Other than lyrically, how in the hell can music be Nihilistic. I guess I'm kind of at a loss here; this has bothered me for a while. Bands specifically black metal bands describe their music as such.

Music is about order, no matter what genre. Nihilism, to my understanding is at least chaotic rejects the order society puts forth. Something which I believe applies to musical theory, or even music as an idea.

Any thoughts?
 
I have to be off to work in a minute, so I don't have time to put much thought into a response to this right now, but I'll just say that nihilism shouldn't be thought of as inherently chaotic, I don't think. Nihilism doesn't deny rules and order, only the supposed fundamentality of such things to our existence.
