His vocals have always reminded me of the vocals on the first Die Kreuzen LP, so I'm down.

Good question. This is actually all one guy, and he takes pride in making Trve Norwegian Black Metal; however, I have read some criticism in the metal press about this record being too rock'n'roll and too riffy and therefore not black metal enough for them. I love the riffs and definitely hear some indie rock in the guitars.

IIRC, the review in MRR just repeated "THIS FUCKING RULES" over and over, and I have to agree with that assessment.

Nice, VS. Look at the shit storm I almost found myself in.
I always suspected something wasn't right about you.

Anyhow I won't stop listening to Taake. I like them and I'm convinced they're not Nazis.
I never liked Burzum from the beginning, so I don't really care what that dickhead does.

He apologized for doing so and explained that the point of it was to make the Germans uncomfortable and remind them of their shameful past. They DO have anti-Muslim lyrics, but also have anti-Christian lyrics. They are a fucking black metal band, being anti-religion is kind of part of the package. He wants to keep black metal evil, and who can blame him. The people protesting are SJWs who don't know WTF they're talking about.

The Trumpbullplex booking collective posted a statement on Facebook accusing members of Deathwish-signed North Carolina hardcore band Young And In The Way of sexual assault, and urging the Psycho Las Vegas and 71Grind IV festivals to drop YAITW from their lineups. A few hours after the post went live, Psycho Las Vegas dropped the band “due to recent developments.”
The statement also reads that Trumbellplex tried to get Taake (“both my ex and I are huge fans of Taake”) to reconsider their tour with YAITW in 2015, but that “Taake’s response was ‘We don’t care, keep this drama off the internet.'” Taake have been in the news this month, as they are getting shows cancelled due to Nazism and Islamophobia accusations.

We chased those guys away. Only us 'snowflakes' left around here.
