The amount of people that don't list Black Sabbath or Led Zepplin is just shocking, given that those two bands are the founding bands of the hard rock genre, and almost all rock today draws inspiration from them.

You are correct, but it's still a Patton band now, at least that EP.
If there was a style Pattoncore, then Dog Fashion Disco would count too, even though they don't have hi. Serious, they sound just like Mr. Bungle.

My Mum's cousin was the drummer in King Crimson. Thats my claim to fame.

Haha. Touche.
Although if 'Skrewdriver' and Combat 18 are shining examples of the Masterrace, and comparing them to degenerates like Sir Ian MacKellen, Rabbi Lionel Blue and Stephen Fry are degenerates, then sign me up for the Denegerates, please :D
I'm guessing you are a troll.

Man, Nazis have some crappy taste in music. I just downloaded some of those songs. Nevermind the fact that the lyrics are morally reprehensible, but the music itself is terrible. Those guys really need to learn how to play their instruments. I don't think I heard more than 3 chords in any of those songs.

The BBC snuck into a BNP party after their Red White and Blue carnival, and they were all singing SA Marching Tunes. They're not Nazis, though, you understand.
