Memes. For metal music.

Don't be an ass and try to keep the gatekeeping and whatnot to a minimum. Memes from all sorts of metal genres and bands are welcome here.

Other news outlets have elected to couch coverage of the incident in conciliatory language, talking about what Anselmo “appears to” have said, and “appears to” have done, as if, perhaps, we cannot be trusted to verify the evidence presented before our eyes and ears. Let’s be clear: on the evening of January 22 one of the most respected and iconic vocalists in our world stood onstage in Los Angeles and delivered a Nazi salute and shouted a white supremacist slogan. Those are the cold, hard facts, let’s not pretend otherwise.

Huge respect to this writer. If only major news outlets had the courage to speak the truth like them.

Was about to send this to our editor but this article was written in 2016.

Did they stop being Nazis after 2016?

He apologized, but....

Only because he was called out directly.
