Above my toilet I have a replica of Venom's "Seven Dates of Hell" tour poster, featuring the demonic face found on the cover of their album Black Metal. While taking a piss a minute ago, I was face to face with this somewhat cartoonish evil, and found myself silently yelling at it. The trivial trappings and images of evil may be fascinating, but in the end they are just that- trivial. I may not be a Christian in the true sense, or religious at all, but I think I know where I stand when it comes to good and evil. Maybe that's why I get such a kick out of metal.
Man, if 6.6.(0)6 keeps up like this, then I'm gonna have one hell of an interesting day.
