Lamb and Lynx Gaede, the dimpled tween rockers whose ****-themed pop band, Prussian Blue, sparked an exuberant media firestorm several years back have grown up — and had a change of heart.
“I’m not a white nationalist anymore,†Lamb told The Daily in an exclusive interview, the twins’ first in five years. “My sister and I are pretty liberal now.â€
“Personally, I love diversity,†Lynx seconded. “I’m stoked that we have so many different cultures. I think it’s amazing and it makes me proud of humanity every day that we have so many different places and people.â€

Prussian Blue was never a presence on the pop charts and only played small venues. But for a brief time in the mid-2000s, Lamb and Lynx were seemingly everywhere — “the new face of hate,†as one news program put it. They appeared on “Primetime Live†and in a number of other media oulets, including GQ (where I profiled them in 2006).
[...]
Now, the Gaede twins say they have changed their views and attribute their earlier political pronouncements to youthful naivete. “My sister and I were home-schooled,†Lynx pointed out. “We were these country bumpkins. We spent most of our days up on the hill playing with our goats.â€
[...]
The twins’ mother, April Gaede, who has been a prominent member of racist fringe groups like the National Alliance and the National Vanguard, brought up her daughters with the ethos of white nationalism — a mix of racial pride, anti-immigrant hostility, Holocaust denial and resistance to the encroachment of “muds,†i.e., Jews and nonwhites.
But after enrolling in public school and moving to Montana — a predominantly white state, albeit one with a decidedly hippie-ish vibe — Lamb and Lynx decided they simply no longer believed what they’d been taught.
