“So good. Lovely memoirs of those old times and interesting new stuff. Dayal’s done a really great job with this book.” 

Nuclear Holocausto Vengeance (Beherit)

 

“A brilliantly written book – mandatory if you have any interest in the genre, or want to explore a new world.” 

Hvall (Windir / Vreid)

 

“A unique, insightful and fun read.” 

Blasphemer (Aura Noir, ex-Mayhem)

 

“A testament for future generations, compiled with sincerity of effort and high class aesthetics.” 

The Magus (Necromantia)

 

“This is a very insightful work: Without doubt the ultimate book on the subject, a testimony of black metal and a good introduction for neophytes.” 

Vorph (Samael)

 

“A valuable educational piece of dark writing.” 

Sakis Tolis (Rotting Christ)

 

“There are quite a few books on black metal on the market these days but this one is totally different. This is not a typical disc-guide book. This is not a book that only focuses on those inner circle myths. This is an in-depth and very well researched book that overlooks the world of black metal.” 

Mirai Kawashima (Sigh)

 

“No need to write any more books about black metal after this one.” 

Svein Egil Hatlevik (Fleurety / Dodheimsgard)

 

“Dayal Patterson took what is probably the only reasonable approach to the task: he let the artists speak for themselves. If you are prepared to pick up a book this size, then you probably are enough of a fan to be glad you did.” 

Fabban (Aborym)

 

“Free from sensationalist hyperbole it contains a dizzying array or detail, anecdotes, photographs and contextualisation of the landmark artists within the genre - all delivered with Dayal’s fluid prose and dry wit. A huge undertaking that oozes passion, this lengthy tome stands tall as the definitive book on the black metal genre.”

The Watcher (Fen / Fellwarden)

 

“Without doubt the best book about black metal I’ve ever read. Actually I could probably say it’s the only book about metal worth reading!” 

Cernunnus (Manes)

 

“A definitive and essential piece of writing, exposing a genre that has drastically evolved since Black Sabbath and Venom left their stain on the world.” 

Venien (VON)

 

“You don’t have to read between the lines anymore ‘cause it’s all there, straight from the source.” 

Silenoz (Dimmu Borgir)
