Metal question!

[Ronnie Raygun]

What's the diference between Black Metal and Death metal?

[Emu]

Marilyn666 is the difference.

[Ronnie Raygun]

Don't give me that.....

Tell me what the difference is...please!

[Ninjavenom]

I'm not going to go Helm and try to get all technical, so just remember that BM has raspy vocals whereas Death has mid-level or deep vocals. Death is also a lot thicker sounding. BM is infamous for its KVLT bands having crappy recording quality on their albums. BM also makes a point to say naughty things about god. A lot.

[Big Papa Goat]

Theres just as many death metal bands that talk bad about god as there are black metal bands.

[Ninjavenom]

Doesn't matter. It's one of the main pillars of BM.

[Ronnie Raygun]

I'm not in that scene so I'm not familiar with those bands.......so that won't help.

Thanks guys for trying.

Marilyn Manson is Black Metal, CRADLE OF FILTH is Death Metal.

You probably haven't heard many of their songs. What the hell do you listen to,Good Charlette?

[CastroMotorOil]

Death Metal generally will have deep raspy vocals, subject manner of the songs ranges from ahte of god to simply describing blood and gore. The guitars are fast but thicker and deeper sounding then black metal. (for a horrid comparison, Slipknot guitar tone compared to like green day guitar tone)

Black Metal generally has vocals that are like shrieking and the subject matter is almost ALWAYS about hatred of all things holy. Guitars are normally fast as well but a little higher pitched then death metal. (higher strings, no downtuning etc)

Of course there are 10000000 exceptions to those rules.

For a good illustraton of them, download some cannibal corpse and some Dark Throne, and the differnece will be easy to see.

[Marilyn666]

It's the other way around.

[Mr. Fugo]

Other way around? I think that explanation kinda describes it good.

[Marilyn666]

They are good, but they Death metal should go in black metals place, and Black metal should go in death metals place.
