Gorgoroth – Sign of an Open Eye Lyrics 16 years ago
I agree that its a reference to freedom.I agree that somehow Satan is the symbolism of freedom for the Christians.I will also agree that Gaahl is using Christianity (The Satan) to pass his messages.Nevertheless there are couple of things that you might don't know.
1.Gaahl is not practitioner of any kind of Satanism (see wikipedia).Gaahl is practitioner of Nordic Shamanism.
2.Lucifer is just an interpretation of the Testaments:

Isaiah 4:12

"πῶς ἐξέπεσεν ἐκ τοῦ οὐρανοῦ ὁ ἑωσφόρος ὁ πρωὶ ἀνατέλλων συνετρίβη εἰς τὴν γῆν ὁ ἀποστέλλων πρὸς πάντα τὰ ἔθνη"

"quomodo cecidisti de caelo lucifer qui mane oriebaris corruisti in terram qui vulnerabas gentes"

אֵיךְ נָפַלְתָּ מִשָּׁמַיִם הֵילֵל בֶּן־שָׁחַר נִגְדַּעְתָּ לָאָרֶץ חֹולֵשׁ עַל־גֹּויִם

According to "The Brown, Driver, Briggs Hebrew and English Lexicon" original Lucifer quote should be translated as: The one who Shines,and not the one who Brings the Dawn

The original text was talking about a Babylonian king.
