Nov 14 2012, 02:21 AM	GMC:er Posts: 25.297 Joined: 23-December 09 From: Atlanta, Georgia, USA	I recently watched UNTIL THE LIGHT TAKES US, again on youtube and wanted to share the vid in case anyone hadn't seen it. It is a documentary about the violent history of Black Metal and that troubled time when crazy kids in Norway were setting things on fire and engaging in violence, and making some Metal music along the way. The music that came out of this scene (While not my thing personally) has had an ENORMOUS impact on Metal/Heavy Music in general and continues to this day.

I swear I was on YT the other night looking for a decent documentary on Norwegian BM and the events surrounding it. This isn't the first time we've had this Trans Atlantic telepathy going on.... I will give this a watch, thank you. I went through bit of a BM phase when I was in my late teens and I still go back now and again and listen to the stuff that stood out the most. I actually hauled out a couple of my old Mayhem albums.. I recommend the album 'Chimera' for some truly mind melting guitar work. For some reason I like listening to extreme music when I draw, I find it calming. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Oddly, I was on YT around the same time looking for similar stuff when I ran across this one again "Let Go Luke!!" I really dig some elements of Black Metal guitar, and it's been used now in "Non Satanic" music called "Blackened Metal" which is just metal using some Black Metal elements but leaving out the bits about Satan and and crosses, and such. Taking the music and leaving behind much of the theatrics. Theatrics are great and all, but in the end it's really about cool music You can hear bits of Black Metal inspired playing all over the place in Metal these days and I sometimes catch myself doing it as well, But everything we take in sort of mixes together and comes out MUSIC which is cool Todd QUOTE (Ben Higgins @ Nov 14 2012, 01:10 PM) Todd this is so weird.

Here is another very spiff shorter doc (in 5 smaller chunks featuring The lead singer of Gorgoth generally bewildering a bunch of American journalists who just don't seem to get it/him). He really does have a very profound philosophy which can be broken down in part to "Are you listening to the truth in your heart, or are you just a pile of guilt and BullS**T masquerading as a man?" They even visit the small shed his grandparents lived in on the highest peak in the area, built by bringing up one bit of wood at a time. Now that's Metal Of course, the hike up the hill almost killed the journalists. Posted just after the Witching hour QUOTE (Ben Higgins @ Nov 14 2012, 01:10 PM) Todd this is so weird.

What i like in black metal is actually more atmosphere than music... In fact there's one Norway former black metal guy from Bergen, i bet he can tell us more about BM culture and lifestyle You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

But yeah, check out some of the guitar work of Blasphemer of Mayhem. He uses a lot of dissonant chords and diminished sounding stuff but his chops are amazing.. his rhythm playing is unbelievably tight. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

It honestly took me a bit of time to get past the initial overall sound but the atmosphere and chords etc are really cool. Im looking at getting the book - Lords of chaos anyone read it, or similar books? You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Im looking forward to reading it, What makes it depressing in places? Just some of the descriptions of the everyday activities and attitudes of some of the main people.. some of the things Vikernes says about Euronymous, if they're true, make for bit of a disturbing read. But then again, considering the rivalry between a lot of these guys you have to take it with a pinch of salt. Definitely worth a read though. I had to order it specially from a book store ! That was years ago now... probably not long after it came out. I bought it after reading about it in Kerrang (you remember that magazine that used to cover metal ?)
