I agree with you to an extent, I just don't think a black metal band sounds "new" when it wears their influences on its sleeve. That doesn't mean I don't like it, but it just seems harder to find more innovative/original black metal bands these days. They still exist, but are very few and far between. But the question is, when blackmetal band incorporates non-metal influences (right now it primarily is shoegaze) does that make them non-blackmetal? Shoegaze with black metal influences? Sadly it brings up the genre argument, which just about everyone hates.
I think music as a whole is running out of ideas. Everything will be rehashed with different slices of different styles. Much like art.
