Black Metal Inspired By Satan Or Really Cool Stuff?

KILL ALL SATANIC BANDS! I just want to say I think all "satanic black metal” bands should be shot!! There’s too many negative thought vibrations surrounding this world already. If anything, we need a little more light shown on this earth, instead of darkness.

Black Metal Inspired By Satan Or Really Cool Stuff?

What a controversy! METAL's readers were recently sending us the heads of goats ’n’ stuff in protest or praise of the coverage we’ve given bands like Venom, Anthrax, Slayer and more! It was great! Unfortunately—get this—it seems some of our other readers find this sort of thing distasteful! Go figure! So, as completely fair editors who always put the readers first, we’ve decided to let you zany readers argue the whole thing out! Is this stuff really inspired by demonic beings? Is it made by wimps who will surely perish in everlasting hellfire? Is it just a big joke? Are we? Hey, don’t ask us— we’re completely lost and have no answers to any of those great questions!
