Funniest thing ever .. probably

this whole issue is hilarious.
i cant believe that we are discussing whether ONE THE MOST KNOWN AND RESPECTED BLACK METAL BANDS is black metal or not.

erik you said immortal is not black for 2 reasons
1. they say so
2. they don't have satan-related lyrics

and my answer is simple and obvious

1. they can say that they play latin samba prog funk epic pop.i dont care. the music is black metal.period.
2. go take a look at de mysteriis lyrics.apart from the s/t track there is no reference to satan or anything satanic.so de mysteriis dom sathanas album HAS a black metal title but it's not black metal!!! wow!!! vikernes looked at the pagan side.so buruzm is not black metal either.

ok what do we have by now?
immortal - no black!
mayhem - no black!
burzum - no black!
early enslaved - no black!

what's next?


erik,get a grip man and pull yourself together.this "if-it's-not-satanic-it's-not-black" attitude is just CRAP.there is much more in blackmetal than sacrificing young virgins to the GREAT LORD OF HELL.



"hey guys look!! we play holocaust metal and NOT black metal,but we still have this inverted cross shit in our logo!!! cool eh?!?!? we rock!!!"
 
Some of you will have to realise and accept that Satanism isn't about sacrificing virgins to the unholy one while jerking off into a grail. Also, the whole feeling and ideology behind Mayhem at that point was purely satanic. You may also, check out the "Cursed In Eternity" lyrics. Erik probably knows more about this than any of us do together, too.
 
for shit's sake the sacrificing blah blah part was a JOKE...

Erik probably knows more about this than any of us do together, too.

yeah ladies and gentlemen here is the fortune teller of the day.if you know so much about people you have never even talked to,could you tell the horse that wins the next race?

1. True
2. False, because no matter if the lyrics on that album didn't really deal with Satanic matters so much, Euronymous (the leader of the band) was a Satanist, and earlier songs had spoken about Satanic matters a lot. NOT EVERY SONG BY A BLACK METAL BAND HAS TO DEAL WITH SATANISM -- at least not explicitely as long as the underlying ideology is manifested in the lyrics somehow anyway. At least "Cursed in Eternity" and the title track deal with Satanic-ish matters.
3. True
4. True

YOU must realize that satanism for blackmetal bands THEN was JUST "sacrificing young virgins to the horn-y god"
This is WRONG if you're talking about the second wave of black metal, google for interviews from around that time.

Me and Henrik have been in this forum for years discussing matters like these, and you came in here, what, 24 minutes ago, acting like you know everything and everyone? My advice for you is SIT DOWN AND SHUT UP. SIT THE FUCK DOWN, AND SHUT THE FUCK UP.

Well, I have talked to him quite a lot. Not in real life, but on the forum, and on metal chats on DC. I've also read quite a lot of his thoughts on black metal and extreme metal, and I find that I do agree with him on most "fundamental" matters. Assumptions like these won't exactly help you boost your credibility, matey :p

i'm checking the forum from time to time,even though i don't post.i also listen to black metal for quite a long time so don't tell me if i can say my opinion on any subject related to black metal. so i think that you and your friend could take a break for a while and actually read what i say,instead of judging me by the number of my posts. my advice for you is to give advice where needed. i think i'm fed up with this 19-years-old-troo-eevol-madness now. time to listen to some HOLOCAUST METAL.
cheers :*

.................
i meant that you have never talked to me and it's ME that you don't know.............

i'm starting to think that you are retarded or sth
 
fotbm (and others):
What i know about Euronymous is what his ex bandmembers say about him, that he was:
A MERCHANT. Nothing else nothing more. In interviews all Mayhem members speak like him in a way "well we wont miss him" or worst : "he did more good to the scene with dying". I am sure that he saw satanism as joke and a good way to have fun. And i am sure of his abilites as a merchant by watching your posts.
 
WAKE UP
THAT IS WHAT I AM SAYING.
His words that you look at them as a bible, were a fraud. A toy. A joke of him in order to sell more to "hungry for satanic black metal" fans. Start thinking that this might be real.
