Black Metal For The Oppressed
“Feminazgul is an antifascist band, sure, in that I’ve been involved in antifascist struggle for a long time, and I’m in the band, and we don’t fuck with Nazis or all this Nazi-apologism that’s going on. But Feminazgul is a feminist band, first and foremost. It’s (two, at the moment) women pushing for space within the remarkably male-dominated world of black metal,” says Margaret Killjoy of Feminazgul. Killjoy is well-known in American anarchist circles as a popular fantasy and political writer, and she is constantly extending her creative reach.
“What I think antifascist black metal can do is, it can basically say, ‘If you’re a Nazi we’ll fucking fight you,’ and it can show that antifascist themes are just as, if not more, fitting within the aesthetics of black metal. We too can express mourning, longing, rage, the beauty of the natural world, a hatred of religions imposed upon us by force, all of that shit.”
