I'd feel pretty threatened if someone suddenly began messaging me in Finnish if not for the fact that I am Finnish myself.
Wait that is Finnish? ;)
I just copy pasted a piece of metal text which I knew I couldn't understand when I heard it. (Did check if first if it doesn't shout something vile however) Was worried somebody would go 'that isn't black metal that is pagan metal!' and I would lose my metal card.
Being worried that someone calls you out for misidentifying a metal subgenre is a metal fan staple. In any case Moonsorrow is definitely at least BM adjacent and a lot of black metal musicians are pagan for… varyingly good reasons.
Hmm dunno, "The ice blinds your eyes as far as the eye can see, the wind furiously slashes through hands, the mountains surround their prey…" Sounds pretty violent 😉
Sure, a bit violent, but I worried it might be mega racist, not lyrics about covering people in mountains of snowballs.
Poetic description of normal weather in Finland.
