I´ve always wondered how people can figure out the pronounciation of ancient languages
these people who write songs in old chezch must be philologists or do they take old texts and then sing them?
Perhaps you say so because you're actually able to understand the lyrics when they're shrieked in German
Or do you speak Norwegian?
Anyway, I think extreme genres like black metal don't necessarily need a specific language to convey the essential feeling attached to it. In fact most music works in spite of a veil of foreign (or in this case familiar) languages.
Originally posted by Ormir Actually I have a Russian black metal song... But the title is in cyrillics, so I have no idea what they are or how the name is spelled
