I just found this on internet it looks like Necrobutcher from mayhem, and there is a nazi flag behind him so.... are the guys from Mayhem racist? Because I have never heard about them coming to latin america.

From what I recall Hellhammer was quite a racist, other than that I believe it's just for show.

One of their older albums is entitled Wolf's Lair Abyss, The Wolf's Lair was Hitlers base or something. They could be racist but I think they just are trying to be metal.

Epitomising the musical ideals of sub-underground black metal - the kind of stuff that comes out in limited editions of 300 through vinyl-only labels based in a cave in Belarus. The exact requirements of kvltness vary depending on who you talk to, but usually involve icy, impenetrable production, black-and-white cover art, and concepts drawn from black magic, pagan myths or out-and-out nihilism. Like anyone who takes art seriously these days, kvltists are the target of much mockery even from fellow extreme metal fans.
