If nobody bothered to experiment with sound, we'd all be listening to various blends of chamber music, and maybe the odd minstrel-band. And minstrels are gay.
IMO, of course.
Also @ Fido2 & MaZa: lolwhut.

Yes, hasnt grown much, but that is also a good thing. For example some bands that have tried to modernize blackmetal sound but still keeping basic blackmetal structure, like Keep Of Kalessin, have failed miserably in my opinion. Too clean and too soulless. It just doesnt work. Blackened deathmetal like Zyklon works so much better.
But then there are bands like Negura Bunget. Fantastic and spiritual music with elements from progressive metal and such. If you havent heard them, check album OM today! This is a good direction where modern blackmetal should be headed as a music.
Also when blackmetal has influenced by other genres like ambient, products have been fantastic. Darkspace is good example. Basically blackmetal, but must be listened as ambient music. Good stuff, and like to see more of this kind of blackmetal. So yes, experimentation is a good thing in blackmetal.
TR00 blackmetal ring is getting smaller and smaller as time passes, but its also good that they do still exist aswell. Oldschool blackmetal hasnt lost its appeal. Too bad that majority of its fans are morons.

"-san" is the equivalent of "Mr.-"
It's just a formality, but it's a formality that I enjoy. Seriously, a chick calls me "Sir" and I'm all ears.
