| | Black metal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The main originators of black metal are considered to be the bands Venom (who coined the term in 1981 and named their second album Black Metal in 1982), Mercyful Fate, Bathory, Hellhammer, Bulldozer, Celtic Frost and Mayhem. | | | War metal is a black metal offshoot sub-genre that, since the release of a now infamous split between the bands Black Witchery and Conqueror, has been used to describe a certain sound; although the title was first coined by Holocausto from Brasil on their 1987 LP Campo De Exterminio. | | | Troll metal is a term used to group black metal bands, and bands rooted in black metal, that deal with lyrical themes and imagery about trolls, goblins and other related subjects that are closely related to those of power metal. |

| | Behemoth - Black Metal |
| | Of these remaining black metal songs, they are fast and simple in the style of Immortal's first album, using riffs that develop across languid song structures that preserve an emotional state for dissection in the simple bends of a few riffs. | | | Little about this album will please the black metal purist, as it reveals its inner desire to explore metal in older styles, but the strength of its riffs and some of these more vibrantly aggressive songs qualifies it for repeated if infrequent listens. | | | There are four tunes here of which one is a Bathory "tribute" soundalike, leaving two solid fast black metal songs and one more epic tune where Nergal, the egomaniacal force behind this band, informs us that he played all of the instruments and not just guitar. |

| | album, but it's still good as it is. Some of the song structures and concepts were kinda re-used on Nachthymnen (one of the tracks on this cd sounds very similar to the closing few minutes of Nachthymen). | | | Abigor also happens to be my favorite black metal band as well, and this was the album that introduced me to Abigor's music. | | | The vocals are much different than on the albums, on this release they are more shouted out, and yelled, than on the other albums. |

| | Thy Primordial - Swedish, Aggresive Black Metal! |
| | Fifth album "The crowning carnage" is a very competent release that shows a band with clear ideas and straightforward in their intentions. | | | Today Black metal is a part of the music industry, nowadays. | | | Black metal for me is violence music on the edge of sense and madness with a dark feeling. |

| | Album Review NARGAROTH-Black Metal ist Krieg :: Maelstrom :: Issue No 4 |
| | Speaking of which, the man's voice on this album may be up there with the likes of Garm, Abbath and Nocturno Culto as the best black metal vocals ever. | | | The title to this black metal (as if you hadn't guessed already) album is actually longer if you include the fine print that reads "A Dedication Monument." And that's really what this godly disc is all about: paying tribute to the champions of black metal. | | | Totally essential and my pick for black metal album of the year. |

| | Immortal - Black Metal |
| | The most technical of the Scandinavian black metal bands, Immortal fused melody and sweeping song structures with the strumming technique and rhythmic framework of modern metal. | | | Most sounds are discernible and guitar sound is clear throughout the album. | | | The structural innovations of this album place it in a new sub-genre of thought but its riff composition clearly differentiates it from all visible elements, including older styles of black metal and the darker, more rhythmically undulating and ambient death metal bands. |

| | Finally a metal band, that instead of talking about how much they love Depeche Mode or some other gloomy pop bands, and maybe even covering a Depeche Mode song once in a while, actually writes gorgeously catchy and sweetly depressive songs that rival those of any of their influences. | | | Not a new album from these Norwegian black metal thrashers, but a re-release of their rare 1995 debut mini-cd "Dreams Like Deserts" with the addition of a bunch of previously unreleased tracks, including a few live tracks and two recordings with Fenriz of the illustrious Darkthrone on vocals! | | | Tyhjyys (whatever that means?) is this Finnish black metal band's third album. |

| | It may not be strictly black metal (not that there is any Black Metal Dictionar, and if the was Emperor would definetly be part of the authours) but it is soooooooo goood, i could talk for ages abouts its power and craftsmanship, and the concept lyrics fit every riff perfectly. | | | Mine is Emperor - Anthems To The Welkin At Dusk. | | | Because this is not oldschoolblasphemousunholyr0x0rblackmetal, that music is much more, with punk and heavy metal influences, incorporating best there is in other genres, they know how to play and do it great. |

| | Released during the shit-tsunami of Dwell Records “tribute” albums that we were all forced to suffer through, this one by and large was the biggest letdown. | | | I believe it was Hellhammer that said black metal bands that intentionally/unintentionally have bad production aren’t doing so because they are “true,” but because they want to cover up the fact that they don’t know how to play their instruments. | | | Arguably the worst black metal album ever recorded. |
