Prussian Blue was an American white nationalist pop pre-teen duo formed in early 2003 by April Gaede, mother of Lynx Vaughan Gaede and Lamb Lennon Gaede, fraternal twins born on June 30, 1992, in Bakersfield, California. The twins referred to the Holocaust as a myth〔 and their group was described as racist and white supremacist in nature.〔〔 Lynx and Lamb were about 14 when they decided that they wanted to cease touring. In 2011, in an interview with ''The Daily'', the twins renounced their previous politics. Lamb was quoted saying, “I’m not a white nationalist anymore. My sister and I are pretty liberal now.” ==History== In an interview with ''Vice Magazine'', the twins stated, "Part of our heritage is German American. Also our eyes are blue, and Prussian Blue is just a really pretty color." They also remarked, "there is also the discussion of the lack of 'Prussian Blue' coloring (Zyklon B residue) in the so-called gas chambers in the concentration camps. We think it might make people question some of the inaccuracies of the 'Holocaust' myth." This is a reference to the claims〔(The Non-Existent “Auschwitz Gas Chambers” of Deborah Lipstadt, Part I )〕〔(Germar Rudolf: The Rudolf Report )〕 made by many Holocaust deniers that the Holocaust either could not have happened or that the number of victims could have been far lower. Lynx and Lamb Gaede first performed together by singing at a white nationalist festival called "Eurofest" in 2001. They began learning how to play instruments in 2002 (Lamb plays the guitar and Lynx plays the violin). In the same year they appeared on a VH1 special called ''Inside Hate Rock''. In 2003, they were featured in a Louis Theroux BBC documentary, entitled ''Louis and the Nazis'', on racism and white supremacy in the United States. Lamb, Lynx, and their mother, April Gaede, also appeared in the low-budget 2003 horror film ''Dark Walker''.〔(http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0373782/fullcredits ) ''IMDb.com''〕 The twins recorded and released a debut CD at the end of 2004 called ''Fragment of the Future'' (Resistance Records) which had both an acoustic folk-rock and a bubblegum pop sound. A year later, they recorded their second album, ''The Path We Chose'', which has a more traditional rock sound including both acoustic and electric guitar. Most of the songs on the second album lack the racial and white supremacist overtones of ''Fragment of the Future'' and are about more mainstream subject matter, like boys, crushes, and dating. On October 20, 2005, Prussian Blue was featured in a critical segment on ABC's ''Primetime''.〔(Young Singers Spread Racist Hate ), abcnews.go.com, Oct. 20, 2005〕 A DVD, ''Blonde Hair Blue Eyes'', featuring three music videos and some live performances, was released in 2005. The pair toured the United States in 2005. On August 22, 2006, they were again featured in a critical segment on ABC's ''Primetime''. The twins moved with their mother and stepfather, Mark Harrington, and their younger half-sister, Dresden, from Bakersfield to Kalispell in Montana, in 2006; in their mother's words, Bakersfield was "not white enough." Some of their new neighbors did not welcome them; many city residents passed out flyers warning people of the family's views, and signs proclaiming "No Hate Here" appeared on some windows around the town. Some of the people who passed out flyers received threatening letters from members of out-of-state white supremacist organizations. The Montana Human Rights Network planned a rally in Kalispell to protest against the family's racist views.〔〔 〕 The twins toured Europe in the summer of 2007, performing at events for white nationalist organizations. They also appeared as guests on ''The Political Cesspool''. As of early 2009, the band's website and MySpace page are no longer operational. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Prussian Blue」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
