Arghoslent
About
Website https://weltenfeind.com/arghoslent Arghoslent (meaning "Slave of the Universe" in Ancient Greek) is an American melodic death metal band from Oakton, Virginia,[1] formed in mid-1990. While acclaimed in the metal underground for their traditional metal-influenced brand of galloping riffs and bluegrass-style guitar leads, the band's white supremacist lyrics have been the source of extensive criticism.[2] Arghoslent's primary lyrical themes include historical racism, apologia for the transatlantic slave trade, medieval warfare,[3] eugenics,[4] imperialism, and European genocide efforts against Native Americans. Multiple sources, including the Southern Poverty Law Center, The Daily Beast, and Vice magazine have classified Arghoslent as white power music.[5][6][7] The band's music was removed from streaming services and online retailers such as iTunes beginning in 2014.
