A. Theres certainly nothing controversial about saying that black metal has more beliefs in common than not. But theres a hell of a leap, imo, from "more beliefs in common than not" to some sort of contiguous organization that one can make blanket statements about (i.e. "their war" etc.) (its also important to note, again imo, that we are looking at this from the vantage point of 2010 when the ideals of black metal have become, for better or worse, MUCH more homogenous)

Well, based on the innovators and what they said back in the day: their beliefs were entirely consistent with European Romanticism.

Since then there's been a dumbing down, from Milton to LaVey, if you will.

However, at the time, all the bands were expressing similar ideas. Since we're talking about 5-7 real innovators, it's not that big of a jump:

* Emperor
* Darkthrone
* Burzum
* Enslaved
* Mayhem

They're all European New Rightish, but in the kind of anarchistic quasi-Libertarian way you'd expect from a Troy Southgate or Michael Moynihan.

It may be kind of a generational thing, that specific interpretation.
