Me too. Enya, assemblage 23, vnv nation, all get rocked out too in my car and truck. 11 and 8 year old have certain tracks on request depending on the drive. Love some classic rock, oldies, patsy Cline and Johnny cash.
But I will tear up some pantera, meshuggah or samael. Love being well rounded.
Sharing good music with the uncultured, utterly abject unwashed masses of GD is our duty. Do not shy away from it
I love music. Made the mistake of working at a books / music store for a few years in my 20s. Bad idea. They paid me just to turn around and spend it all on books and music. Always happy to hear a new band or see a new author.
Yeah, “real Black Metal” was just made up as an excuse for the tape recorder in the bathroom production, so they could sell albums. Of course the bands were much better live.
I always thought it was a parody on a lot of metal tropes: the scandinavian guitarists, wanting to record in the deepest, most brutal, metal place in the world, the Mariana Treeeeeeeeeeeeeench (love that episode), etc.
