About
Arghoslent (meaning "Slave of the Universe" in Ancient Greek) is an American melodic death metal band from Oakton, Virginia, formed in mid-1990. While acclaimed in the metal underground for their traditional metal-influenced brand of galloping riffs and bluegrass-style guitar leads, the band's white supremacist lyrics have been the source of extensive criticism. Arghoslent's primary lyrical themes include historical racism, apologia for the transatlantic slave trade, medieval warfare, eugenics, imperialism, and European genocide efforts against Native Americans.
Multiple sources, including the Southern Poverty Law Center, The Daily Beast, and Vice magazine have classified Arghoslent as white power music. The band's music was removed from streaming services and online retailers such as iTunes beginning in 2014.
