DEICIDE Kicked Off HELLFEST Due To French Grave Desecrations
- Mar. 21, 2006
|
|
|
According to the official Hellfest web site, DEICIDE have been dropped from this year's French festival bill due to circumstances very much out of their control. It seems that the events organizers got the jitters and bowed to local government pressure to have Glen Benton's satanic death metal outfit removed from the ironically named Hellfest after graves were desecrated in Nantes, France.
Here is the official Hellfest statement about DEICIDE:
"Because of what went on in Brittany during the last few months and this cemetery profanation, we must cancel the band DEICIDE to be sure not to have any problems regarding the festival. We are looking for a band that can replace them and we'll keep you informed very quickly."
Commented Sven Letourneur, joint editor-in-chief of France's Hard Rock magazine: "In fact, I read about it in the news, a few idiots, probably kids, profanated a cemetery near Nantes and wrote 'When Satan Rules His World' on one of the tombs... The authorities found that it was a DEICIDE song title, so news went out in the media, etc”.
Le Telegramme newspaper ran with a front-page story in its February 11 edition with the headline "Sur La Piste Des Satanistes" (On the track of the Satanists) containing this excerpt: "'When Satan Rules His World' is the exact title of a song from an American death metal band, an extreme music style that comes from hard rock, that appeared in the '80s and with lyrics that deal about everything that's morbid and gore. Name of the band: DEICIDE. Quite explicit... DEICIDE are currently at Morrisound Recording in Tampa, Florida with producer Jim Morris recording their most blasphemous album ever, "The Stench Of Redemption", which is due for release on June 6 on Earache Records.

grave desecration is weak those who did it would love it if one day some guy sledge hammered one of their dead family members tombstone dug up the body and put it in on their living room sofa. theyd probabl go get their favourite deishite cd and masturbate to it.

I see the IQ level of Deicide fans remains the lowest in the metal world, congratulations.
France refused to join the United States of Americunts in Iraq because they didn't want to join Bush's "Justification of an increased military budget Campaign 2003-0?"
Fuck Deicide. Fuck Benton.

I have no a single bit of respect for cowards who censor themselves, this is like weak obedience in advance...
In the name of "decency" we will face a new wave of suppression of all things deemed inappropriate. Because the fundamentalists are watching us, eh... so we should get more conservative ourselves, eh?
Be there riots (for a reasonable cause I must say) or grave desecrations - there is no connection to the music.. unless you want to construct one in order to come acros as extra smart to the dumbest. Fuck!

It's because of us "Americunts" that you are allowed to make comments like those. The world would be ruled by a single dictator if not for our intervention when these rulers get out of line.

Deicide has cancelled at least three tours in the recent years, or played just 30 minutes as as "full show". I don't care if they never play in Europe again.

Fine. I just hope the U.S does not do any heroic "interventions" here in Sweden. We do not have so much oil so maybe it´s more likely there will be an "Operation Norwegian Freedom" maybe?
It´s so nice hearing George hypocrite Bush talk about other countries not being allowed to have weapons of mass destruction when the U.S has tons of it

The ignorance shown by both the french organizers, as well as a number of users @ Blabbermouth clearly shows, that independent thinking isn't a given just because you can communicate.
Deicide have nothing to do with the desecrated graves?! Why slag them off for that? Or slag them off for being kicked off the bill??!!!
Deicide remain one of the biggest death metal outfits of all time, even though their latest releases have been below par - compared to the classic, unholy trinity of 'Deicide', 'Legion' and "Once Upon The Cross'.
I say pity the fools in France. Pity the fools in here who use it as a lame excuse to bash Deicide. U know nothing, and bathing your ignorance in the limelight of the internet won't be doing your name or reputation any good. U are weak and stupid.
Better luck next time. Lets hope Deicide get a fair chance to play some shows anyhow...

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Yeah sure, if it wasn't for The US Forces those farmers in Afghan Mountains would be ruling our asses. And thank god you stopped those goat hearders in Iraq, they looked quite menacing with their pitchforks and (to quote Colin Powell) " aloominum cylinders" pointed towards the West.
Shut up you fucking moron. I could make comments like those whether or not the US Military stuck their noses into every corner of the world.

Is there anything else that brings so many people together?
As for rubthebuddah's ignorant comments(and other, similar ones): what the fuck do you know about soldiering? As Das Schuetzenfest said, check out the Battle of Verdun. Better yet, read John Keegan's "The First World War", assuming you can read at that level. From what I've seen here, most of you need to pick up a book or two about history, ANY history, and start reading before you put your feet in your mouths. Or maybe just any book, period.
As for grave vandals: socially-marginalized losers. Who gets up in the morning and says "Gonna desecrate me the grave of an old woman"? That pretty much shows how much free time these jobless pissants have. The connection to Deicide? As usual, metal gets the blame, connection or no.

Yes, I do know that Satanism is a cult of mostly middle-schoolers who didn't get enough attention as youngsters.
Here's the thing: If they really have a religion that they actually believe in, then I can respect that. What I poke fun at are the losers that claim to be Satanic just to shock everybody.
The other problem I have is when those same losers constantly rip on other religions then claim others to be intolerance when their own comes under attack (RE: Isaac Hayes from South Park on Scientology).
To quote Matt Stone (Co-Creator of South Park): "[we] never heard a peep out of [him] in any way until we did Scientology (his religion). He wants a different standard for religions other than his own, and to me, that is where intolerance and bigotry begin."
Nobody cares about your bullshit opinion on BLS, either.

The problem, again, with the band is that they exist NOT to rock faces, but to shock people's parents.
That makes them posers. Silly, lame, and trite posers.

the word satan is derived from a latin word meaning away from or without god. satan isn't a beast, it's an act... rather a way of life. according to some stories and beliefs, lucifer chose satanism, and took the name of satan. but, i am satan. i am without a god. i rule my own world can create can destroy can love can hate can be evil can be good. i have no destiny i make my own choices.

Gallic Wars: Lost. In a war whose ending foreshadows the next 2000 years of French history, France is conquered by of all things, an Italian.
Hundred Years War: Mostly lost, saved at last by a female schizophrenic who inadvertently creates The First Rule of French Warfare - "France's armies are victorious only when not led by a Frenchmen."
Italian Wars: Lost. France becomes the first and only country ever to lose two wars when fighting Italians.
Wars of Religion: France goes 0-5-4 against the Huguenots.
Thirty Years' War: France is technically not a participant, but manages to get invaded anyway. Claims a tie on the basis that eventually the other participants started ignoring her.
War of Devolution: Tied; Frenchmen take to wearing red flowerpots as chapeaux.
The Dutch War: Tied.
War of the Augsburg League/King William's War/French and Indian War: Lost, but claimed as a tie. Deluded Frogophiles the world over label the period as the height of French Military Power.
War of the Spanish Succession: Lost. The War also gave the French their first taste of a Marlborough, which they have loved ever since.
American Revolution: In a move that will become quite familiar to future Americans, France claims a win even though the English colonists saw far more action. This is later known as "de Gaulle Syndrome", and leads to the Second Rule of French Warfare: "France only wins when America does most of the fighting".
French Revolution: Won, primarily due to the fact that the opponent was also French.
The Napoleonic Wars: Lost. Temporary victories (remember the First Rule!) due to leadership of a Corsican, who ended up being no match for a British footwear designer.
The Franco-Prussian War: Lost. Germany first plays the role of drunk Frat boy to France's ugly girl home alone on a Saturday night.
WWI: Tied and on the way to losing, France is saved by the United States. Thousands of French women find out what it's like not only to sleep with a winner, but one who doesn't call her "Fraulein." Sadly, widespread use of condoms by American forces forestalls any improvement in the French bloodline.
WWII: Lost. Conquered French liberated by the United States and Britain just as they finish learning the Horst Wessel Song.
War in Indochina: Lost. French forces plead sickness, take to bed with Dien Bien Flu.
Algerian Rebellion: Lost. Loss marks the first defeat of a Western army by a Non-Turkic Muslim force since the Crusades, and produces the First Rule of Muslim Warfare -"We can always beat the French." This rule is identical to the First Rules of the Italians, Russians, Germans, English, Dutch, Spanish, Vietnamese, and Eskimos.
War on Terrorism: France, keeping in mind its recent history, surrenders to Germans and Muslims just to be safe.

That little history lesson by rubthebuddah sounds suspiciously like something I once read in Maxim, or Stuff, (or Gigantic Asses).
American military history in a nutshell:
Couldn't invade Canada.
Canada 1, USA 0
Again: vandalizing graves isn't a way of rebelling against society by desecrating something sacred. Hardly. More like a cowardly act of ignorance demonstrating a lack of marketable job skills. And who gets the blame? Not the fuckwads who do it, but the scary guys playing scary music.

Get ready to get lynched by your own noose, bitch:
You don't have any idea what my opinion of Zakk Wylde is, do you? You just judged a book by its cover, because YOU are the one that likes to make generalizations. You just assume that because my username contains the phrase "Black Label", you injected your own stereotype for my opinion of world matters, metal music, sheep fucking, etc.
The fact that Deicide are the middle school losers who want mommy and daddy to pay attention to them is obvious (now get ready to learn, motherfucker:)
If they are Satanists, as you define them (meaning away from, or without God), then the word "Deicide" cannot exist. How can you kill a god that doesn't exist? Except that they're doing this for shock value due to the fact that they're attention-seeking posers, they've named their band after a(n allegedly) impossible concept, if they actually believe what they say they do.
I don't give a fuck what you believe, Deicide are posers.

^This conversation is adding to the abundance of evidence that MOST people who parade around talking about diversity and acceptance are the ones who are dealing most of the intolerance and bigotry.
Mask of Sanity, you should contact Isaac Hayes about doing a talk show. Then you could find a platform to voice your meaningless rants, and the world could respond by not watching.

My favorite thing that you said is "They are not confirming the existence of god, only mocking what has been forced down our throats as god."
I completely agree with you. It's not God that most mean to blaspheme, it's what other people say that God is that they make fun of.
I really don't have a problem whatsoever with this band, I just like to troll the threads and see what kind of nonsensical rebuttals I get. That's ironic because it's the same tactic I accuse the band of in my last argument. Like I said, this is all for fun, but I really do love the debate sometimes. To be honest, my sparring partner, Mask oF Sanity, actually argued his point most valiantly. There's not a "winner" or "loser" between us because neither one of us actually care.
You have to be careful what you say around here, or you'll get your ass banned and your posts deleted, like my all-time favorite Blabber-Poster, Ken Hawk.
Cheers to you, chorz, for ignoring the sub-genre bashing that goes on all day. I believe it's okay to dig Opeth, *gasp* Slipknot, Nile, Meshuggah, *gasp* Black Label Society, Nevermore, *gasp* Mudvayne, Tool, and Testament and not worry about what everybody calls "Mallcore" or "gay".
Like you say, brother, it's all metal.
