Christian Black Metal

I recently discovered Poems Of Shadows and Impaled Baphomet...and I kind of dig them. Who are some other quality Christian black metal bands?

Hey - what is Christian Black Metal? I could be naive, but I thought Black Metal was called Black Metal becasue of the "spirit" of the music. Is it actually just the style of music?

The term has sort of been accepted as simply a name for a genre, though I still here people refer to some Christian black metal bands and Un-black metal.

I still hail Extol as the greatest Christian black metal/un-black metal band. I know there will be people saying "Extol isn't black metal, they're death metal". I'm no expert, but I still stubbornly view them as black metal. I don't even see the debate.

I haven't ever heard it be called Black Metal, but I've heard Un-Black Metal though.

I found several un-black (I guess that works just as well) bands that I totally dig.

Divine Symphony are really good in my opinion. The previously mentioned Poems Of Shadow and Impaled Baphomet are not bad. I also discovered Indwelling, Dark Procession and Flaskavsae. those last two are self-proclaimed darkwave and are really interesting.

I picked up Extol's Burial and it is incredible.

You should take a listen to their Undecieved album. I don't listen to as much metal anymore, but I still consider this album to be one of the best I have ever heard.

And, if you have the chance, pick up any of their EP's. They are amazing as well.

Undeceived in my opinion is their best album as well. Extol is quite brilliant.

I am also a fan of Antestor as far as this genre goes.

Amazing! Although, I felt like their "Return of the Black Death" album was a little dry. Their latest one.... I forgot the name of it, it came out in either 2005 or 2006, was amazing.
Oh, and you can't forget Lengsel! They were pretty amazing. I guess they are considered black metal?

I'd also like to emphasize Extol's Undeceived album. The title song, Undeceived, is one of the most brutal metal songs I have ever heard. The eerie intro is brilliant, highly recommend it.

Did you ever hear their Mesmerized EP? It is amazing too. It is a sort of mix between Undeceived and Burial. It hada kinda of a fresh new sound. I think they were pretty ahead of their time.

Woe of Tyrants

More of a melodic unblack metal, but they're amazing.
