Black Metal

2008-10-06T19:08:44Z

Jewishfanofnsbm: NSBM is NO JOKE. There are hundreds of NSBM bands in the world and they are no more "a joke" than other white power music movements.

'''Black Metal''' is an extreme, and explicitly [[Satan]]ic, anti-[[Christian]], and violent subgenre of [[Heavy metal music]]. Most Black Metal bands have satanic and violent lyrics, though some bands do not take use these themes and tend to focus on fantasy subjects instead. Black Metal was first developed by many different bands from across [[Europe]], but was first popularized by the media attention surrounding several [[Norway|Norwegian]] bands and the various murders and arsons their members were involved in in the early 90's. Since then black metal has gained an underground following with fans and bands appearing all over the world. While less common now, the violence and mayhem that marked the early black metal scene persists to this day, with violence, killings, and vandalism inspired by black metal bands occurring sporadically but not infrequently across the globe.

== History ==

The first wave of black metal was started in early 1980s. Bands like Venom, Bathory, Mercyful Fate and Celtic Frost were developing a heavier and more extreme style of heavy metal.<ref name = "dunn" >Dunn, Sam: Metal: A Headbanger's Journey. 2005.</ref> Bands were strongly fascinated by the occult.<ref name = "kahnharris" >Kahn-Harris, Keith: Extreme metal: Music and culture on the edge. Oxford: Berg, 2007. ISBN 1-84520-399-2.</ref> For example Mercyful Fate's King Diamond belongs to [[Church of Satan]] as well as many other black metal musicians. Black metal genre was named by Venom album named ''Black Metal'',<ref name="murder"/> and nowadays Venom and Bathory have maybe the greatest respect in black metal scene by modern black metal bands.<ref name = "kahnharris" />

Second wave of black metal was born mainly in Norway, by bands such as Mayhem, Burzum, Darkthrone and Emperor.<ref name = "dunn" /> Those band styles were even more extreme than first wave and commonly the term 'black metal' refers just to the second wave. The crimes associated with black metal were mostly part of the second wave rather than the first wave. Nowadays bands like Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth have made black metal almost part of the mainstream.<ref name="dimmu borgir">[http://www.decibelmagazine.com/features/jun2007/dimmuborgir.aspx Dimmu Borgir] Decibel Magazine</ref> However, many old school black metallers claim that modern sounding black metal by symphonic and melodic bands (like Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of Filth) aren't 'true' black metal.<ref name = "amazon" >Haikara, Karl: [http://www.amazon.com/gp/richpub/syltguides/fullview/35IDCE6P5JQOZ So you'd like to... Get into true Norwegian Black] Metal amazon.com.</ref> Despite not being considered "extreme" enough by some, those bands are still very dangerous and satanic.

== Sub genres ==

===Blackened Death Metal===
An even more violent style of black metal, which also combines the vividly graphic depictions of killing that characterize the lyrics of the genre known as [[death metal]] with the music of black metal. The style targets [[Christians]], and openly tells its followers to go out, [[torture]], and kill the entire Christian population, as a means of earning favor with [[Satan]]. This style of Black Metal is sometimes called "War Black Metal" due to a number of the bands fascination with war themes and imagery.

===National Socialist Black Metal===
National Socialist Black Metal (commonly abbreviated as NSBM), is a style of Black Metal that replaces the normal Satanic themes with lyrics glorifying [[nazism]], [[anti-semitism]], [[Aryan]] heritage, [[White nationalism]] and the [[occult]] nature of the [[Third Reich]]. NSBM bands, while often criticising Satanic Black Metal bands for not focusing on [[race|racial issues]], retain the anti-Christian sentiments of normal Black Metal bands.

===Pagan Black Metal===
Many Black Metal bands adopt idealogical tenants of [[Paganism]] as a way of opposing Christianity. Pagan symbols, such as rune script, sunwheels, Celtic crosses, and Thor's hammers frequently adorn Pagan Black Metal bands covers and themes from pre-Christian European mythology permeate their lyrics.

===Christian Black Metal===
Christian Black Metal (often known as Unblack Metal) is a highly controversial style of Black Metal that contains lyrics which attack Satanic ideology, glorify Christianity and are opposed to [[Sin]]. Musically they are similar to secular and Satanic black metal bands. Because of the seeming contradictions between the music and message, Christian Black Metal is not widely accepted by mainstream Christianity or the Black Metal scene at large.

==List of bands==
I added it so parents reading this could get an idea of what names to be wary of when you look on your child's ipod, but it looks like an ugly block of text to me. If some one can think of a more elegant way to present it, that would be great.

That's me, btw [[User:Jewishfanofnsbm|Jewishfanofnsbm]] 16:08, 3 June 2008 (EDT)

:Done. May I suggest alphabetizing? [[User:Learn together|Learn together]] 16:18, 3 June 2008 (EDT)
::Done. [[User:Jewishfanofnsbm|Jewishfanofnsbm]] 16:39, 3 June 2008 (EDT)

== Moving ==

This should be moved under name [[Black metal]] because Black Metal is name of Venom album, and black metal name for music style. --[[User:Miihkali|Miihkali]] 17:07, 14 June 2008 (EDT)

*Depends on whether this site follows the convention of capitalizing names of music genres. Many Metalheads capitalize Metal and Metal sub-genres out of reverence or something. Anyway, I'm inclined to agree with you, but the page for the album (if this site actually needs a page for it???) can always be called "Black Metal (album)".

== Bands ==

I added some christian black metal bands to the list with (christian) beside them and i removed venom from the list since its a death metal band not a black metal band.
*Venom is in no way death metal, dude. :P They are just Motörhead with worse production.[[User:Jewishfanofnsbm|Jewishfanofnsbm]] 01:01, 6 October 2008 (EDT)

Jewishfanofnsbm: alphabetizing

'''Black Metal''' is an extreme, and explicitly [[Satan|Satanic]], anti-[[Christian]], [[racism|racist]], and violent subgenre of [[Heavy metal music]]. Black Metal was first developed by many different bands from across [[Europe]], but was first popularized by the media attention surrounding several [[Norway|Norwegian]] bands and the various murders and arsons their members were involved in in the early 90's. Since then black metal has gained an underground following with fans and bands appearing all over the world. While less common now, the violence and mayhem that marked the early black metal scene persists to this day, with violence, killings, and vandalism inspired by black metal bands occurring sporadically but not infrequently across the globe.

==National Socialist Black Metal==
National Socialist Black Metal (commonly abbreviated as NSBM), is a style of Black Metal that replaces the normal Satanic themes with lyrics glorifying [[nazism]], [[anti-semitism]], [[Aryan]] heritage, [[White nationalism]] and the [[occult]] nature of the [[Third Reich]]. NSBM bands, while often criticising Satanic Black Metal bands for not focusing on [[race|racial issues]], retain the anti-Christian sentiments of normal Black Metal bands.

==Paganism in Black Metal==
Many Black Metal and NSBM bands adopt idealogical tenants of [[Paganism]] as a way of opposing Christianity, and in the case of NSBM, to promote it as an indigenous European "White's only" religion. Pagan symbols, such as rune script, sunwheels, Celtic crosses, and Thor's hammers frequently adorn Pagan Black Metal bands covers and themes from pre-christian European mythology permeate their lyrics.

==Christian Black Metal==
Christian Black Metal (often known as Unblack Metal or White Metal) is a highly controversial style of Black Metal that contains lyrics glorifying Christianity and opposition to [[Sin]], and Satanism. Musically similar to normal Satanic bands, Christian Black Metal has not been fully accepted by either the Black Metal scene at large or mainstream Christianity as being legitimate.
