Odd very vague connection to fascism with Rammstein strangely enough.. They started off doing Laibach covers, hence the same + symbol for both bands. So, that symbol is the same as the cross that the nazis gave to Yugoslavian ss soldiers apparently, at least that's the story I heard.
Here's the image from an early Laibach record. You can see the axes forming a swastika barley.

Remember, Laibach are a band that used fascism to mock a strict communism in it's day, and later to mock the west as a new fascism. They're far from fascists themselves.

Rammstein even took that a step further and named themselves after a US military base. They probably get a sort of glee out of knowing that very very subtly they are mocking german anti nazi laws with their co-opting of that symbol.

So there's the connection. :wink:

yeah.. seeman, ohne dich, mutter, sonne, ich will

i can keep on going.. Probably the only hard rock stuff i really like (and nearly everything from them even)

edit: yeah well, i like them for the music and lyrics (and the fact they have the guts to make a song like mein teil.)

Americans; PULL OUT OF IRAQ.... produce your own friggin' oil....YOU started this - hipocrites! You call them terrorists because they can't afford proper uniforms and armored vehicles, and cruise missiles and whatnot.... Terror is killing innocent people far away from your own home to "protect your own interests".... sound familiar?

It's so typical US of A to run around the whole schoolyard and Bully everybody and then have the audacity to be insulted when somebody finally bites back.

I totally agree that Saddam was a Menace - but he was the Iraqi's menace!
Had he been a western African dictator NOTHING would have happened - 'cause there's no oil there to protect!

And PLEASE don't try to force democracy upon everybody in the world - have a close look at your own f***** up society and think again before you decide that's the only way to live!

Dear American Abletonians - this was just frustration - I know YOU are NOT to blame!!!

So, they were on the other side eh? The catholic church sided with Franco.... no wonder you are sympathetic towards fascism? Sorry man, you get no slack there. Franco was an asshole, if your relatives were on his side, or at least were less afraid of him because they were catholic etc. well I'm not at all surprised you think of fascism as not any worse than the other isms out there. Rolling Eyes
ok. i tried to be reasonable. But now you're just being a fucking asshole. And a stupid one, at that, too! do you really think anyone in rural parts cared particularly for one ideology or another? they wanted to live in peace, you dickhead. Yes, they were catholics. like all of spain long before franco. So what, if some church officials sided with faschist, your average joe in a village and his priest most of all just wanted to live. Don't make em look bad for feeling sorry or protecting individuals when kill squads (of the nowadays romanticised communists) searched their village.

You ignorant, word-twisting moron, I never said franco wasn't an asshole. I'm saying they were all assholes, so yes, if you want it like that, faschism isn't worse than lots of other isms to me. that doesn't make it good. Anyone not caught up in some ideology can spot the flaw in your logic.

In my book, ideologies all suck, call me a cynic, if you like. But don't have the audacity to call me a fascist!

Go fuck yourself, I'm done with the rational part of this, since clearly you have no feeling for what real people and real life are like.

(I'm done with the irrational part of this, too, just needed to get this off my chest).
