Hi-End for Black Metal?


Hello!

I am 33 and come from Russia. My passion is heavy music, namely Black Metal. I find it fascinating. I feel like a hermit because those friends of mine which are audiophiles do not like black metal. And those friends which like black metal (actually, play it even in bands!) couldn't care less about high quality audio gear.

Are there any people like me who own hi-fi/hi-end equipment to listen to heavy metal genres?

I disagree with most of what you say in your thread.
What has the hell has intellect got to do with creating music?

Sheer balderdash.
I agree re AC/DC. I don't own any of their music and would never buy it, but when it comes on the radio I have to CRANK IT! Back in Black came out when I was in high school, so I guess there's a bit of nostalgia involved.

I always felt, that a connection was quite clear.
"balderdash"- that's a new one, never heard it before
Mapman- good to see you on this thread.

For myself, I have a hard time with Black Metal. I want to like it, but most of it that I've heard is pretty bad.

Map- Porcupine Tree flirts with metal as much as they do with Pink Floyd and King Crimson. If you like Steven Wilson and Porcupine Tree, then check out the Opeth albums "Blackwater Park" and "Deliverance" Wilson produced both, and plays on them a bit.

Death to False Metal (just kidding)
