But black metal is best metal 😄
(I understand you're fairly religious. Is your qualm with BM just related to common lyrical subject matter or does it have something to do with the actual sonics? Because there's plenty of BM that doesn't deal with Satan & friends)
It is true that I do stay away from listening to the music that deals with Satan & friends (but not stuff like Van Halen's Running With The Devil). That does play a big part in me not listening to black metal. I also don't like the Neo-Nazi aspects that some of the bands have. I will admit that I am not one who is adept at musical terminology and wouldn't know what timing or key a song is in. Now the reason why I don't listen to much of the black metal that tends to stray away from such topics is that I just don't like the lo-fi aspect of it mixed with the shrieking or how heavily distorted their guitars are. I like guitar distortion, but black metal is just too much, but there again it could just be because of the lo-fi aspects.
