>>11752496> Filosofem destroyed black metal> death metal is dead now because of Incantation tricking people into making (((noise))) instead of continuing to make musicNope, death metal just like black metal, thrash metal and speed metal is a genre destined to infinite self-repetition with occasional originality that always brings controversy whether it truly belongs to genre. All of those genres were superhot in their first N years, then go into conservation mode with occasional minor subculture-rebirth spikes which are more of a social experiments than something relevant to musical scene. IMO the best kind of genre fan is one who enjoys both conservation mode stuff and original pushing-the-boundaries controversial stuff.
