black metal history month


I've been studying the early 90s late 80s norweigan black metal scene pretty heavily due to my enchantment with burzum, and I've got to say those guys were some sick fucks. not that there's anything wrong with that. "dead" was obsessed with death. he slept over animal corpses to get that stench of death on him and brought dead crows to band practice for inspiration. he even buried himself for 3 days to get corpse rot under his eyes. and his buddy in mayhem only encouraged this behavior. I learned about the music sect and the violent sect and how they met and the whole deal. very interesting stuff. watch "black metal documentary" on google video along with "satan rides the media" and torrent "once upon a time in norway" if you want the whole story. these were intelligent lunatics with a real new idea set that they really believed in. for good music, check out some burzum, immortal, night conquers day and a little ancient to top it off nicely. euronymus and dead were the bestest buddies like in this picture.
