Black Metal

Black Metal is an intense and atmospheric genre that emerged in the early 1980s, primarily from the Scandinavian underground scene. Characterized by its raw production, tremolo-picked guitar riffs, blast beat drumming, and shrieking vocals, it often explores themes of darkness, nature, and anti-religious sentiment. Notable for its theatrical live performances and controversial history, Black Metal pushes the boundaries of musical extremity while fostering a fiercely dedicated global fanbase.
