Song of the Day #11

I just found these two video interviews of Fenriz from the legendary black metal pioneers Darkthrone, and it just confirms in my mind how fucking rad he is. As grim and evil as Darkthrone's sound was in the early days, Fenriz still has a sense of humor and you can just tell that this dude is just a regular old dude when it comes down to it, and a music lover to boot. The first one starts off in Norsk, but they speak mostly English for the remainder of the 10 minute interview.



This one is completely in Norsk, but it has English subtitles and it is super funny. Fenriz is interviewed for some weird mainstream Norwegian TV magazine about his favorite record.



Dude. We just watched Fenriz play air guitar to Uriah Heep in his bedroom.

Gabe Serbian told me that the last time The Locust toured Norway, he met Fenriz and went to his house to hang out. Aparently, Fenriz had a Wham! 7" sitting in his room. When Gabe asked him about it, he got all embarassed and told him he just liked the cover. Hmmm....

So here is a download of that Adrenaline O.D. song Fenriz was rocking out to in the first video. So good.

I just ordered a copy of the new Striborg DVD from Aquarius Records in San Francisco and I can't wait to see it! Here is a video of some of the outtakes from the DBD I found.



And if you aren't familiar with Striborg, you can check it out by following the link below. Not for everyone. Not for 99%, more like it. This is some EXTREMELY raw, primitive, fucked black metal from the rainforests of Tasmania.
