Debunking the Myth of Homosexuality in Ancient Hellas

One of the biggest lies today is that homosexuals was widely accepted in the Ancient Hellenic world, something which ofcourse is a lie. Here is a video (With English subtitles) which you can take a good in-depth view about homosexuality in Ancient Hellas.

Irish Heathens PRIMORDIAL reveal new album

Finally, 2 years after the brilliant "The Gathering Wilderness", the Irish Heathens coming up with a new album. Here is the official Press Statement taken from http://www.primordialweb.com/

PRIMORDIAL – TO THE NAMELESS DEAD

PRESS RELEASE

So we are finally finished the recording of our sixth album. After a few rain sodden weeks locked up in Foel Studios in North Wales “To The Nameless Dead” is for all but mastering and final artwork completed.

This time far away from the chaos and negative influences of a big city the recording process was far smoother and more complete then we have ever known. We left at the end quietly satisfied as opposed to feeling like our nerves were shot and far more stressed then we began. Much of this we owe to Chris Fielding who engineered it and put many long hours into its creation and to Dave Anderson who has created something we can only call a “good vibe” in the middle of nowhere far from the meddling influence of civilisation….immense thanks.

The sound is of course instantly recognisable as PRIMORDIAL but more powerful then before, heavier and richer with a much more rounded sound then before. Whereas "The Gathering Wilderness" was a dark often impenetrably bleak work “To The Nameless Dead” has found the fire in its veins to defy, to rebel, to stand up and oppose all. This is a vast and epic album, more pounding and full of rage than PRIMORDIAL has been for many a winter…

It is defiantly at odds with a modern metal scene that often seems to place banality, mediocrity and safety above passion, honesty and truth.It does not sound like a computer recorded it, it does not sound like a procession of riffs simply poached from metals founding fathers, it is not a mindless exercise in musical masturbation. This is Metal as it was meant to be played. With Passion…

We play music because we have to…this is in our veins. This is our culture, our history, our folklore, our heritage. We make no apologies, we will not compromise. And now with our sixth album “To The Nameless Dead” we are about to make our strongest statement yet…

How many of you are familiar with LONG VOYAGE BACK?
Its a band created by Phil Gresik who previously involved in other Australian bands like Bestial Warlust/Destroyer 666, Hobbs Angel of Death e.t.c. I noticed several years now the band`s name mentioned in many zines and playlists but for some strage reason i had never checked their material. Yesterday i found a track of them on youtube and i was fucking suprized!!! Long Voyage Back sound totally different from all the other Aussie hordes that most people know. Sounds to my ears like a mix of Irish Primordial (music-wise) combined with chanting-like vocals.
Long Voyage Back stuff now is a top priority for me and its something that i`ll for sure hunt down in the next days.

Ingmar Bergmann lost the chess match with Death at the age of 89

I became familiar with Bergman's works a couple of years ago. My first touch with his films was ofcourse with the Classic Masterpiece "The Seventh Seal" (Original title "Det Sjunde Inseglet"). I was really suprized of how Bergman managed to capture so perfectly the magical atmosphere of the Middle Ages(The excelent performance of Max Von Sydow helped as well into this), the Black Death and the religious themes around it. The Seventh Seal is definately a big chapter in the history of European Cinema. Since "Det Sjunde Inseglet" Bergman created many films which to be honest i have checked only a few ( "Jungfrukällan" is another good film as well), but The Seal and only The Seal is enough to put Bergman in the list of my favorite directors.

Sometimes words are not enough to describe some things.Here you can see the 1957 trailer of "The Seventh Seal", those who already saw the film will understand what i mean, those who dont, i`ll advice you to throw now in the trash can the plastic hollywood carbage and put your hands as soon as possible to the real DARK ART!

Ingmar Bergman died few days ago (30th of July) at his home in Faro island , Sweden.

METAPEDIA:The Alternative Electronic Encyclopedia about Culture, Art, Science, Philosophy and Politics.

Most of you already know the online library Wikipedia. Today i found METAPEDIA, which from the first view i had looks pretty good! I`m always glad to see people like us, with the same passion about our European Heritage & History to come with such nice ideas. They deserve our full support and respect!!!

Below is the Metapedia Mission Statement and link:

Metapedia is an electronic encyclopedia about culture, art, science, philosophy and politics.
The word 'Metapedia' is derived from two concepts from classical greek: 'meta' that means 'outside' or 'beyond'; and 'enkyklios paideia' that means 'encyclopedia'. The name has a dual symbolic meaning:
Metapedia sets its focus on topics that usually are not covered in — i.e. that falls outside of — mainstream encyclopedias.
Metapedia has a metapolitical purpose, to influence the mainstream debate, culture and historical view.
The project is still in its early stages, but the database is growing every day and you are heartily welcome to contribute to the growth of this valuable and unique encyclopedia.

Metapedia:Mission statement

Being able to present one’s own definitions of concepts as well as interpretations of various phenomena and historical events is a vital part of every metapolitical and cultural struggle. This is more important than ever in these modern times, where many concepts have been distorted and lost their original meaning – which can be regarded as a result of our political opponents’ successful cultural struggle.
The possibility to influence the language is vital if you want to shape people’s world view. The Frankfurt school and their ideological heirs are good examples in this regard, and have been very successful in stigmatizing previously natural and sound values and attitudes and making them seem pathological by inventing and popularizing concepts such as "xenophobia” and the like. This clearly illustrates the power of language and words, and it is therefore important that we start re-conquering our languages.
Another important purpose of Metapedia is to become a web resource for pro-European activists. Metapedia makes it easy for our cadres to expand their knowledge on various important subjects, and also functions as a searchable reference.
Furthermore Metapedia gives us the opportunity to present a more balanced and fair image of the pro-European struggle for the general public as well as for academics, who until now have been dependent on strongly biased and hostile “researchers” like Searchlight, Anti-Defamation League, Southern Poverty Law Center, Simon Wiesenthal centre, and such.

Thermopylae Annual Memorial 2007

On Saturday, 14th of July, the Golden Dawn Movement honored the memory of the battle of Thermopylae, in a demonstration true to the Spartan spirit of the Heroes of our Race, who came to the Pantheon through their sacrifice 2.500 years ago.

Comrades from all over Hellas came to pay tribute to the sacred land of Thermopylae, where the monument of King Leonidasʼ lays. They were holding the black and red flags with the symbol of Meandros and the blue and white Hellenic flags.

The ceremony started with the sundown, in a reserved and well mannered way. The first spokesman spoke about the significance of sacrifice and the message of Thermopylae that was carried through the years by the Heroes of our Race and Nation. The representative of the Youth Front, followed, mentioning the historical facts of the battle.

Finally, the leader of the Golden Dawn Movement mr. N. G. Mihaloliakos accused the modern Greek state and the politicians who degrade the Hellenic history and do not respect this sacred historical spot. He underlined that the new Spartans are the Greek Nationalists who hear the call of duty and even sacrifice their freedom, like our comrade Periandros.

After the speeches, the comrades lid torches, symbolizing the souls of the fallen, singing the Movementʼs Anthem and the National Anthem.

Ancient heritage site destroyed by Irish government

Its no secret anymore how much the so-called "European" Goverments respect our History, Heritage and Identity. Ireland is not an exception to the rule.

"At Tara in Ireland, thousands of years of important Irish and European archaeology have been wiped out by the Irish government – in the middle of the night! And more is threatened.

The ancient Irish archaeological landscape of Tara suffered a terrible blow this month.
For the last few years the Irish government has been implementing plans to build a four-lane flood-lit motorway through the middle of this priceless area of Irish and European heritage. Tara is older than the pyramids, older than Stone Henge, older than the Great Wall of China. Tara was for thousands of years the seat of the Irish kings and queens.
On July 5th, construction workers using heavy earth-mover machinery entered the Baronstown monument in the Tara valley. Baronstown was a massive Bronze Age settlement and burial ground. They entered this area in the middle of the night. By the morning the archaeological site was completely destroyed.
The Irish governmentʼs own expert archaeologists have stated that the burial ground at Baronstown was a site of great importance, and deserved the status of Irish National Monument. Yet in the space of a few hours, nothing now remains of this important part of both Irish and European heritage. The terrible irony is that EU subsidy funds are helping to finance this motorway. Therefore European Union funding is directly contributing to wiping out Europan heritage.
Commissioner at the European Parliament, Stavros Dimas, sent a letter of reprimand this month to the Irish government about Tara and the M3 motorway. On July 13, he also called the Minister responsible, John Gormley of the Irish Green Party, to his office in Brussels. Because, unfortunately, there is another ancient site due to be destroyed, this time a site with the official status of Irish National Monument – the recent archaeological discovery at Lismullen in the Tara valley. This site was originally an enormous wooden henge, and used as a pagan temple of worship by the ancient kings and queens of Ireland. The Irish government is planning within the next months to ʽpreserve it by recordʼ, that is, to photograph it, put a few parts in storage, and then bulldoze through the rest to make way for the motorway. If this is allowed to happen, European Union money will again have been used to destroy a vital part of our European heritage.
It is important to note that other routes for this motorway have always been available. It is possible for a motorway to be built along another route and for the landscape of Tara to remain completely intact. However, for whatever reasons, and people can only speculate as to what those reasons could be, the Irish government insists on the motorway going through particular areas of land, in this multi-million Euro project.
Irish Member of the European Parliament, Kathy Sinnott, has stated that what the Irish government is doing at Tara is clearly illegal within the framework of European Union law.
Now is the time to act. Please email your local Member of the European Parliament and ask them to support efforts within the EU to prevent the Irish government from destroying more of our common European heritage, and from doing so using European Union funding.

This is a vital time in the effort to save Tara. Please pass this information on to everyone you can."
