Lots of books about English skinheads and the band Skrewdriver have been published in English. Personally, I consider the best book on this topic to be Nazi Rock Star by Paul London, aka Paul Burnley, ex-singer of the band No Remorse. This book offers the most comprehensive look at Skrewdriver and goes into Ian Stuart’s childhood, explaining his ideology and motivations. (more…)

Salut! Salut! Salut! We had heard enough greetings, so we got out of the car in the village of Dömös and changed into military clothes. We were given sports shirts by Légió Hungária (LH) and quickly fell in with their group.
They set a fast pace walking uphill.

I was honored to talk with him about his writing, contemporary dissident artists, his personal experiences, and his tastes.
You are relatively young. Could you introduce yourself to our readers? (more…)

Man can work musically with his zeitgeist, analyzing it and then either accepting it as one’s own or radically rejecting it. Here I would like to deal with the latter in a certain limited territory where this phenomenon has occurred to a quite large extent: the Right-wing music scene in Italy. (more…)

Beau Albrecht is one of Counter-Currents’ funniest authors. I personally enjoy reading his articles on topics such as music, bizarre books, humor, and current events. I haven’t seen any interviews with Beau, so I decided to do one. Maybe you’ll read something unexpected. (more…)

“Every act of beauty is a revolt against the modern world. “
Rome has stuck to the rule of releasing a new album every year. 2019 was no exception, and the band delighted some of us with the album Le Ceneri Di Heliodoro — some, because some will lose their illusions about the band after reading my article. (more…)

Rammstein was formed in 1994 in Berlin by six men who were originally from East Germany. Their name came from the 1988 Ramstein air show disaster. They created a new musical genre called Neue Deutsche Härte (New German Hard Rock), which was basically a combination of hard rock with elements of techno. (more…)

Robert N. Taylor was born in 1945 and grew up in a working-class neighborhood on the south side of Chicago.

In 1969 he started the music group Changes with his cousin, Nicholas Tesluk. After its revival in 1996, the group would go on to become a seminal part of the American apocalyptic folk genre. (more…)

Today I would like to introduce the very popular fourth full-length album from the band M8l8th, Reconquista. The band itself has gone through three phases in their development, even though they have always played — and still play — true National Socialist Black Metal (NSBM). The first phase ran from 2003 to 2014, when the singer was arrested for racially-motivated assault (he claims it was self-defense) and subsequently convicted. (more…)
