My understanding is that black metal started as a loose tag for Satanic-themed metal bands, usually with a kind of dark, thrashy sound. Bathory from Sweden was a key band and Mercyful Fate from Denmark were significant for subject matter and presentation, but it wasn't just in Scandinavia. There were also bands like Von in Hawaii, Hellhammer/Celtic Frost in Switzerland, Sarcofago and early Sepultura in Brazil, early Sodom in Germany, Venom in the UK, Blasphemy in Canada, early Rotting Christ in Greece, Profanatica in the US, it was really an international network of bands sending each other tapes and influencing each other. A very early incarnation of Mayhem in Norway was part of that network.
Thanks for checking us out! You were correct, we're a UK based band but have greek members and our lyrical themes are heavily inspired by Greek mythology
French nautical black metal Houle is worth checking out. Very unique and with a female vocalist. Svartkonst is another worth checking out, especially the song "haunt me". Kanonenfieber has a new track out "Der Maulwurf". Very solid. Der Maulwurf is German for "The Mole."
Saudações do Brasil. A minha recomendação é uma banda chamada HellHole. Beyond Reasonable e Far from Heaven pra mim são albuns incríveis. Greetings from Brazil. My recommendation is a band called HellHole. Beyond Reasonable and Far from Heaven for me are incredible albums.

That's true. Even Japan had bands like Sabbat and Sigh.

That’s so cool!! Good luck with everything😁
Metal is it's own genre. It's like saying that everything is a subgenre of blues because everything came from it.
That’s true
