Getting really worked up by this song and the entire fucking album! Bloody amazing and adrenaline pumping.

KREATOR. Teutonic thrash lords. Flag of Hate is my favorite Kreator song, it's on the Pleasure to Kill re-issue from 2000.

My favorite Kreator song is Riot of Violence. I guess you're talking about re-recorded Flag of Hate, it was originally on Endless Pain from 1985 :p

First let us see if this lad is indeed a valuable asset. Thus far it is not looking good. Always be critical when it comes to newcomers. If they're not just vulgar puppet nations of the usual suspects, they may still disappoint in either the conventional or disturbingly original ways.

Fortunately Baghanathria is still very much irrelevant and therefore not someone whose opinions matter. Maybe that sounds harsh, but it's the risk you run when you are a summer newcomer. Summer newcomers are distrusted for very good reasons, since the summer is traditionally the season when this forum gets flooded with irate children.

Don't take it personally. It's just the social dynamic of TET's residents. A lot of undesirables come and go, especially at this time of year. People just like to play it safe.

I'm one of the much newer people, but TET residents are some of the nicest I've ever had the pleasure of chatting/exchanging telegrams with. Just stick around for a while.

I think their gist was more that you should become an astronomer, but it is late here, and I may be misinterpreting their argument. Here in the southern hemisphere, we get different constellations, so the more subtle connotations of their sentiments may be wasted on me.
