I don't know, I really used to dig them, but now I kind of consider it a bit of a joke, I mean, these guys are fully grown men wearing corpse paint and screaming about satan. That's ok for a teenage garage band, but at what point does it become a joke? And I just think it sounds really manufactured too, a bit over-produced for that typical Black Metal sound.

If they can play their instruments well everything else falls into place/

The first three albums are excellent. My favorite remains the first; "Stemmen Fra Taarnet" and "My Journey to the Stars" are some of the best metal songs of all time.

As opposed to a bunch of white males born in first world suburbs proclaiming themselves to be Anarchists or such stupidity.

Is there anything accessible and creative for a recommendation?

i don't think there's anything remotely accessible about black metal - it's just screaming over lo-fi racket

you either like it or you don't

Emperor's In the Nightside Eclipse is a classic of the genre

I was afraid you were going to say that. I like the lo-fi racket part, just not the screaming...
