      It's such a cool effect..bands that invoke that ancient war culture that so many cultures have had through history just carry that mystique...amon amarth does that so well too..as someone with direct Scandinavian blood and can trace my family like back to a viking king that sit hits me deep lmao.

And frankly he's not wrong, they do look like there was a lot of milk spilt into that blood. I thought they were pakeha when I first saw them. I'm not sure why someone saying they look like skinny white boys should offend you. Especially since that is exactly what they do look like.

      @Bello Gubbai bro. Tf is your issue? Whether you like them or not, they have Maori blood in them. You gonna go tell his dad that he's created fake Maori's? The Maori language and history was literally on it's way to being forgotten and pushed a side. These "kids" decided they wanted to help shine a light on it and fuck heads like you try to destroy the good they are accomplishing. Who knows, in 10 years maori culture will actually be celebrated and looked up to thanks to kids like this instead of forgotten forever.
