Was lucky to catch TDB in Haarlem in 2012. The opening band couldn't play so I got to see a full set under the influence of psychoactive materials. One of the best shows I've ever seen and Selim was the REAL DEAL. Amazing guitarist, composer, arranger and performer. Still underrated.
I used to work with him at a record store when we were both 18 year old kids. He was a timid, nerdy, friendly guy. You would have never guessed. I used to always put Mariah Carey CD's on. Looking back now that must have felt like torture to him LOL.
Top man! Geniet van de dood, je hebt een prachtig werk achtergelaten, Selim. Medelijden heb je niet nodig, dus je krijgt alleen bewondering van mijn kant. Tot in de eeuwige chaos, geniet van het avontuur.
Eterna fuente de inspiración, admiración y respeto a la visión y comprensión que tuvo uno de los últimos grandes genios de la música respecto de la falsa e injusta ilusión denominada vida. Mi mas absoluto e irrestricto respeto hacia un ser sublime cuya voluntad y hambre de no estancamiento supero las barreras impuestas por la enclaustrante tiranía de lo material.

RIP Selim 34 was too young, even though you felt the time was yours. You and your wonderful music will be missed. :-( May you find what you're looking for in the world to come. May you go in peace and love.
I'm forever thankful that I did get to meet and briefly hang out with him at a gig in San Francisco. He was doing double duty that night playing for Devils Blood and Watain but was also hanging out by himself at TDB's merch stand. Very very nice man. Chastised me for making fun of my drunk friend 😂
😆 I sometimes wonder about the process to transform his place back into a normal apartment. Probably had to use 2 coats of paint !!!! I wish I could have met Selim.
True artistic expression comes from the vein of katiharism Once this well has been tapped dry, an individual may seem no reason to go on Mind altering drugs don't help or the legacy that the greats are only remembered when they are departed Sad but true!
@@zeushgoatc7004 I've noticed that too how so many great artists are only appreciated after they die. I hope Selim knows how many people have been moved by his music. I hope he found peace.
I respect your reply. Much more intelligent than my post. I like Metal from Black Sabath, Slayer ,InFlames to everything in Between. I was surprised at how The Devil's Blood is Rock and pretty far from Metal. But it was the blood on stage and stuff I don't get. Sorry, I am removing my post.
why does it say, his cause of death is not known, when its that obvious that he ended his life... how exactly is another question. great venom sticker, though...
i don't think you understand. in the context of an autopsy the "how exactly" IS the cause. as an example i'll use an opioid OD. Blood & urine will be collected & sent out for toxicology report to identify what drugs are present. the opioid-drug is not the cause itself but it is the catalyst. typically the cause will be respiratory depression & cardiac arrest along with listing the substances found. Listing the cause as a "drug overdose" or "suicide" doesn't say anything, worse it's an assumption which an autopsy could rule out entirely. There's a mini-docu interviewing the mother & sister, there's also an interview with the sister in some Dutch newspaper/magazine that might still be out there, but it is in Dutch. *To clarify, in no way am I suggesting SL was murdered or addicted to opioids. Should be obvious but there's a lot of stupid people out there.
@MeLikePoopies As these are crucifixes it does change the meaning of it as it's not St. Peter on any of those crosses - it's fucking Jesus. Thus it's no longer a cross of St. Peter - thus removing the humility before christ part.
Choosing your own time of death is a strong choice, but only if you choose it with a fully healthy brain. This guy's brain is certainly not working as is should. Major errors. Hearing voices and self-mutilation, a combination of both schizophrenia and depression, maybe even a borderline personality disorder. Theistic satanism is just as bad as every other organised religion. The only rational approach is an atheistic view. Sure there are forces in the universe, on a microscale as well as a macroscale. But to me these forces are no consious forces. This guy was just a mental patient. Anyone who thinks like him is just as mentally disturbed as he was...
+Raymond Reijerkerk that's really not for you to decide. you're being intensely ethnocentric, for one, and you must not have paid much attention to the video because everything he shares is very sophisticated and intelligent. conversely, your judgement is unspeakably ugly.
kissakissa I agree. As one of Urfausts albums says "The Mind Is The Devil". I must disagree though that you must wait for a certain age......once the decision is made, you make your path to enlightenment and once you've achieved what you wanted to achieve in this life, every minute after is a waste as he himself said. But everyone has their opinion. I cannot take that away from anyone.
@Raymond Reijerkerk I disagree with you. I believe he is fully aware of how he thinks and feels and to diagnose him with those mental illness's based on a RUclips video is poor taste on your part.
This poker soul has met the Lord and I can promise you that he regrets refusing the gift of Christ’s sacrifice made for him and anyone who truly believes and accepts Jesus as their savior. So talented, but he believed the lies of Satan who is a liar and knows no truth. It’s truly sad that (if he died a satanist) he will spend eternity in separation from God where his Worm is never satiated.
Your a fucking idiot. To deny yourself any human experience is insanity. Why would a loving God put us here on earth then tell us to experience nothing outside of his box. Your a fucking lemming like the rest so follow your brood of the cliff.

I talked to him using Facebook, the last days, and i must say, he is a reaaaaaly cool, down to earth, open minded Musician. I really respect him!
you are out of this world in the negative sense
@@tham4378 thanks!
I had a few exchanges with him on Facebook as well and he was always thoughtful and gracious enough to respond.
