We went to Norway to interview Gaahl, lead singer of the band Gorgoroth. Gaahl really believes in this whole ideology behind what he's doing—he's not just some rockstar fronting a band. The thing with Black Metal is, in Norway, everybody is exactly the same. There's nothing to rebel against, because everybody's really well off. It's one of the richest countries in Europe. There is no lower class, it's like middle-class white kids everywhere—no one has anything to complain about. And he's this sort of eccentric figure amidst this sea of contentment and sameness. The way I see it is, in America you have guys like 50 Cent who are supposed to be the "villain." Kids like him cause they're parents hate him, and that's basically what Gaahl is. He's their musical villain so to speak. But there's a lot of different sides to the scene.

dood ghaal actually freaks me out. it was like he put himself in a trance. like meditating, did you see how his eyes were so blank? that shit was nuts
Wow that was so scary man! the way he just stayed quiet and motionless for like 3 straight minutes! l would have gotten out of there inmediately after the first 15 seconds :-S
Well, before in the video he said he didn't want people to follow him because that is what god is to the sheep, a guide. So when the interviewer asked him to "guide him" he probably felt like he hadn't listen to anything that gaahl had been telling him. Freaky shit though, eh?
