Raise your horns in memory of the great Quorthon, a true musical innovator and a fellow countryman (to me). Hail him, and let's wish that that Odin accepts him into his halls!

Bad news

[TB666]

He was a great man.
He must never be forgotten.

Rest in peace... We can be sure he's in Valhalla now.

RIP Quorthon and may thy music live forever

 

[Hopkins-WitchfinderGeneral]

May he reign in Valhalla forevermore.

The great hall does indeed welcome a fallen brother.

By speaking of dead heroes... Ronald Reagan died not too long ago as well, in case you didn't know that.

Ronald Reagan was badass, Quorthon was badass too. They are both eternally badass.

Yeah but how many people here care about him?

 

[víkingr]

why should we not care about him? Cause he has nothing to do with metal or what?

 

[TheLastWithPaganBlood]

Yeah and besides, for the people in eastern europe and the former USSR he is quite an important man.

 

[PaganBlood]

He is VERY important in australia! lol

And I think Ray Charles died to. A great source of inspiration for insults, such as "Ray Charles sees more shit than you do" etc.. fuck I'm bored too...

 

[Brainkisser]

Speaking of Ray Charles, I heard from a pretty reliable source he was actually quite an asshole in person.

As to Reagan, he may have been good for the rest of the world but I haven't heard anything I like about his domestic work.

 

[Thorshammer]

This is indeed terrible news. I was listening to Nordland 2 the other day and was thinking 'I wonder when the next Bathory album will be done'.

Let us raise a jar of mead to a fallen brother.
