Arghoslent
Arghoslent is an American death metal band from Oakton, Virginia[1] formed in mid-1990. While acclaimed in the metal underground for their trad metal-influenced brand of galloping riffs, the band's lyrics have been the source of much controversy[2] for advocating white supremacist views of the Trans-Atlantic slave trade, the Holocaust,[3] and European genocide efforts against Native Americans, among other atrocities.
