What makes you listen to black metal?
Hey, I'm curious to know what makes you people listen to black metal? how did you started listening to it?
1st black metal song you listened? Is there any band that as finished that you wish them to come back?
What do you think about the future of black metal?
I love all in black metal, the ideas, the atmosphere, the vocals, drums etc... I started listening to black metal when a friend of mine gave me gorgoroth - pentagram to listen. I loved it and i went right over to a store here and bought the album, since then I have bought many Black metal albums from bands like immortal, nokturnal mortum, darkthrone, carpathian forest and many more. the 1st song i listened was "under the pagan megalith" (awsome track from pentagram).
I am really excited about the idea of immortal re-union, they are one of my favorite bands, I love all their albums (but specialy pure holocaust
)
About the future, i think the good bands will always remain but new bands are needed and i don't see excelent new bands.
Here in Portugal we have bands like Lux Ferre, In Thy Flesh, Opus Draconis, Corpus Christii and more, in my opinion they are great but they don't have support to go on and this is happening all over the world.
Please post your opinions and stories
Cheers!

I know that you will say " 3 yEaRz d1fferenC3" but it doesnt matter. just like you already have a wife. And Lyrically I do not enjoy black metal, I hate it lyrically cuz: 1.I am Christian(althought bands like Beherit are often played on my comp) 2.They scream so you dont understand them anyway 3.The best black metal made kids who were less than 20 so their level of lyrics is not that high

Written by Guest on 24.05.2008 at 22:47 Dude calm down, he's just stating a fact. That's fine if you like Dimmu, but it's true that black metal at it's purest form isn't the sound of Dimmu. I know, you don't care, but it's just a fucking fact, that's all, you're allowed to like what you want, we won't shove a hockey stick up your ass for it.

lol, whenever i see this thread i picture some guy named "frostbitten_wolf92" replying 'the atmosphere of grimness... from the cold of the frozen northernmost fjord in which no life survives, only death and grimness dwell...' well, the 'blackest' thing i listen to is Ensiferum, used to listen to Meads of Asphodel and Catamenia a little, but i kind of gave up on them. once gave Immortal a listen, but sounded too raw for me lol. probably the reason i'm not keen on black metal.

I used to hate Black Metal. But im a Die Hard Metalhead and i love Melodic Black Metal bands (Viking Metal, Folk Black, Symphonic Black, etc.) like Septic Flesh or Dimmu Borgir so i try to listen to Pure Black Metal and i like it but just some bands and some songs of them. For example i like Enslaved but Gorgoroth is a band i just can't stand. Anyway i love the fact that they are true with their feelings, and that they speak of things they really believe. at difference than Death that usally speak just of nonsence violence, and have stupid lyrics even when i like Death Metal music more than Black Metal. I believe in God. But this is one of the mein reasons of why i like BM and their Satanic themes. If i believe in God, I believe in Satan. Both are part of ourselves, Both live inside of ourselves. And you have to understand your Evil instead than just ignore it like almost everyone do; in order to control it. Black Metal is like a Catharsis of your Evilness.

Written by Guest on 18.10.2009 at 05:41 You also seem to like spamming on threads in an epically awesome way. Now back on topic, black metal was the first sub-genre of metal, I have gotten into more ambient stuff and funeral doom stuff as well. For me I love the atmosphere of BM, the content and just whats behind it.

Black metal was the last major sub-genre of metal that I got into, but nowadays it's the one I find most interesting. I love the organic quality of black metal. I'm especially interested in BM bands that combine folk traditions into their music like Windir, Negura Bunget, and Drudkh.

Lisning To Black Metal for me its like drinking Water !! i mean i drink black metal =P ..well i lisen to black metal over than 10 years now .. i heard that people started with iron maiden ,pantera ,metallica ect ..but that wasent the case for me !! i started with immortal specialy there song ( unholy forces of evil ) well and then right way lisned to zyklon and windir and Sacramentum , Old wainds , beherit , and so on ... Talking about the new waves of black metal in my opinion its all going in the wrong direction !! there is no original bands anymore unfortunly ..still there are few but i guess cant bring back the old glorious times !! every band nowadays want to bring attention more than produce the music itself and the lyrics ( my baaad ) its all about an empty circle no sense at all ...is not like the way i lisned to windir's lyrics ..its all missed up now .. Just to notice im black metal fan but i always prefer it when its mixed with ( symphonic ,orchestral , doom , melodic folk and atmospheric influnces ) and still raw black metal pleased to lisen ^^ ...

I am anti religion for the most part, so I can appreciate the lyrics. But I do like clean production.

I just like the overall sound, especially the raspy vocals. The lyrics are always interesting because they can be looked at more objectively then just gore. I also really like the tremolo picking, fast tempos and blast beats.

Bah, I find it hard to believe that people can take the lyrics of any genre or music so seriously. I listen to music because I like the sound of it, period. I'll listen to Deathspell Omega and then go listen to Antestor or something. The message may be interesting, but at the end of the day it's all just words to me. I play guitar, not professionally but I do play, and I will always make one thing clear: I play music for me. I don't play for someone elses entertainment, I always play for my own. If I stop enjoying what I'm doing I won't continue at the expense of myself for the gain of others. To me that is what 'selling out' means. So ignore the lyrics if you have to and just blast merrily along.

Black Metal closely mimics the intensity and beauty of my thoughts and emotions, It cuts the outside world off and let's me drift off to whatever place I'd rather be.
