Either I am to dumb to use the search function or KANWULF/ASH from NARGAROTH hasn't been mentioned so far.
(Kanwulf)
René Wagner aka Kanwulf (later changed to "Ash") from German Black Metal band
Nargaroth is kind of infamous for some truely hilarous antics, drama creating and lying.
For a very long time he claimed that Nargaroth as a band has been formed around 1989/1990 or 1996 which would have made Nargaroth on of the very first Black Metal bands in Germany. Although he has been called out for this lie over all the years he only started admitting it in the 2010s. He claimed that his first two demos ( "Herbstleyd" and "Orke") have been recorded and released between 1991 and 1996. Most times he stuck with 1996 as release year. In fact they have been recorded and released in 1998.
He also lied about being a close friend of Varg Vikernes (Burzum) and that they both had exchanged several letters for years. Kanwulf claimed several times to have been the one who sent Varg a lighter which Varg allegedly used for the burning of the Fantoft church (Varg never got convicted for this church burning). Varg commented once about this topic stating that he doesn't know anyone named Kanwulf.
Non Black Metal fans may know Nargaroth's most famous song "
Black Metal ist Krieg" from the album with the same namen and which quickly turned into a meme and has been mocked countless times. Speaking about the album "Black Metal ist Krieg" and the earlier album "Herbstleyd": there have been several bitchfights between Kanwulf and other Black Metal musicians about Kanwulf stealing riffs for his band.
One his most well known bitchfight was with German Black Metal band MYSTIC CIRCLE. To be fair that band got ridiculed by everyone because of their fantasy cosplay dressing shit. But of course there is more to the drama: Insults and threats between both bands have been exchanged through interviews until Kanwulf had enough and tried to raid a gig of MYSTIC CIRCLE. But he got denied entrance by a bouncer and so he went home again. Because that's what Black Metal warriors do.
When the internet started to become a thing it didn't take long for a now defunct website (nargaroth.shaddai.something something) to start and to call out all the lies Kanwulf has told over all the years which of course started more bithfights.
Here is a blogspot site from 2011 that covers some of the early drama (in German and English).
1999 Nargaroth played a concert in Erlangen (GER) where Kanwulf started to use a gas pistol and to shoot into the audiance which sparked the police to show up and fights broke lose in the audiance and on stage.
Also in 1999 Kanwulf showed up on national TV in a talk show dressed as a gothic faggot where he was crying about how society is not accepting him when dressing in skirts and make up. He also cried about his roommate being ignorate and not cleaning up the flat both were sharing.

Unfortunately all videos have been deleted from YouTube and I only could find this shitty picture.
(Ronald "Wolf" Möbus)
Ronald "Wolf" Möbus is the older brother of Hendrik "JFN" Möbus. Both have been involved with infamous German (NS) Black Metal band ABSURD. Wolf is also linked to his local Nazi scene, is into fighting sports and a father.
What did Kanwulf do? Started insulting Wolf, calling him a faggot and a jew, threatend to kidnap and kill Wolf's kids and to show up at his place with a Panzerfaust.
What did Wolf do? He whacked the shit out of Kanwulf at a little Metal festival (Festungs Open Air) in front of Germany's Black Metal high society.
There was once an online forum which belonged to Eternity Records. Kanwulf showed up there with different accounts praising his music, his genius and defending his actions. The admins of the forum detected that all accounts originated from the same PC, located in a university in Leipzig and it was known that Kanwulf was studying there at that time.
The forum is long defunct now and I couldn't find any screenshots anymore.
2007 Nargaroth released the album "Semper Fidelis". The album got also released in limited special box with extra merchandise stuff and some "personal items" that Kanwulf chose from his own stuff. It didn't take long for fans to report about these "special free gimmicks". Tissues with Kanwulf's goo, T-Shirts with Kanwulf's goo, patches with Kanwulf's goo, goo everywhere.
At that time he also dropped his name "Kanwulf" and started to distance himself from Black Metal (while releasing another Black Metal of course). A video showed up on YouTube where Kanwulf is sitting in his home and crying about the state of Black Metal. How noone is understanding him and his art and noone deserves his music and shit. He then went out in his backyard and burned his Black Metal records, some of them very rare, very expensive. Later he realised what he did and started crying again about his lost records and begged fans to send him their records so that he can rebuild his record collection.
Kanwulf got constantly mocked for his behaviour so he deceided to leave to Germany. He started to sell all his stuff, like
all his stuff, his furniture, his t-shirts, his remaining records, everything on Facebook and eBay to collect money. When he got enough money he started to travel around the world and settled in South America.
Nargaroth has a large fanbase in South America so he spent some years there, got married, got divorced and got bored. So he started to sent e-mails to fellow German Black Metal musicians like Wolf and Unhold (Luror/W.T.C. Productions; also a musician of Absurd) and asked for settling things so that he could return to Germany.
When he came back to Germany things had settled down and he started to play concerts again. Everything went smooth. Until ...
... he started a gay Black Metal bodybuilding rocker club, the G.B.M.C.
Manly man with muscles and with hoods writing manifestos about "being a warrior" on Facebook, hiking like boyscouts and showing up on concerts looking bad ass.
The mockery started again and at some point Antifa groups got involved and doxxed most of the members. Why did they dox them? Because Nazis.
This led to Kanwulf crying again and fleeing Germany, again, and the G.B.M.C. faded into obscurity.
He now lives somewhere in the USA on a farm and does the Varg Vikernes experience: Uploading videos on YouTube where he is sitting in the woods and talking about survival, ranting about Black Metal and being a man.
