Prussian Blue's Fragment of the Future album cover

Prussian Blue is a controversial white nationalist folk pre-teen duo formed in early 2003 by Lynx and Lamb Gaede, twin girls brought up in the United States. Lynx plays violin and Lamb plays guitar. They recorded and released a debut CD at the end of 2004 called 'Fragment of the Future'.

Prussian Blue toured the United States in 2005. They have appeared on television with Louis Theroux of the BBC and were featured in a critical segment on ABC's Primetime on October 20, 2005. Lynx and Lamb are currently in the studio recording a follow-up CD (untitled as of yet) that is expected to be released in late 2005.

The group has strong ties to the National Vanguard organization, a white nationalist splinter group.

According to an article from ABC News, the girls are homeschooled by their mother, April ("who no longer lives with the twins' father"). The article further discusses the twins' maternal grandfather, who wears a swastika belt buckle, uses the Nazi symbol on his truck and even registered it as a cattle brand. Though the family was originally located in Bakersfield, California the twins' mother has reportedly sold their home because she does not consider Bakersfield to be "white" enough.

During their ABC interview, the twins stated that 6 million Jews were not killed during the Holocaust because there were not that many Jews in existence. The two also believe that Adolph Hitler was a good man with some great ideas.

Lyrics and Influences

Prussian Blue's lyrics are laden with phrases and images often used by and otherwise associated with Aryan/Nazi doctrine, i.e. Valhalla, Vinland, . Many of their songs are also dedicated to famous Aryan and neo-Nazi activists, such as Sammy Weaver, Rudolf Hess and Robert Matthews. The previous men are remembered in the song "Sacrifice":

"Rudolph Hess, man of Peace. He wouldn't give up and he wouldn't cease, to give his loyalty to our Cause. Remember him and give a pause.

Robert Matthews knew the Truth. He knew what he had to do. He set an example with Courage so bold. We'll never let that fire grow cold."

Also, their debut single for their second album, titled "The Stranger", is adapted from a poem by Rudyard Kipling, known for his vocal support of white supremacy in many of his writings, most notably voiced in his work "The White Man's Burden".
