Hilarious Velvet Caccoon drama[views:2937][posts:11]________________________________________ [Aug 17,2006 9:45am - VoidExpression ""] So it's apparently official they have outright stolen their most recent releases from other artists ("How the Last Day" was an album bu Korouva and "Dizzy From Eternity" is an album by My Violent Ego). There is a long statement here: http://www.metal-archives.com/more.php?id=15954 as well other places all over the internet. The band has a history of deceit so it's definitely possible, just funny that they got away with it for so long. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 17,2006 10:10am - the_reverend ""] that is infinitely hilarious. |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 17,2006 10:20am - VoidExpression ""] I mean, if it turns out to be true I would feel bad for their fans (I am/was one) and the artists they stole from, but holy crap, they have some hhuge balls. |
| ______________________________________________ [Aug 17,2006 10:25am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] They've never been very good, 'Northsuite' is okay, so this matters little in the grand scheme of things. Pretty funny though. He couldn't murder someone to get his name out there so he stole other peoples' music. |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 17,2006 10:27am - VoidExpression ""] It was just standard atmo bm and nowhere near deserving the praise they recieved, but the ridiculous things they say are always entertaining. I bet all of the trve, kvlt, and grim black metal snobs are pissing themselves right now. I'm still leaning towards ill-conceived prank though. |
| ______________________________________________ [Aug 17,2006 10:34am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] It could be a prank just because he wants to deny his own experimentations? |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 17,2006 10:37am - VoidExpression ""] Because he is a tool who likes having mystique and controversy surrounding his band, no matter how retarded it is. |
| ______________________________________________ [Aug 17,2006 10:39am - DrinkHardThrashHard ""] He should focus more on his actual music, so he could be good, like Drudkh. |
| _________________________________________ [Aug 17,2006 10:42am - VoidExpression ""] He probably can't be that good, hence all of the parlour tricks. |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 17,2006 12:36pm - anonymous ""] the fact that they can consistently post messages somewhere on the net, and then with in days it shows up on hundreds of message boards everywhere is some fucking amazing marketing skills. Bands should hire this guy as a PR guy. |

| ____________________________________ [Aug 20,2006 6:08pm - infoterror ""] THIS BAND WAS ALWAYS A JOKE JUST METAL FANS ARE OFTEN FUCKING STUPID AND LISTEN TO IT ANYWAY |
