Pagans and people who are into pagan lore, mythology, etc. will often self-identify as heathens, especially in the metal community. It's pretty common.
How seriously people mean it depends on the individual - some people really intend it as a serious identity and others call themselves that in a tongue-in-cheek larp-y kind of way.
Mine is like half-way serious. Which I thought would be obvious because the word's formal use have largely fallen out of the cultural lexicon.
