That's fuckin arrogant.
Very much so, to incorporate its elements is one thing... Like i hate the old grimness "darkest regards" bullshit, and I am a very big black metal fan (minus the black and thrash crossover genres with black metal). I find it hard to be empathetic, just don't understand the appeal behind a metalcore band in denial.
What sort of evolution of black metal are you into? Wolves in the Throne Room style or Shining or... I dunno, Enslaved - Isa? etc
Aye, Wolves, Shining, Velvet Cacoon(Sweet Euphemism for vagina), Xasthur, Striborg, Burzum, Elysian Blaze, Emperor, Enslaved, Mutilation... I could go on for hours.
Why are we discussing black metal on a thread about a Nile/Hate Eternal gig?
Because Black Metal>Death Metal... Hmm this might cause some controversy
