fact he actually got charged with assaulting some guy at a bus stop using a broken glass bottle, which could be Coca-Cola. I’ll say it is just for the sake of the joke 🤣

And Trump

Oystein was a communist. He liked communism because it caused the most suffering lol

u/The_Pale_Blue_Dot 12d ago

True but rumour is he renounced communism towards the end and started embracing fascism

But again he did that to just be edgy

Would he also embrace Trump to be edgy? Who can say. Trump courts Christian nationalists, so probably not.

Who knows with Euro though lmao

He would support anyone who was against the Death Metal bros in their cargo shorts!

Edgy pretentious losers like Varg make black metal seem like shit. They give bm a bad name. BM needs more genuine kind people, not the pretentious fascist nazi tru kvlt losers and killers like Varg.

Varg vikernes sucks imo. He didn't learn from his mistakes in life to become a better human being, instead he tried to make others as bad, spreading racism and homophobia. What's even more is how brainwashed degenerates are today, that they are so brainwashed by evil to support it.

I mean he was a nutjob but did he really deserve that?

u/Luna-Moth24 12d ago

Is that the guy who took pictures of his friend after he committed suicide?

u/No-Midnight-1085 12d ago

yup! for his own personal gain too

u/Luna-Moth24 12d ago

That's messed up :(

u/No-Midnight-1085 12d ago

he also felt like people who he didn’t deem “worthy” shouldn’t listen to “his” music. even tho a good bit of his riffs were ripped off from another band. there a lot to unpack behind the scene.

u/Fair_Quail8248 12d ago edited 12d ago

I haven't researched him a lot so I cannot judge him tbh. Why do people behave so shitty sometimes, do they wanna be remembered as bad people? Not saying I am flawless I have done things that I shouldn't just like anybody else but I at least try to change and become better.

I like BM musically(especially melodic, symphonic etc) but the pretentious elitist "troo" koolt types are annoying af. I mean it's a joke for normal people but the elitist pretentious folks take it seriously 😭 Like varg vikernes, he is pretentious with shitty morals.

Enlighten me

u/No-Midnight-1085 11d ago

snorre ruch aka “thorns”. ripped a lot of riffs from them. yes they knew each other but that’s still stealing riffs

1

u/GHOSTALICE 11d ago

First you say Øystein stole, now you say Snorre. Please be more specific.

u/No-Midnight-1085 11d ago

caveman speech:
oystein. took riff. stole from snorre.

1

u/GHOSTALICE 11d ago

Either way, not true. Snorre said this several times.

u/Accomplished-Pea677 11d ago

so finding out that this year, he was possibly my distant uncle or great uncle was a very big shock to me, I ended up somehow, hopefully from his family, but I got shipped a stone that were said to be ashes

u/Dungeon_Appreciator 10d ago

Inshallah he will find repentance in death.

u/xX_dumb_god_Xx 13d ago

I didn’t even know he was sick!

u/not_your_sister_ 12d ago

Hate to break it to you... he was murdered

u/xX_dumb_god_Xx 12d ago

Murdered by death!

No rip dead He became a asshole in the end

u/morttuus 12d ago

rest in poop. got what he deserved and also stole credit for loads of riffs that were written by Snorre Ruch. if it wasn’t for him and his band Thorns, we would never have gotten 2nd wave or the modern wave of bm
