in classifying a song as blackmetal, do the lyrics have to worship satan or can it be against religion in general?

if it doesn't meet the unwritten criteria, its not tr00, and since that criteria is unwritten, you can call everyone untr00 for whatever reason that doesn't exist.

Yes, the music is how you classify MUSIC, the lyrics can be about whatever.

many black metal bands bash no religion
if black metal is defined by lyrics, then Diamanda Galas is the ultimate black metal artist.

I thought BM was more like against religion and with particularly screetchy vocals and generally fast riffing..
Yeah what the others said, it's about the vocals, the scratchy guitar sound, fast riffing if you're tr00, lyrics can be pretty much about anything although anti-religious is the norm.

You have to have a guitar tone that sounds like angry insects, you have to tremolo pick like a maniac and you have to sing in raspy screechy vocals.

Without the lyric sheet you'd never be able to tell what they're screaming about. It could be the hypocrisy of Christianity or taking a dump and then noticing you have no toilet paper! AAAAARRRRRGGGGHHH!!!!!!!!
