so fuckin rad to see a weird folk-fiction purveyor say this boldly, because there's always this tension in weird folk stuff, a tension which can be summed best as "wait, are these guys nazis though?" https://twitter.com/HooklandGuide/status/1247995765420630017

it shouldn't be that way -- ethnonationalist dickheads don't understand the first thing about folk traditions, their own or anybody else's -- and letting them poison the well is exactly what not to do

but be all that as it may, any metal fan knows the dance of finding a band who seems kickass and then seeing "Wisdom of Odin" or something in their songtitles and thinking "ok, let me do some research before I throw any coins at these guys"

Hookland has pretty clearly been on the side of the truly weird, which means the righteous, since the jump, and it's great to see them waving that flag
