Forgotten Woods - Race of Cain (2007)

Disclaimer: I do not know if Forgotten Woods was among the Norwegian Black Metal groups from the early 1990s who were also neo-Nazis but, I mean, there's a pretty solid chance they were. That whole scene, you know. I only posted this cover because the image is striking to me, it looks like it might be taken from an old movie (early 20th century) but not one that I have identified. Also the girl looks like someone I knew back in high school so maybe that's why I find the image so eye-catching.

Well, Neige from Alcest joined them in 2007 so for me it's a red flag :/
EDIT : you can check the lyrics, especially the last track, there : https://www.metal-archives.com/albums/Forgotten_Woods/Race_of_Cain/158445
What a surprise, another nazi band he played with...
- Yeah, I kind of figured. Like, just the fact that it's a band from that scene is a pretty big red flag. It's not really my kind of music anyway tbh I just like the cover.
  
  To be fair a minority of Black Metal bands are nazi/sketchy, but it's not small enough that someone can go blindly.
  But there are some really great bands in this genre so it would be a shame to dismiss the whole genre.
