Most Black Metal bands are mainstream to some extent. I'm sure even a mallcore could tell you who Emperor or Mayhem are. Dimmu just took their mainstream success the farthest.

Er, just because some of the more popular bands are known even to some mallcore kids, it doesn't mean at all that most Black Metal bands are mainstream, because that's complete bullshit.


I've also yet to meet a mallcore kid who knows who Mayhem are.

Although, I HAVE seen Emperor albums in Best Buy.... ninja

Ok, first of all Dimmu is not Black Metal. They are Melodic Black Metal. Which is a subgenre of Black Metal. It's totally different 'effin genre. Second, people are getting on Dimmu's neck because they took a more melodic approach on their newer albums. You tards it's in the 'effin name. MELODIC black metal.

xd xd xd Since black metal is the genre of metal that's most oriented around melody..that's s**t. There's no sub-genre called "melodic black metal", that's like "melo-death" which is generally power metal with death vocals.

People don't like them because they're music degenerated to s**t, and they call themselves black metal when they're not black metal. Nothing to do with them being more "melodic".

You know how little kids have things like 'my first bicycle' and 'my first' this and that? Those introductory things? That's basically what Dimmu is, I think, cuz most people I know got into black metal through them, but then moved on when they heard other bands. So Dimmu is like 'my first black metal band'.

Do you mean to present on how all genres are silly. Or how you think, I'm silly for saying they're is a subgenre to Black Metal.

That does not display that genres are silly. It displays that people that speak about genres when they don't know what they're talking about are silly. xp

So your saying even critics of all shapes and sizing who call Dimmu Borgir Melodic Black Metal don't know what they're talking about?

Of course. Melodic black metal is a rather redundant statement, in itself.
