What is True Norwegian Black Metal?
1.
Greatest music ever created. Ultra cold metal with harsh production to create a truely demonic atmosphere!
Darkthrone's 'A blaze in the northern sky' is THE greatest album ever written
Darkthrone, Mayhem etc
2.
The original form of Black Metal, famous for its satanic lyrical content as well as its lo-fi hardedge musical backing.
Black Metal its purist form. Used to reference bands such as Emperor, Mayhem, DarkThrone, Burzum, and more recently Gorgoroth and Immortal. Newer bands in the third wave of black metal do NOT qualify as True Norwegian Black Metal. (sorry Dimmu)
Dimmu Borgir kicks ass but is not true Norwegian black metal.

3.
True Norwegian Black Metal is very lo-fi and consists of mostly black and white photography to represent it. Very high consistency of
satanic literature in the lyrics, and an "over excited rebelous teenager" attitude.

True Norwegian Black Metal = Immortal, Darkthrone, Emperor, Dimmu Borgir, Mayhem, Massemord, Sykdom, and I guess Dark Funeral even though they are from Sweden!
At the Heart of Winter is a great Black Metal album!!!
