Wow you have some hardcore tastes in music. Some pretty good stuff. Nothing wrong with black metal...even though the corniness makes me laugh sometimes instead of being scared.

[Doriu]

every kind of music has it's black sheep. I liked the old black metal which was anti mainstream but in an equal amount I like these new black metal bands for their sounds and poetry although most of them are Satanic music (although most of them are not satanists). In truth, any music that preaches hate, love, peace, war, or, in short, humanity, in a poetic and original enough way has my vote. And the expression of humanity can be expressed in music too so if the lyrics suck I still listen to it and the other way around also applies.
