A slow, ambient form of metal, an off-shoot of doom metal. Music in this genre is characterized by very long songs consisting of ambient noise, few vocals, and generally a repetitive drum and bass line. Music targeted for stoners. Bands like this include Halo and SUNN (((O
Not considered real music; people hate this stuff. People feel that artists like these shouldn't be signed to labels when "real" artists still go unnoticed.

The name of what metal now is, people don't understand that this is not a different genre, this is what metal has changed to. Also some of you saying nu-metal sucks need to realize, if it sucks, why would it be so much more popular. And don't go saying nu-metal has no meaning in any song after you heard three words from a band, you need to listen to a wider variety of it.
Nu-Metal has good bands: System of a Down, Mudvayne, and Slipknot(mainly only talking about the drummer and vocals)
And bad bands:Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, etc.

A bullshit genre of what some people consider music. The lyrics consist of random screeming about satanism, death, macabre, ect. Band members are decked out in black leather (lots of it), spikes, nails, studds, fudge-packer paint (oops, I mean "corpse paint"), ect. The fanbase is full of non-comformist, gothic, satanic, nazi fucks. Black metal fans should find Jesus and find some deacent bands such as The Doors, Pearl Jam, Widespread Panic, Keller Williams, Ani Difranco, The Dave Matthews Band, The Grateful Dead, Tori Amos, Xavier Rudd. The list goes on and on of non-angry or satanic bands. So, all black metal fans out there, go fuck yourselves!!!
Black metal fan: Let's go burn down a church and fuck some nuns.
Human Being: Die you sick fuck!!!(shoots black metal fan)
Black metal fan: AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

The evil twin of death metal. Black metal is the music of the unforgiving and those who are devoted to magic and or Satan. Black metal is far more dangerous than death metal because unlike death metal, black metal can cause temporary retardation, instant need for Satanism, the need for shrooms and other trip drugs, the want to burn a bible, suicide, murder, slowly tearing yourself apart, and fear of the dead. But those immune to it sometimes find it more appealing and beautiful than normal death metal. WARNING! NEVER BACKMASK BLACK METAL!
Give an emo kid this shit and you'll be cleaning flesh and blood forever. Most preppies generally hate this music because their friend tore their head off while it played. Most kids that backmask black metal end up inside out and morbidly raped by their own tongue.
See death metal if you want more info.

What was once fantastic music enjoyed by a handful of rabid loyalists that has become more of a fashion statement recently that a music. Disenfranchised Caucasian kids flock to this as it is predominantly Caucasian and gives them an outlet to feel superior to the other kids that actually have futures. Remember, watch MTV2 and Metalapocalypse (if I said it wrong, good!), shop at Hot Topic, and play Guitar Hero III and soon you'll be more "black metal" than your friends who are also desperately trying to embrace this disgraced music by wearing Cradle of Filth and Dimmu Borgir shirts every time they step out of the house!
PoSeRkId: Hey, cool shirt! Is that a black metal band?
BitterOldMetalhead: No, jerkass, it's an independent film I'm directing.
