Black metal is a subgenre of heavy metal, that unlike death emtal isn't trying to be as brutal and aggressive as possible, but dark, epic and atmospheric.
A lot of the early bands are from Norway, good stuff like Gorgoroth, Burzum and Immortal.
Anyone else liek?
"If all black metal bands stopped bashing god, then who the hell are they going to bash? It's not as if they're going to write a song about a bad cheeseburger they had and blame it on McDonald's." That actually would be interesting.

I personally found it quite pathetic that the black metal crowd was too fucking retarded to realize black metal is a genre of music, rather than a belief system. See: Christian Black Metal

Black Metal is much like punk. It is a style of music rooted in a general attitude and philosophy. Christian Black Metal is fucking terrible. Not even Christians listen to them. hurr so controversial

For starters, Impaled Northern Moonforest should be mandatory listening. Second, Stalaggh should also be on your list. And Morbid is also essential.

Not really a fan of black metal, but Celtic Frost and early Satyricon are good.

The idea is that black metal usually talks about anti christian stuff. So christian metal in some way was like it they were mocking black metal.
Its like if someone used gregorian chant (usually related to religious music) and make a gregorian chant music about pedophily or about racism. They could, but because gregorian chant is so much used to religious music, it would sounds like if they were bashing religous guys with or something like that.

I'm making a song out of Hildegard von Bingen's "O Viridissima Virga" twisted to be very anti-Christian as we speak, actually
