Hey man,

I give that respect because I can't write in any language besides English, but I am impressed that you are fluent enough to do that.

I do have one question though, I can't make sense out of why black metal and dark music in general is so popular in Scandinavia- from what I know of Norway, Finland, and Sweden, social problems are relatively under control, disparity of wealth is nowhere near what it is in this dump I call home (USA) and when I have travelled, I've found that people in Europe and especially northern Europe are generally nicer than here in the States. I'm not saying there aren't problems there, but for the most part, if I were thinking of a place I would want to live, Scandinavia or Holland come to mind, so it's just curiousity as to why the darkest of dark music is so popular there.

peace
