Norg, Black Metal was never exclusive to Scandinavian countries. At all.

Anyways, I think the most interesting development in the genre is the movement away from the norsecore sound. Bands like Black Witchery, Revenge, Goatpenis, Havohej (etc.) seem to be enjoying a good level of popularity in the scene.

Krallice has already been mentioned, they're pretty normal, if a little unwashed:-



and they're "hipster", not tr00 kvlt, make of that what thou wilt

Agalloch as well:-



American black metal are usually played by "New Age" pansywaists, who don't want to associate with the Scandinavian cheese-whiz Paganisms or burning churches

their style is also more "atmospheric" than "brutality"

I was kind of being faceitous as I really have a hard time distingusing them from each other.

I think the bigger picture thing here is, and this is an open question to all black metal listeners on this forum, would normal be an adjective you use to describe yourself?

Aren't they like super eco-activist types who live in a farm in the woods? I wouldn't call them normal.

I'd call myself eccentric.

They live on a farmstead, though I'm not sure if it's in the woods. As far as I know they are very eco-activist, but I live in the woods surrounded by farms, and if I could garden myself I probably would. My dad does. I guess to some it would be weird, but I don't think so.

To be fair, I don't know how normal someone on an internet forum is gonna be. No offense, but I'm usually the weirdest person in the room. Besides, I get the feeling that they didn't so much grow up on a farm, as they just decided to ditch civilization and go live on a farm in the woods (and I seem to remember an interview where they did mention it being in the woods). So, I'd say that's not exactly normal. I'd love to do it myself, but again, usually the weirdest person in the room.

There's a one man band called Caïna, last.fm users say he looks like Ricky Martin...



Though he doesn't play tr00 black metal, more like experimental black metal
