Re: What do you guys think of black metal?

Haha, I never heard that before. I don't imagine it's true, but the sound is pretty darn abrasive. My favorite description I've heard for that album is that it sounds like it was recorded on an...

No. Death metal evolved out of thrash metal. It commonly has low-pitched growls, but that's not a genre-definer--it's just an earmark. Of course the guitars are distorted. And what they sing about is...

Erm. No, I know what I said, and it's the opposite of what you just said.

Agnosticism basically says you can't know about the existence of a god.

As such, it's totally compatible with (weak) atheism.
