There is a lot of hidden confirmation or rejection even in the short answers, and the articles are not bad, I am not sure why "F" is embarrassed about that article, it is knowledgeable and shows a Traditional Satanist perspective with which most people are not acquainted, and which shows the truth of the matter when it comes to the distorted "mainstream" occultism based on Jewish mysticism that predominates today, still.<br /><br />-PelagiusAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144884798481429596.post-31912920412258815852017-02-15T15:56:48.244-08:002017-02-15T15:56:48.244-08:00@Borderline:
Ugh, if you read old fanzines you...@Borderline:<br /><br />Ugh, if you read old fanzines you'll run into this and such debates endlessly, "we" spent quite a lot of time bickering about what was true black metal and what was not and whether something was another subgenre or not and if they were actually even "valid" so to say. I do refer to this occasionally on my write-ups and yeah, Arkham's response of black metal needing to be Satanic is valid, otherwise it simply isn't black metal. Hence why all the pagan and viking and so on - metals that often do sound exactly like black metal were born. As for black metal can't be melodic or have synths, that's just poppycock and you're misreading him a little bit; he does say "...The music is not important here..." and later "..for me B.M. can't have a synth or shity melodic parts..." which is just a statement of his personal preferences there. Retconning everything that "sounds" black metal but is not Satanic is "convenient" but ultimately a bit questionable still as earliest users of the term Bethlehem and Thy Serpent slightly later had their own interpretations of what it constitutes, TS's definition being closer to this.<br /><br />I'm kind of weary of the whole debate but it is understandable it should rise time and again and I for convenience's sake tend to brush all suitable under the black metal umbrella and just call some of it "black" metal and so forth. For example almost all NSBM is not proper black metal, nor are a big part of Polish bands as they focus on pagan themes. You sort of know eventually if something is "real black metal" or not. to end super-helpfully! :DVelkaarnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07670411364300686209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144884798481429596.post-91036326273822804312017-02-15T01:04:36.220-08:002017-02-15T01:04:36.220-08:00I've read this zine today, and the most intere...I've read this zine today, and the most interesting thing about it for me was the interview with Arkham, it got me thinking. <br />He was asked about the limits between Dark and Black Metal and his response was that BM has to be Satanic, and if it isn't - the band isn't playing BM but Dark Metal which Arkham is. It's just interesting how he put it, that BM can't be melodic or have synths. So, according to him Melodic Black Metal (epic, symphonic, pagan/heathen/viking/celtic, folk BM, black/doom, gothic BM, progressive BM, avant-garde BM, industrial BM, ambient/BM, atmospheric BM, dungeon synth/BM and so on) isn't BM at all but a different genre, Dark Metal? That's a weird way to look at it. So, I'm not a BM fan, I'm Dark Metal fan? :D What do you think about all this?<br /><br />For me, BM can be two main sub-types - either it's melodic or it's brutal. But many bands play styles which are both, or are black mixed with other genres - which makes everything not so simple to cathegorize.Borderline1991https://www.blogger.com/profile/04605006439986747016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8144884798481429596.post-45076554821504440192013-01-01T09:46:57.069-08:002013-01-01T09:46:57.069-08:00@Dodon:
