I dont think its supposed to be Abbath or even a black metal guy, Im sure 99.9% of the people that see it think its just a member of KISS |
really?? according to wikipedia:
"one of Lars Umlaut's additional character skins that can be "purchased" in Guitar Hero III is called "Freedom" and has a facial makeup configuration similar to that worn by Gaahl onstage." |

In Peru we only saw that by internet...
If there were no internet in peru, our Black Death metal would be more straight ahead... more pure, more autehntic.. Peruvian bands now try to rip off nordic trend which is almost dissapearing...
I can not imagine Black Metal on supermarkets... unbelieveable....
wait, it is not Black Metal... It is Pop Metal...

I remember back when me and a friend of mine who was into black metal were saying "wouldnt it be funny if like all of a sudden black metal got popular and you saw stupid bands like cradle of filth on MTV being promoted as black metal and you could buy dimmu borgir shirts in the mall?" then we thought "no, that will probably never happen" (this is back when dimmu borgir's second album just came out).
guess we were wrong! |

While I listen PROFANATICA - Profanatitas De Domonatia, I know there will be always a band performing True BM...

| Black Metal died as soon as people stopped listening to VENOM and MERCYFUL FATE and only focused on Century Media and/or "kvlt" garbage. |

It's really lame to see people with MAYHEM shirts playing in bands, and they have never even heard a SARCOFAGO album and think that CELTIC FROST is "gay" because they "arn't brutal enough". I'm a big MAYHEM fan but you know the kind I'm referring to.
It's pretty much useless to try and talk about "Black Metal" or argue it with anyone since everyone has such a different concept of what it is, and sadly a lot of the people (like the ones I mentioned above) just repeat what they read in interviews or lyrics and think it's some kind of contest to see "who's idea is the best". Dogmatic idiots.
The kind of Black Metal I relate to the most nowadays is stuff like FRONT BEAST, MEGIDDO (can) and old legends that are still creating honest, quality stuff like NIFELHEIM and ARCHGOAT. These are the bands that really know what they're creating and why.

When I think of Black Metal, I think of early Sodom, Hellhammer, early Bathory, Bulldozer, Necrodeath etc etc. I just completely tune out all the modern shit anyway possible.
Fuck this game, fuck modern sounding black metal and fuck Brandon Fraiser. I hate him too.
