come on…I’m sure there are some out there!!!
some pretty funny pictures. remember some of these guys supposedly ‘worship satan’, or whatever the heck they do. haha.
Someone chime in on this , there is a band video of a group kind of a Danzig buff lead singer . Its shot in daylight in a rundown down part of a city , the tune is a standard rock repetitive beat / bass - ALL THE GUY DOES IS GRUNT . No guitar solo - hot refrain vocals - Drum solo .
I watched it a few times to get a feel for it , I listen to most any music . After a few minutes it was clear its pure trash with 0 to negative number review , true low in noise sold as music .

One of those pics gives literal experession to the phrase ‘rock out with your cock out’.
heh
Venom was/is the best black metal band ever!!!
geez man, you just regressed me back to the age of 14.
you’ll give folks the idea that we have nowt all all to do in NZ on a sunday afternoon.
Ugh…awful pics, though I do find some of the music entertaining. Cradle of Filth and Dimmu Borgir have found their was into my collection. What’s really interesting is when one of those songs gets sandwiched between the Beatles and Snoop Dog when itunes is left on shuffle mode.
It’s this generation’s punk. It’s driven by isolation and anger so talent is meaningless to the feeling it gives the kids who listen to it. This is the ulitimate fuck you to your parents and to society. I wouldn’t waste a penny or a second on it but for some weirdo reason I have to give them some props.
there are some seriously bad “black metal” bands out there Interestingly enough, none of them sound very “heavy” to me.
Metal and it’s subgenres is the most difficult of tight ropes. 99.9% of the time it just comes off as awful posing nonsense. But like anything else, when genius shines through - it’s amazing. Take ole Matt Pike from High on Fire. Poor guy is semi retarded. Seriously, very nice guy - but oooh man did he smoke his brain away. But the INSTANT he starts playing the guitar, you know you are watching something extraordinary. Of course, the INSTANT he stops playing, he’s got an IQ of 72 again.
Another side note to Matt’s history: He was in a band called “Sleep” in the early 90’s. Tney got a $100,000 contract from London records. What did they do with the money? Spent it all on pot. Smoked SO MUCH pot that they saw GOD - (I am NOT making this up) - and recorded a 54 minute album containing ONE SONG about the aforementioned encounter. The album was named Jerusalem, but there are two versions out there and the second is called “Dopesmoker”.
It helps when you are singing about demons and shit if you are really seeing that crap, I suppose…
anyway…
