No unfortunately, it's solely an homage to gonzo journalist Hunter S Thompson - Dr Gonzo is the alter ego of his sidekick/attorney Oscar Zeta Acosta in Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas.

I will say, if anyone knows the meaning of my user name and where the band got the word from (without googling!) I’d be very very impressed.

I assumed it was a biblical place or mythological name, like Golgotha

Nope as WCW said it’s a LoTR reference

I meant where the band got the name. And Gaahl is still a weird unit, saw him a few months ago, but the band had the name well before Gaahl joined.

The story behind the avatar is that it was meant to be a send up of Clayton Oliver. I had Photoshopped an avatar of Darcy Parish as an oompah loompa (as he used to have the Oompa loompa hairstyle) in anticipation of us drafting him way back when, but had to come up with an alternative when we picked Clarry.

My nerdy friend has gone and hasn’t answered my text. So ima guess that it’s a weird-a** creature  just like every character in LoTR. (???) 

Edit: I know it now. It’s a part of Kardinia Park aka Mordor.

Had a 17yo friend of my son’s over last night and she’s obsessed with Slipknot, roping me into watching clips of them. Gorgoroth make them look like The Wiggles.

Oh yeah Slipknot is the kiddy pool.

There has been multiple singers, hope you chose one of the better songs/singer 😬

And there is better (worse?) ha ha

Rather than throw a dart I put some thought into the selection. I chose the song with the closest to pleasant title (or the least disturbing)… “Prosperity and Beauty.” But there was nothing either prosperous or beautiful about it. 😳

And now I think everyone should watch it coz why should I be alone in not sleeping a wink tonight?!

Ahhhh, Gaahl was the singer for that, he is my least fav singer, needed to listen to something from

Quantos Possunt ad Satanitatem Trahunt

That’s my fav album, try Prayer or Rebirth 😃

 

And big props for listening to them.

What I normally say to people when first hearing extreme metal and especially some facets of it like Gorgoroth is try and hear the vocals as an instrument more than vocals. But then I’d usually use different black metal bands than Gorgoroth to ween people on it, like something from Atmospheric Black Metal sun genre… 😄

I listened to both of those tracks. Gotta say I didn’t totally hate them. They’re quite the lyricists, huh. Not that I could understand a single syllable of what he’s singing but I had the lyrics up on Spotty.

Put it this way, I’d sooner listen to this band than Ed Sheeran or Bruno Mars etc.

Ha ha that should be sub-genre.

And only entry level to those who listen to some metal or punk and looking for something more… next level 😅

Tbh their prob is as there are so many. 
I mean Uada worship the old moon gods/cycles, lots of pagan bands etc

suldusk from melb are a fav, she sings 95% clean vocals,

Drudkh are a Ukrainian band that put music to old Ukrainian poems and folksongs 

There is a sub genre DBM or DSBM - Depressive (suicidal) black metal which is slow and heavy but eerily beautiful.

None is one of the best bands in that genre. 
 

Hope I’ve opened your eyes to a different world and I’m stoked to hear you didn’t hate it 😄

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
