Gaylord is a black metal project known for its unapologetically confrontational style and politically charged themes. The one-man band, often shrouded in anonymity, has made a name for itself within the extreme metal scene through a distinctive melding of raw black metal with a lyrical focus that aggressively challenges right-wing nationalism and the various socio-political issues embedded within the genre.

Gaylord's work, characterized by such provocatively titled releases as "The Black Metal Scene Needs to Be Destroyed" and "Barbarism Supreme: The Prevailing Age of Unrelenting Annihilation of Abhorrent Nationalism," showcases not only a commitment to the sonic intensity of black metal but also an intellectual rigor that seeks to dismantle the ideologies that have long been controversial within the scene. The project's recent output includes "Crown of Joy (a Sublime Sun Thriving Amongst Suicidal Stars)" and "Wings of the Joyful," which continue to push the boundaries of the genre both musically and thematically, cementing Gaylord's place as a controversial yet significant voice in the modern metal landscape.
