Reminder, Lemmy Kilmister collected nazi memorabilia. It might not be as deep as you think. Half the time metal with neo nazi themes just sounds like a bunch of dinosaures yelling.
There's a difference between Motorhead, the Sex Pistols, and someone like Slayer who all used Nazi imagery to provoke in a problematic way and bands that claim to be part of the National Socialist Black Metal scene. I mean... I can't understand the lyrics on an Absurd record without the lyric sheet, but the giant blank sun in their artwork is a dead giveaway
Just searched "band absurd" and found artwork with a sonnenrad. Fuck Absurd.
Sorry, are you saying that Lemmy probably was into Nazis beyond collecting their stuff or that that's as far as his interests went?
No he wasn't, Gene Simmons even got into a big fight with him about it.
