His personal views are inconsequential. What would anyone care? IT'S JUST
MUSIC.
It's like back in high school when I loved Mercyful Fate. 'How can you like
that stuff? It's totally Satanic.' Who cares! I just like the music. I don't
care what King Diomond's religious beliefs are.
Would you or I like Morrissey or Michael Stipe or Liberace any less knowing
that they're homosexuals? Or how 'bout Ozzy knowing that's he's
heterosexual? Would you or I like Richard Wagner any less knowing that he
fully supported Hitler?
Side note- Hitler was in a ragtime/jazz band. I forget what instrument he
played. Recordings of his band do exist. Anton Zandor LaVey played oboe in
the Cleveland(?) Orchestra. Louis Farrakahn(sp?) is an amazing violinist.
