In my journey from being pathetic
kid that started with discovering metal music and underground in general all
long to the nowadays when I can work with some of my heroes from the past,
there were so many moments to enjoy in, but also so many to be absolutely
pissed of by people I met, people behind the music I worship. I was always
asking myself, what the hell happen to musicians and artists after they reach
some “higher” levels of popularity and when they stop to pay attention on the
most important segment of their career, their fans!? Music is damn art and
musicians as artists should really pay respect to their fans and worshipers as
they are these who make their tunes alive and keep them and spread them as
legacy or heritage. When the artist stop to feel it’s own art as pure joy and
freedom and become jerk who is thinking that he is the king of the world and
that all the others must lick his ass? They are all the same at the very
beginning in small clubs with just a few fans in front of the stage. They will
stay and talk with their fans until the next day and share drinks with them and
mostly acting friendly and normal in general as it should be of course. But
then, once they become popular and there are more and more fans on their shows
musicians change totally and start to be brainless rock divas with “I don’t
give the fuck” attitude. Why’s that so? Was all this at the beginning also fake
and pose? Was it just feeding of their ego and status? I mean, of course there
is no chance that they can spend all the time of their lives talking and
seating with their fans but hey?! Some basic acts of respect are always enough
and believe me, more than enough as fans will know how to praise it! Oh yes,
they will know and they will do it big time! You poor divas (if any of them
ever end up reading these lines I simply must write some lines in direct
addressing) so easily forgot where did you came from, what were your first
steps? It’s totally not strange that 95% of you end up as miserable lonely creatures
at the end of your lives…How can you be so disrespectable to these who like
your art? How’s that possible, maybe you’re absolutely fake and even don’t
believe in what you’re creating? In the last 10 years I’ve witnessed so many
times scenes where fans are meeting their lovely musicians and it was always
sad to see their disappointment after some cunts fuck them off as the damn
worms, but from the other side it was sooo great to see real men acting as a
huge stars what they actually are, and their approach to the fans
and moments
they spent together! I won’t mention here any of jerks and cunts, they don’t
deserve to be written in these lines but, what I want to mention are some of
these, real artists and big mans that left impression on me as they totally
deserve it! I want to dedicate this post to some of musicians who definitely
deserve add ARTIST and STAR as they know how to wear it proudly without loosing
of their identity and pride. Eternal hails to: Sodom, Kreator, DRI, UDO, Moonspell,
Hobbs Angel Of Death, Death Angel, Discharge, Exploited, Cathedral, Napalm
Death, Hypocrisy, Dissection (RIP), Desaster, Bombarder, Root, Rotting Christ,
Inquisition, Immolation, My Dying Bride, Tiamat, and many others that totally
made my day, or days once in this life we all live. Thank you maniacs, that’s
what we all live for. Stay the same, stay YOU \m/
