Norwegian Black Metal?

[Keebler Elf]

Can someone refer some good bands/songs to me. I saw that Headbanger documentary movie and some of the black metal sounded pretty cool. Especially the Viking chant stuff.

Go to www.imdb.com and search out the doc that you watched. They should give you info on the names of the bands in the movie. That will get you started.

Then take those names and drop them into a website like www.liveplasma.com

This website will give you names of bands that it deems similar to the ones that you enter.

That should give you a starting point.

Also if the bands have homepages or fan sites they will probably have links to other bands.

Here's a link of info on black metal and it includes the names of a number of bands from norway.

Read the book, " Lords Of Chaos ", it's the complete history of Norwegian Death Metal and the history of the church burnings that are associated with it. If you love metal you will love this book
