ABOUT Black Metal Steel Legion

De Mysteriis Domini Satanae

Black metal is an extreme subgenre of heavy metal music. Common traits include fast tempos, shrieked vocals, highly distorted guitars played with tremolo picking, blast beat drumming, raw recording, and unconventional song structure.

During the 1980s, several thrash metal bands formed a prototype for black metal. This was the "first wave" included bands such as Venom, Bathory, Sodom and Celtic Frost. A "second wave" arose in the early 1990s, mostly spearheaded by Norwegian bands such as Mayhem, Burzum, Darkthrone, Immortal and Emperor. The music of the early Norwegian black metal scene became a distinct genre.

In the 2000s, the term post-black metal refers to music which is rooted in black metal, but has taken on new directions beyond the traditional aesthetics. Bands may incorporate progressive, industrial, electronic or post-punk elements, or may just have experimental tendencies in general.

Although several disparate strains are commonly recognized as post-black metal, such as the post-rock and shoegaze-influenced wave, or the more discernibly black metal-oriented avant-garde metal bands, the most appropriate definition of the term would be music in which the core elements of black metal are the subjects of experimentation.

Black metal has often been met with hostility from mainstream culture, mainly due to the misanthropic and anti-Christian standpoint of many artists. Moreover, several of the genre's pioneers have been linked with church burnings and murder. For these reasons and others, black metal is usually seen as an underground form of music. Additionally some have been linked to neo-Nazism or pro-Communism, however most black metal fans and most black metal musicians reject Nazism or Communism ideology and oppose its influence on the black metal subculture.
