Ok, I will let you know when a new genre arises that doesn't infer anything from other genres. LOL


As dumb as it sounds, I stand by that statement. Granted, art is always borrowing and progressing from earlier styles and genres. Any person who has studied the history and development of Art and/or Classical music would know this.

But, looking at the big picture, what is unique to me are the paintbrushes (musical instruments) we are given. There are hundreds of them. Needs moar black metal without distorted guitar or rock drums, but with 100% other instruments.

And your argument is acknowledged by other musical critics, many of which have described the progression of the black metal sound as broken into 1st wave, 2nd wave, etc. In the end, genre talk is a fruitless battle because a lot of the bands out there aren't genre defining. That is, to categorize them, you will get a different answer depending on who you ask, and possibly a mash-up of genre labels. Like the "blackened ___ ___ ___ death ____ ___ metal" bands.


Agreed. The bands that had established black metal for what it WAS, deserve the credit by being labelled into a certain niche. Today, however, genres are nothing but a joke because of the meshing.
