DISSECTION - Jon Nödtveidt verstorben!

[Satariel]

Jon Nödtveidt, seines Zeichens Gründer und Mastermind der schwedischen Band Dissection, ist tot. Jon Nödtveidt beging letzte Woche in einem Vorort von Stockholm Selbstmord. Dissection lösten sich am 23.5. 2006 auf und spielten am 24. Juni 2006 ihre Abschiedsshow in Stockholm, da laut Jon Nödtveidt „the ending chapter“ mit ihrem aktuellen Album „Reinkaos“ erreicht worden sei. Dissection beeinflussten in ihrer 18 jährigen Geschichte eine Menge Bands, und waren 1994 nach einer verbüssten Gefängnisstrafe von Jon Nödtveidt nach 6 Jahren wieder aktiv geworden. Einer der wirklich Großen, aber auch einer der umstrittensten Musiker, der Black Metal Szene hat sich verabschiedet, wir werden sein Gedenken immer mit Respekt behandeln…
Jon Nödtveidt (*28. Juni 1975; † 16. August 2006)


Statement von der offiziellen HP:

As rumours have started to spread we feel obliged to confirm Jon Nödtveidt\'s death.
Jon Nödtveidt was a man who lived his life according to his convictions and True Will. A couple of days ago he chose to end his life by his own hands. As a true Satanist he led his life in the way he wanted and ended it when he felt that he had fulfilled his self-created destiny. Not everyone will have understanding or acceptance for his personal path in this life and beyond, but all must respect his choice.

Those of us who have met him in his last days can assure that he was more focussed, happier and stronger than ever. It is our full conviction that he left this world of lies with a scornful laughter, knowing that he had fulfilled everything that he had set up for himself to accomplish. The empty space that he leaves behind will be filled with the dark essence that he manifested through his life and black-magical work. His legacy and Luciferian Fire will live on through those few who truly knew him and appreciated his work for what it really was and still is. As our brother\'s goal in life and death never was to \"Rest in Peace\", we will instead wish him victories in all battles to come, until the Acosmic Destiny has been fulfilled.

For the glory of the Dark Gods and the Wrathful Chaos!
