I'm pretty sure proscriptor gives a fuck about what some SJWs cry about on last.fm shoutbox. Melissa Moore's, (formerly Vis Crom), contributions to Absu include only 1 album and they have not really had a role in Absu's classic albums (tbh never even checked out the latest album yet, can't imagine it ever coming close to Tara) and everyone's talkin as if proscriptor ruined the band or something. Absu has always been driven by the energies of proscriptor, and he's got every right to do whatever the fuck he wants whenever he wants. Sad to see people now attacking his apparent orientation because 'celtic skirts'), careful now ye of colored hair, thy words betray thy baseness, like contrary to what you might believe, life isn't just about sex, it's also about badass shapeshifting celtic sea gods and shit although I'm pretty sure the latter isn't interesting enough when you are just using the music as an accessory to boost your social clout.

The guy who booted ts was acting out of self interest, much like a SJW, to bolster his social neckbeard incel credo, pretty pathetic and not very scientific but strictly bound by Christian morality and fear of shame. https://notchesblog.com/2017/05/02/evidence-for-trans-lives-in-sumer/ it is interesting that you wrote: "Life is not just about sex" in this context, because ancient Sumerian culture revolved around sexuality. In the Epic of Gilgamesh, Enkidu, a savage who lived with animals, is prepared for civilised lifestyle through six days and nights of sexual marathon with a sacred prostitute.

I believe Proscriptor is actually from Texas and not really from ancient fucking Mesopotamia and having a Sumerian name and then having a Celtic theme should pretty much tell you about what Absu is about. Absu is pretty much about him, like how Megadeth is to Mustaine, and let's be honest people come to see Absu and to see a croaking frantic octopus behind the kit and not some guitarist. Perhaps he he didn't want the band to be defined as that band with the trans guitarist in it when pretty much the band's legacy was cemented decades before anyone decided to take hormones or whatever. "Tell Russ if they put the trans symbol on the front cover of the album I’ll sign the paper" is pretty illuminating lol. Also let's just accept the fact that black metal is indeed an "incel" genre. It must NOT really have the space for any daisy chain "progressive" outfit. Let there be gender bending artistes in the genre, but do what thou wilt most primarily.

Proscriptor strikes me as a frightened gay man who can't admit his sexuality, who was aroused and disappointed when his bandmate came out as a woman because Proscriptor likes real men with hairy armpits, not effeminate ones. He couldn't accept this revelation and broke up the band. I found the statement "black metal is an incel genre" questionable, as all edgy teens in Norwegian black metal scene have had sexual experiences with girls. Texas used to be an open-minded state where transgender people were widely accepted. But since rightist purists have been in a fever to pass unconstitutional bans and criminalise drag queen shows for kids, the country has turned into a backward conservative witch-hunt shithole.

This shoutbox is incredibly entertaining. Absu in their golden era (ie everything up to "Tara") is legendary, amazing stuff.

Imagine being into the occult, into ancient mythologies, thinking yourself as some kind of savant and being this small-minded. What a fraud.

Proscriptor not only wears eyeliner and/or skirts in his band photos, but also strikes the most flamboyant poses, and somehow breaks up the band just because one of his band mates came out as trans, there are some serious insecurities that guy hasn't dealt with

the guy just overreacted, probably because of his dense fan base, i mean even if his bro came out as TS it would at best cause giggles for 1 month top and then people would forget like you said they all look pretty feminized. honestly I have hard time distinguishing whether it's Mc or Ms Govern. It's within the realm of possibility to hit Ms Govern bunghole by accident. a fragile mind would think it's the end of the world and his career as a musician is in shambles because he's probably borderline, so he booted his friend out at the public's expense. because his fragile masculinity was compromised in the eyes of his fans. Just kick that bitch out,I am not going to perform with women, yea I am going to perform with hypermasculine men with brown sweater.So much insecurity for nothing and he's probably waxes his ass off if the fans do not see it. it's funny to see people hypersensitive to SJW's acting like SJWs.for me his career as a musician is crossed out for acting like a little bitch

if you do not understand what I have written, I will repeat it slowly so that you are able to understand a more complex cynicism than the one you have written in caps , little by little. You know that insecure, toxic men use the word wo-man as a slur to undermine the "masculine pride" of others, but not only that, it's also used to insult the womanhood, as an inferior biology/identity/social role compared to men. That's pretty ironic considering the guy who kicked out transsexual because they're supposedly inferior (yes, there is something that self proclaimed rEaL mEn tink is even worse than wo-men), looks like a little bitch himself.So I thought it was clever of me to phrase it that way, but apparently it set off some very inarticulate,insecure individuals. https://www.thewildcatroar.com/opinion/2020/10/14/dont-call-me-woman/ --To summarize,if you are at all concerned that your masculinity is being compromised by some effeminate men who identify as women,then your manhood is low

based transexual black metal. i always thought absu was gender-neutral or transexual, because of "mixed waters" and he got slain too easily (he was actually taking a nap lol), he didn't like the way the young gods wanted to divide elements aka feminine/masculine, and to organize chaos. Kingu was the first masculine tough stud of Tiamat and progenitor of humanity, he was the chosen merciless ruthless bloodthirsty god of war involved to get revenge for vanquishing the kinky absu.

"Individuals who went against the traditional gender binary were heavily involved in the cult of Inanna. During Sumerian times, a set of priests known as gala worked in Inanna's temples, where they performed elegies and lamentations. Men who became gala sometimes adopted female names and their songs were composed in the Sumerian eme-sal dialect, which, in literary texts, is normally reserved for the speech of female characters. Some Sumerian proverbs seem to suggest that gala had a reputation for engaging in anal sex with men. During the Akkadian Period, kurgarrū and assinnu were servants of Ishtar who dressed in female clothing and performed war dances in Ishtar's temples. Several Akkadian proverbs seem to suggest that they may have also had homosexual proclivities."

why totally, ancient Sumerians were totally on ancient Sumerian Discord servers grooming their ancient Sumerian underage kittens and screaming at ancient Sumerian minimum wagies in ancient Sumerian coffee shops for messing up their ancient Sumerian pronouns

the idea that the ancient Sumerians were shackled by Christian morality is disgusting and simply not real.

Absolutely legendary, for a reason. Sad Proscriptor ended the project because of an absolute crybaby. On the good side of things, can't wait to listen to his next record next year.

Lol at the snowflake babies throwing out the T-slur and getting all mad because Proscriptor said "no girls allowed" and clowned on himself so hard that he had to change the band name to avoid lawsuit like the snivelling coward that he is.

Their first two EP's are some great stuff. Also, how did the band belong to Vis? The only album credit for Vis is their final LP. Sad that a good band is done for.

My favorite black metal band along with Abigor, with Proscriptor being one of my favorite drummers in metal. Everything they released up to Tara is classic stuff and they are fucking excellent live.

I live in Dallas, Texas, and grew up in this area, which means I remember when Absu were a phenomenal local death metal band in 1991, much harsher and more underground, than Pantera in neighboring Forth Worth who, just a couple of years before, had still been a local act with their first thrash-y album, "Power Metal" getting them as popular as I ever thought they would be. It still blows my mind that both of these bands achieved international stardom--back in the late 80s, Rigor Mortis was the only underground metal band from our area that had a national album out, and that seemed like an accident!
