Their lead singer/bassist Tomás Enrique Araya was born in Chile. So he gets some kinda irony points if he talks about being white. Unless white and hispanic are interchangeable in a racist song? It gets pretty confusing.
I personally don't think they're legitimately *anything* that they're selling to you with their lyrics and subjects and whatnot. I've seen video footage of them talking about it, how Rick Reuben (the real guy) was the one pushing them to work the Satan or Nazi angles or something, cause it was good for business. If I remember right, there's some footage of them talking about it in some documentary about Satanism in metal music.
I wouldn't believe anything out of those guys' mouths, during a song or not. Sneaky folk, those Slayer guys.
