i don't know about their image. I don't really care for it that much. my dislike is really based on their music.
This shows that you probably listened to some Mayhem, Gorgoroth, and maybe some Darkthrone and just wrote off the whole genre as ****ed. Black metal is probably the most progressive metal genres there is. Sure, a lot of them just want to rerecord De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas, but on the other hand you've got Satyricon, Ulver, Emperor, Burzum, Immortal, Blut Aus Nord, Dodheimsgard, Spektr, Deathspell Omega, etc, etc, etc, that make some of the most non-comformist music you'll ever hear.
