Black metal also sucks considering most of it is someone complaining about themselves wanting to commit suicide. You also cant even understand them. Theres only 4 good black metal bands: Gorgoroth, Cradle of Filth, Dark Funeral, and Satyricon.But this is a conversation, and diversity is a very large part of any conversation. Also, it's simply an opinion I stated, I prefer Black metal to both Rap and Rock.
Now back to rap or rock...
About lyrics: I have to disagree there, a very large portion of Black metal lyrics are about self enlightenment(Through Satan or other ways, depends entirely on the band.)
Borknagar, for instance doesn't write about killing themselves. Off the top of my head, I can't think of anyone writing about killing themselves. Killing Others, perhaps, but that is all in the name of 'purity' (NSBM is white power music, after all.)
Try listening to some of different black metal, Burzum is a great place to start, doesn't get much black than Burzum. I can even send some to you if you'd like.
Also, I'm glad to see another gamer who tries to write their posts correctly. It's rather rare these days, with people trying to go for speed instead of accuracy.
