Possessed By Black Fucking Metal
Nargaroth
The Unyielding Spirit of Black Metal
Nargaroth's song "Possessed By Black Fucking Metal" is a raw and intense homage to the roots and essence of black metal. The lyrics reflect a deep nostalgia for a time when black metal was pure, underground, and driven by a fierce spirit. The opening lines, "Once Upon A Time As Black Metal Ruled. The Blood Was Hot. The Hearts Were Strong. The Future Seems To Be Ours," evoke a sense of pride and strength that the genre once held. This period is remembered as a golden age, filled with passion and a sense of belonging among its followers.
However, the song quickly shifts to a lamentation of the present state of black metal, suggesting that it has lost its original spirit and intensity. The lines "But Nothing More Remained. Because Black Metal Died. Gone The Days Of Pure Underground. Of Spirit, Pain And Fire" express a sense of loss and disillusionment. The artist mourns the commercialization and dilution of the genre, which once thrived on its raw, unfiltered energy and underground status.
The chorus, repeating the phrase "I'm Possessed By Black Fucking Metal," serves as a powerful declaration of unwavering dedication to the true essence of black metal. It is a call to arms for those who still hold the original values of the genre close to their hearts. The song also calls for a revival of the old spirit, summoning the "Old Warriors" to cleanse the scene of falsehood and mediocrity. This militant stance underscores the artist's commitment to preserving the purity and intensity of black metal, rejecting any form of compromise or dilution.
