Frenetic blackened death/thrash from Canada. Album released in 2020 after their reunion in 2018.

EDIT: removed my praise and the links to this nazi shit, but will keep it up to maintain awareness.

No more fucking back and forth. Huge thanks to those defending this as not nazi shit. You can fucking rest assured I will never post anything going to the far-right and regressive policies. My intention is to never piss anyone on the left off, nor do I want to advocate persecution, whether its from the right or the left. Now here are the links:

    To all those concerned: this is just the speed metal wheel. It’s a logo been used to rep speed metal for donkeys…

    EDIT: linked black sun stock photo for comparison, won’t post it here: Black Sun

    Commenting because I think the judgement here may have been a little hasty. It’s hard to find any information about these guys.

    What I will say is that this symbol is clearly not the black sun - it has 6 arms whereas the black sun has 12, the black sun has a ring somewhere outside the middle, and it also has that lightning bolt look to each of the arms whereas these ones have one right angle and then terminate. Edit - as someone else noted, it’s a symbol for speed metal.

    They also have a song called “National Front” from one of their earlier albums. Suspicious on its own, but I wanted to find some lyrics to confirm one way or the other. No luck. I listened to the song and couldn’t really understand most of the words, however they repeat “national front [blah blah blah]” several times. The last time they repeat it, they say “national front kills you and me” so on the plus side, that doesn’t sound like an endorsement of far-right politics.

    In this video, you can see an anarchist symbol on the vocalist’s vest. Also, not for nothing, there’s a black guy on bass.

      This guy gets it, seems to be an awful lot of witch hunting going on round here lately… But thanks for helping to clear this up, I appreciate your research and opinion.

      Suspect all you want, they seem to be apolitical. Bands sometimes use symbols they create to represent them:

      Metallica's M-star thing

      Judas Priest's pitchfork/cross thing

      Friggin' metalcore's Chimaira has that weird compass star with arrows and a goofy looking C inside it

      Death metal band Arch Enemy has the circle with the protrusions in the lower left of it

      Can’t derive any more meaning from it unless you give meaning to it specifically.

        Black Sun”. Closely tied to Himmler’s esoteric movement within the SS. Also notorious as a neo-nazi tatoo motive. IMO beyond just “suspicious” but a clear Nazi reference.

          Ah, I was not entirely aware of this, and appreciate you for this knowledge. This is disappointing as I thought I just found some more great extreme music but alas. It’s so tiring to remain vigilant in the consumption of random media to avoid every single little thing that could possibly be something shitty. Like we’re fighting against bogey-men. I’ll remove the links to their stuff in an attempt to stymie any particular progression right-ways.

          Edit: I’m putting back the links and my praise. Symbols are similar but not nazi shit thankfully.

            I went googling it out of curiosity and it doesn’t seem like they’re Nazis at all, seems like just a similar design to me

          Nah m8, its the speed metal logo, black sun has 12 “arms” if you will, just a coincidence similarity if you ask me. EDIT: see my comment on this post.
