Am I the only one who listens to Black Metal here?
It seems so...I dont really see anyone else discuss BM bands here...
So, is it only me? If not, lets discuss BM in this thread ![]()

I don't mind the heavy stuff but I have no idea what would be considered black metal.
If it's all growly and they don't enunciate I'll pass. |

Is black metal like that time Korn got a bunch of rappers to portray them in one of their videos?

Wikipedia has it defined pretty well,
Quote:
Dimmu Borgir would qualify for Black Metal, but their later stuff has become more mainstream and therefore less creative...but I still like them. Some of my favorite are Gehenna, Emperor, Immortal, Mistur, and Windir. All the best bands in this genre, imo, are scandinavian, so it recieves little to no exposure in the US. Some examples (cant seem to get the embed code to work) http://youtu.be/EBh2-oqtXoo http://youtu.be/U4G0mFGWssQ http://youtu.be/wCA0ZCeuLvM http://youtu.be/i_jV1O6UEYM |

I like some black metal, but not a whole bunch. I like 1349, Kovenant, Thorns, some Emperor, Death (they're death metal but I love them) and the black metal influenced bands like Dimmu and Cradle.
I dig some Bathory, Dissection and a few others but not enough that I'd know albums I could always listen to. |

Use to be really into the scene years ago.
Not so much anymore. Most bands are just clones. Still listen to a handful of bands. Mostly the classics. |

Could someone explain the differences between Death Metal and Black Metal, using examples that actually make sense.

*Raises Hand*
Started enjoying black metal only a couple of years back, and i think a lot of that had to do with watching Satyricon live. The chills and the abnormal vibe i experienced when they played "Mother North" had me rooted at the spot, scared shitless, and still wanting more and more of it. That being said, i enjoy the drony-ness and the constant pummel of true Black Metal the most, although the new wave of post-black metal bands have also made the genre highly accessible, and dare i say it, a bit catchy and trendy as well. Bands that i dig include Satyricon, 1349, Insomnium, Agalloch, Behemoth, Dornenreich, Fen, Drudkh, Enslaved, Gorgoroth, Ihsahn, Inquisition, Marduk, Mayhem, Melechesh, Nachymystium, Negura Bunget, Rotting Christ, Wolves In The Throne Room |

"Mushroomhead" is not Black Metal, it's "Nu-Metal", or pop metal or whatever.
Listening to a new CD I found online recently, Foudre Noure - The Dark Gods. Really cool stuff, its a sort of "space-rock black metal". Very atmospheric. |

Just gonna add that every metal band can be placed in one of six subgenres: Traditional Heavy Metal, Progressive Metal, Power Metal, Thrash Metal, Death Metal and Alternative Metal.
Everything else overcomplicates the fuck out of it. As far as I'm concerned Black, 'Post-Black' and any other 'true Norweigen' nonsense etc would all go under 'Death Metal'. |

When I was in Sweden last year I popped into a "rock" music store. My God there were so many abstract genres, pretty sure 99% of them were made up.
Bunch of ridiculous nonsense like "Screamgore" and "Doomstep". |

I disagree. There is a very big difference between Black and Death metal, Death is more distorted, and fast paced, basically, like Thrash only with growls, while Black is more melodic, slower paced, usually with a different vocal style. While Death metal has low, bass heavy growls, Black metal tends to have very "high" screams. A more simplified analogy is to say that Death Metal is a heavier Thrash metal with distorted/growl vocals, while Black Metal is a depressive reflection of power metal. I would say the genres are, Trash, Power, Death, Black and Doom. I see "nu- metal" as more relevant to pop music, than to any genre of metal. |

I can see how the different genres could sound the same to somebody who doesn't listen to metal, or didnt listen to it for a long enough time, but to somebody who follows the genre, there are very distinct and strong differences between these basic "core" genres.

Fucking hate your posts. Can never tell if this is some kinda sarcastic shot at me, or legit. Tell me, and know that your answer will determine the outcome of whether or not you will get a green rep dot or a red one. :foc:

Was playing it straight. The idea was more that the kind of people who need 9 million subgenres actually are pretentious douchebags.
