ƚBM (INSPIRED BY BLACK METAL)

ƚBM focuses on the influence of black metal anno 2014 and is a response to the current prevalence of the genre. Not coincidentally 30 years after the establishment of legendary Norwegian black metal band Mayhem. Nor coincidentally 20 years after the release of their debut ‘De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas’ - one of the most influential black metal albums ever.

Until The Light takes Us

“As an insight into the contradictions of criminality, not to say the aestheticisation of extremity, it’s uniquely compelling.” (The Wire)

Unique (sociological) documentary about the Norwegian black metal scene that became extremely popular in the '90s and appeared in the news with tales of murder, destruction and churches set on fire by ‘satanic black metal fans’.

Laced with interviews involving key figures from the second wave of black metal, this is an intriguing portrait of a genre that is still quite influential for the current avant-garde, noise and metal scenes.

Admittance is free of charge but seats are limited, please register via reservationshuis23@abconcerts.be (making mention of ‘the light’ in the subject title)
