Musical Ties to a Racial Graveyard

It must be ties of karma from the distant past that have destined you to become my disciple at a time like this. – Nichiren Daishonin, The Heritage of The Ultimate Law of Life, WND1, p217

Or the Inter-Connectedness of all things

Like ALL people in Western Europe, I’m a racial mongrel.  And I observe that various aspects of my mixed genetic tribal past are manifested at different times within me.  I know for a fact that I am Angle, Saxon, Danish, Orkadian, Welsh (i.e.ancient Briton or Celt).  There’s probably a few more if I looked.

So it is with Till Lindemann, Apocalyptica, Amon Duul 2 etc.  Such was the thought that occurred to me about a present predilection for Germanic gloom.  At other times I have a preference for light-hearted jollity or Gallic emotion, naff musicals and daft adverts, crude humour or technical wizardry, melodic orchestrations or classical power.   And so it goes.

Apart from the non-modern drums, there’s not much difference between Helden here or Amon Duul II doing Deutsche Nepal, below.  The basal snarling, the home-made “Choir Organ”, saga-like tales of a glorious and courageous armed past…
