no. what would make me feel better is if people understood the aesthetic and raw emotion that goes into good black metal. arguably, it has been dead for years, but there are certain bands that capture the proper feel in which it should encompass. Sadly, it is a lost art, albeit, still a legit genre of music. Horrible analogy, but consider old school hip hop compared to today's hiphop. there's no fucking difference between what happened to black metal and what happened to hip hop. the underground still thrives in both genres, but everything is generally watered down garbage with people that just don't get it. I still enjoy black metal occasionally and spin a lot of the classics, but I don't get boners over it anymore like I used to.
I'd argue that 85% of black metal sucks.. but when speaking in USBM terms, that number jumps up to 99%.

i've already said my 2 cents 1,000,000 times on this board, and some of you can take it at face value or just plain laugh at it. frankly I don't care anymore; most metal is LOL worthy now. give me metal from the NWOBM up until the late 90s and we'll call it even.
