KOLBOTN, NORWAY — A Norwegian death metal drummer has accidentally been elected to his local town council.
The front man for the band Darkthrone mistakenly agreed to be on a list of backup representatives and assumed that he'd never be called upon. To ensure this, Glyve "Fenriz" Nagell, posted a picture of him holding his cat and the caption "Please don't vote for me."
Locals loved the low-key campaign and instead he won a position on the council. He'll have to serve as a backup representative for the next four years and is quite unhappy about it, citing how boring it is and the lack of good pay.
