Understood.
I was way more curious why you hit the like button on their pics.
Thought maybe you had some opinion to share about their ideas considering your knowledge base.

Well, part of it is the neo-pagan or satanist thing, which is a discussion for the Lobby, not here. I think you're basically right that it's a way rebellious youth are expressing themselves, their alienation, whatever. I just find it very interesting that it's these peaceful, prosperous countries where music and imagery of violence and depression is most popular. The string of Norwegian Metal pix wasn't exactly an ode to joy. Compare that to music coming out of African or Latin American countries torn by famine and war.

I find the neo pagan thing interesting, them wanting to reclaim Norse heritage, the satanist thing seems a bit misdirected.
Seems kids from middle and upper middle class suburbs in the USA have also always needed to find ways to get away from their safe boring upbringing.
Some/most of Charlie Manson's girls for instance.
