Common neonazi symbols, an incomplete list. Correction: The sign listed as Pegida is not commonly used by Pegida but is used by the northwest Europe based neonazi Identity Movement.
Especially relevant for people moving within the Black Metal-Scene
Yes yes yes yes yes, while there are nazi’s in other music genres, they’re huge in metal and actually get booked at non-political metal festivals like it’s no big deal! Disgusting shit. Also keep an eye on:
- Album titles and band names that have two words both starting with the letter S.
- Nazi number symbolism (18 means Adolh Hitler, 88 means Heil Hitler, 14 means a lot of bullshit and the three get mixed together to make numbers like 1488, 8814 etc)
- Songs with nazi phrases like ‘blood and honour’, ‘ blood and soil’, ‘
My Honor Is Loyalty’
- References to German military units. If a band is called Panzerdivision… yeah…
There’s more but these are some obvious starting points to spotting nazi metal.
