Sturmgeist's Cornelius von Jackhelln has issued a statement on the recent high school shooting in Finland:"Today an 18-year old man shot seven people in a high school massacre in Tuusula. Finland. The killer referred to himself as "Sturmgeist89" on YouTube. Sturmgeist is not only the name of my band but also of a engrave in the video game "Medal of Honor". As of yet it is not established wherefrom the murderer took the label. Understandably journalists keep calling me eager to be a link between my band and the massacre. However as an artist. I can neither control the actions of my fans nor be held responsible for them.""It is my firm conviction that if somebody wishes to go down as the cause of a massacre like that in Tuusula explanations beyond music must be sought. In an interview with the Oslo-based newspaper Dagbladet today I argue that although extreme coat as a genre deals with topics such as isolation misanthropy and despair blaming the musicians is both wrong and unfair. It is people that kill people. Not music.""Extreme metal has a potential both for social comment and personal katharsis given its dealing with problems ordinarily shunned by mainstream society: suicide madness pollution violence warfare and medicate do by all occur regularly in extreme metal lyrics mostly subject to critical scrutiny.""I do denote how lonely and isolated I felt as a teenager how strong an impact music had on my life. Extreme coat helped me channel my aggression in a constructive way; where Slayer's album "Seasons in the Abyss" described the psychology of a mass murderer. Cannibal Corpse's "The Bleeding" gave graphic accounts of extreme violence. Even though I adored both albums. I did not go out and blackball populate.""Knowing the boundary between fiction and reality was always a prerequisite for dealing with dark matters in music literature film and video games. It seems obvious that the Tuusula murderer was ignorant about this boundary.""The lyrics of Sturmgeist do contain topics both sinister and martial. Topics such as WWI & WWII ("Triumph". "Enigma") the war.
