You talk like someone who hasn't explored the genre at all and has just checked out Immortal videos on youtube.

Get 'Diadem of 12 Stars' by Wolves in the Throne Room, 'Genevieve' by Velvet Cacoon and 'Autumn Aurora' by Drudkh (and I haven't even named my favorite black metal band and album yet) and until you do any such thing, you are not allowed to have an opinion on black metal.

Black metal is by far the most adventurous type of music metal has had to offer so far. Moreso than Neurosis, or Godflesh or god knows what else. No type of music can have majestic, beautiful melodies and combine them with aggression like black metal can and there is no music that can be as soothing as noisy as black metal is.

Meh, may as well mention the band/song that makes everyone love bm:

Ulver...

Guys, come on now, let's be fair...

We all know Death Metal is absolute shit. Both BM and Godflesh/Neurosis are 10x better than... what's that silly guy the kids are in love with? Schuler? Chris Schuler...?

To be honnest, black metal sometimes have great melodies and music in general, but the growlings and the attitude generally makes me laugh much more than anything else.

True darkness, when talking about metal, resides in doom/drone/stoner/sludge metal, in my opinion. Nothing better than an Electric Wizard track when I feel a bit nihilistic.

As said Godflesh Fiend, Swans is also one of those bands that can't be compared to anything. They were playing shows in the 80's with so intense volume that some people were throwing off and forced to quit the show.

legendary band.. definitely not black metal. hardcore (+dub/reggae)
love all the forerunners of that scene in dc/ny/cali (including straight edge)..

like classic slayer & metallica.. but can't get into much new. even tho i hear lots of good things about the current sludge/stoner/doom scenes

I'm into lots of death metal/deathcore and some grind

as far as death metal goes, Whitechapel is where its at. A lot of people who dont even like death metal will listen to them and like it because they're so fuckin brutal!

Abacabb is AWESOME. sick nasty breakdowns and awesomeness.

The Acacia Strain (heavy hardcore influences)

A Different Breed of Killer - SOOO SICK!

When England needs more land, they just send out Bal-Sagoth to stick flags in the ground. It's cheaper than fighting wars.

OK, nice stick. But come on, dude, wrestling shoes are sooooo NOT Black Metal. Get yourself some boots with metal spiked shinguards or something. The Asics just don't cut the mustard.

There's a difference between "corpse paint" and "fingerpaint", I believe. Next time try shopping at Hot-Topic instead of Michael's, asswipe!!!!

Sickest vocalist Britain's ever seen, Johnny Morrow.

I remember when I got the Murder One CD and Paul Catten's vocals in the first verse were canny harsh but when Johnny Morrow's vocals kick in, fucking hell. Sounded like he was gargling paint stripper
