FREE BLACK METAL: EVOLUTION OF THE CULT PDF Dayal Patterson | 486 pages | 16 Jan 2014 | Feral House,U.S. | 9781936239757 | English | Los Angeles, United States Black Metal: Evolution of the Cult - Dayal Patterson - Google книги American publishers Feral House are best known for their scurrilous but entertaining history of Norwegian black metal, Lords Of Chaos, and have returned to the subject with a simultaneously broader and more scholarly range thanks to Evolution Of The Cult. His book adds plenty of previously unread interviews with the main culprits, leading to new perspectives on the original shortlist of innovators Venom, Bathory, Mercyful Black Metal: Evolution of the Cult, Hellhammer as much as the modern and frankly confusing wave of bands. Like most authors on the subject of black metal, Patterson pleads the Fifth when it comes to the uneasy subject of Nazi black metal, adopting a neutral rather than condemnatory Black Metal: Evolution of the Cult, as indeed is his only real option.

Black Metal: Evolution of the Cult by Dayal Patterson I found reading what he put together, from our talk about my band's early days, genuinely moving. If the other chapters are done with the same care and I assume they are this will be the definitive encyclopedia on Black Metal. Marrying a fan's enthusiasm with a more detached, academic approach is a difficult balance to achieve but Dayal does so with aplomb. Free from the sensationalist hyperbole that can blight texts on the genre, 'Evolution of the Cult' contains a dizzying array of detail, anecdotes, photographs and contextualization of the landmark artists within the genre Black Metal: Evolution of the Cult all delivered with Dayal's fluid prose and dry wit. A huge undertaking that oozes passion, this lengthy tome currently stands tall as THE definitive book on the black metal genre. Excellent work. It just makes me wanna tell all my friends to go out and buy a copy, which is what I'm gonna do. Compiled and written with sincerity of effort and high class aesthetics. To his credit, Patterson doesn't repeat Lords of Chaos' mistakes by focussing solely on the Oslo scene of the early 90s, though those events murders, church-burnings and grave desecrations get their own in-depth chapters. It's easy to recommend this book: it's the most ambitious work on black metal so far attempted. No doubt that it is written by a man that is professional and with a burning passion for the topic. Mandatory if you have any interest in the genre or want to explore a new world. It is an extremely diligent and well-informed publication that leaves almost nothing out of the history of the genre, containing many previously unreported facts and stories. This is no lazy collection of old interviews thrown together in haste. It is a modern masterpiece of the declining art of music journalism. In this book Dayal Patterson took what is probably the only reasonable approach to the task: he let the artists speak for themselves. If you are prepared to pick up a book this size, then are probably are enough of a fan to be glad that you did. The search for just and necessary information, without excesses, assimilating the vision of the band or musician and especially feeling the Black Metal: Evolution of the Cult of each artist or work. Dayal knew how to convey their work, interviewing each member of each band and crossing lines between them. A fascinating view on the beginnings of the genre, told Black Metal: Evolution of the Cult those that were a part of it, cleansed of most of the shock-value and hysteria that usually surrounds similar books and documentaries. Instead of basing his research on tabloid articles, Dayal has interviewed A LOT of the people involved in the scene, making sure he presents facts, not vague theories or guesses. Couple that with his extensive knowledge of the topic and his very skilled pen, Black Metal: Evolution of the Cult should be both very informative and an entertaining read. I am very much looking forward to reading the rest of this book, the Gehenna chapter is great! Now I am eager to start reading about the other bands! This is not a typical disc-guide book. This is not a book that only focusses on those inner circle myths. This is an in-depth and very well- researched book that overlooks the world of black metal.

Definitely this book Black Metal: Evolution of the Cult a lot of stories which have been never told to anybody - I don't think I ever talked about pre-Sigh days before. And surely this is the most detailed descriptions about our entire works. This Black Metal: Evolution of the Cult amazing! Another book about black metal. Dont tell me, another outsider writing about some sensationalist events that took place in Norway over twenty years ago. Who cares?

Author Dayal Patterson has not embarked on a personal mission to prove that some sort of global Satanic Network exists and he also manages to get his facts right in a book which devotes almost equal time to both Black Metal music and philosophy. Neither is this Gavin Baddeley's 'Lucifer Rising' - the interviews in Patterson's book having been conducted during the past To get the comparisons out of the way first, this is not the infamous 'Lords Of Chaos' by Michael Moynihan and Didrik Soderlind. Neither is this Gavin Baddeley's 'Lucifer Rising' - the interviews in Patterson's book having been conducted during the past six years for the most part and also in their proper context. By 'proper context' I mean that this book differentiates between those statements Black Metal: Evolution of the Cult for shock effects, those made through what could generously be described as "Youthful exuberance" and those made thoughtfully, sincerely and with the benefit of hindsight. It is sometimes the latter which are most shocking, as the book reveals a multitude of protagonists for whom time has not extinguished their passions and hatreds.
