I would argue that black metal ran into a brick wall in the 90s and shattered into a bunch of little pieces. Since then, kids have been picking up the pieces and pasting them with other pieces of shattered genres. What we have now are cross-genre bands which deem themselves original, and in some cases they are. But from an artistic perspective, black metal in and of itself can no longer progress as a genre. You either are influenced by the black metal sound and aesthetic, or you are straight up worshiping the bands/gods of old.

Music has been dead for years. Wake me when a new genre arises - something that is fresh and does not require rehashing and pasting of other genres. (that's not to say I don't enjoy some of those bands that do)
