Mgla are on another European tour right now, passing from countries in Southern Europe among many reactions already, as expected because of the band's well-known fascist connections, which they've always refused to acknowledge. In Greece, many anti-racist organizations and pages have called out the band and the organizers have responded by threatening to sue everyone that is supposedly spreading lies about the band, although these connections have been public, well known and published by numerous sites for a long time now. Starting from the antisemitic song titles of main member M.'s Leichenhalle project such as Judenfrei ("free of Jews") and Jerusalem in Flames under the pseudonym of "Zyklon", to their longtime collaboration with Mikko Aspa (known nazi activist who maintains a shop selling nazi memorabilia, has performed in openly NSBM bands and even has pedophilic themed music projects) as a band signed to his label Northern Herigate, to M. and drummer Darkside performing as live members of his band Clandestine Blaze and their other band or personal associations with other nsbm acts. Even if the band never addressed these facts, supporters of the band and organizers are claiming that these were "things of the past", but it takes only a few minutes to see that these are complete lies and Mgla have always been and continue to have many nsbm associations to this day.

First of all, Mgla's latest album in 2019 is still on Northern Heritage, so perhaps nothing more should be said that when you buy Mgla's albums released in NH, you are literally funding a nazi and his operations. Still, we can immediately find more information on metal archives, like that M. as a sound engineer has been working with NSBM pioneers Graveland on their recent 2016 and 2021 albums (check screenshots on our Twitter thread) and has worked in the past with another openly nazi band Thunderbolt, with Infernal War in 2015 (of song titles like "Infernal SS", "Black Legions of SS", "Jewhammer" and association with polish RAC band Honor), of course also still working with Aspa's Clandestine Blaze with their latest album in 2021 and so on. So, it's quite obvious that any arguments about Mgla's disassociation with the NSBM scene are fantasies and lies. It does not need to be said that the "silent" supporters of fascism in the scene, which claim to have no political views as a band, are as dangerous as the open fascists and in fact, they set the ground and the platform for them to march on. So perhaps it's time we tell these kinds of bands to get the fuck out of our music and never come back

@bdb_kolega_od_s-ca ale jeżeli są faszystowscy to ja bym prosił tego silnie z nacjonalizmem nie mieszać, bo to nie są synonimy tylko cholerni radykałowie. To się nie opłaca, bo płacz nie płacz nacjonalizmu nie wyrugujesz ale spychanie wszystkich nacjonalistów do takiej szufladki naprawdę nie jest rozsądne nawet jeżeli pewne ekstremalne grupy są niestety promowane nawet przez PIS jak na ich marszach...
