The first black metal song was released in 1969.
>screamed/shrieked vocals
>war drums that wouldn't sound out of place in a down-paced Bathory or Darkthrone song
>abbrassive, trebley, droning guitar
>lyrics about human sacrifice and the occult

It's a shame this is the only worthwhile track on the album. Very forward thinking.

Yeah, I was also disappointed to learn that the album is trash. Caledonia is a fantastic song, though.

Nah it's really good
>>73084073
Holy shit. More like this? From this era?
>>73084073

Vocals sound like Cradle Of Filth. This shit is insane.

How is it not even close?

Jacula maybe? They're also lumped into the proto-proto-black metal basket, but they're nowhere near as noisy as Cromagnon.
>>73084420
because it sounds nothing like black or proto-black metal
i'm tired of this dude it has harsh vocals so it's black metal lmao
fuck off

You seriously couldn't hear Bathory playing something like this? Obviously with electric guitar instead of bagpipes.

maybe in his "viking" metal era

>screamed/shrieked
he's whispering anon. also, this sounds nothing like bm. it's not even in a minor key
Did they ever do anything after this album?

There are at least three vocal tracks. One is whispered, one is sung/spoken, and one is shrieked.
Bumping for more proto-proto black metal.
This doesn't sound like black metal. Sounds kinda like Current 93 though.
