how do i get into black metal?

ive been mostly listening to metal bands like pantera, limp bizkit, godsmack

you listen to it. it’s that simple. go to rym and listen to what ppl think is the best one and figure out what you like or don’t like.

>>126732994 (OP)
nu-metal is the only good kind of metal

Listen to Filosofem if you don't fuck with it the genre probably isnt for you

>>126733057
Then what do I listen to after Filosofem?
Only particularly liked the first half by the way.

>>126732994 (OP)

>>126733057
Filosofem isn't representative of black metal.

Then what do I listen to next? It's the only black metal I've heard that I actually like.

try this one out

>>126733140
oh shut up

>>126733158
Hard to say. I've listened to hundreds of black metal albums, and none of them sounded like Filosofem. If you want to get the gist of the genre, then I'd probably recommend something like "A Blaze in the Northern Sky" by Darkthrone (even though I'm not the biggest fan of that record myself), simply because it illustrates the kind of sound that people have in mind when they talk about black metal, and which is generally associated with the second wave. If you want something earlier from the first wave, that's a bit less its own thing and closer to thrash and speed metal, then can't go wrong with Bathory's self-titled debut. If you want to try something that's perhaps more accessible, then check out "At the Heart of Winter" by Immortal, "Blood Fire Death" by Bathory, or "Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk" by Emperor. All the albums I mentioned are classics, so even if you don't like them, you'll get a better picture of a fraction of the best quality black metal that's out there.

The song "Curse You All Men!" by Emperor is a pretty good intro to the genre if you already like regular metal. I'm not a huge BM fan, but Emperor are fucking great.

>>126733232
It's true. I love the record, but it was made specifically in a way to break the black metal conventions present at the time.

random recs from a black metal-loving anon:
>Taake - Over Bjoergvin graater himmerik
A pretty aggressive, arguably 'thrashy' take on the genre, from one of the greats.
>Aosoth - Aosoth and The Inside Scriptures
First one is same idea but even more slayer-ish. The latter is a gem in the dissonant black metal niche.
>Acherontas - Amarta (Reptilian Unification Part II)
Just an all around solid album from Greece. One of my favorites.
>Kataxu - Hunger of Elements
Excellent symphonic black. Immortal is the originator of this style, but this to me is like a somewhat more modern-sounding take on it. Insane from the very first track.
>Drowning the Light - Conquer or Serve I: From Primordial Waters of Chaos
Pretty new release. Comfy af melodic black metal in a series of 5 albums all released this year.
>Drudkh - Autumn Aurora
Speaking of comfy, this is an essential pick in that category. Atmospheric and beautiful Ukranian BM
>Nokturnal Mortum - Lunar Poetry and Voice of Steel
Speaking of Ukranian, these guys are some of the best in that category. Lunar Poetry is one of the best black metal demos released, and Voice of Steel is a good example for Folk-Black.

*Emperor, not Immortal

>>126732994 (OP)
Try Sortsind, Abruptum, Emit, MZ. 412, Wold, Apator

>>126733632
>sortsind
>abruptum
You trying to guarantee that he never gets into the genre?

>>126732994 (OP)
Sure. You must listen to these:
*a list of shitty obscure bands that don't appeal to anyone but 10 people collectively*

>>126732994 (OP)
If you like these butt rock bands then the closest black metal band is behemoth

>>126733158
That’s atmospheric black metal
Try darkthrone and mayhem for black metal

>>126733789
Behemoth has been making (blackened) death metal since 1999. And that's also what they're the most known for (albums like Demigod and The Satanist). Their early black metal stuff is fairly generic and uninteresting.

>>126732994 (OP)
Try Bathory
Try Dissection
Try Burzum
Try Mayhem
If you don't like any of those you won't like most black metal

>>126732994 (OP)
Listen to my band:

I would actually not recommend that you listen to "classic" records if you are an absolute beginner, because they have shitty production and repetitive song structures that would be off-putting to new listeners. Most of the albums included in this list are from established acts, but with more developed sounds, so eventually I would say to visit their earlier works just so you can be familiar with those records. >>126733353 may also be good. The records by established acts are for the most part "modern classics".

i agree with your premise but that's a really weird choice of Abigor, Behemoth, Rotting Christ, Darkthrone, Marduk and Absu/Proscriptor albums
needs more Frenchie and Polish bm but it's got some keepers

>>126733074
Are zoomers really this fucking clueless these days? You need to be guided by the hand on what to listen to next? Look it up.

>>126734817
excellent bait
9.5/10 only thing I'd change is the marduk album

>>126732994 (OP)
Tribulation and Cloak were how I got into black metal. Give these albums a listen.
