Is this album part of a trilogy?
No. There are three trilogies: black, white and grey. They were recorded between 2019 and 2021.
The album was written in six days from scratch. The track Godlike Nonperformance was written on paper without playing an instrument. I've only done that a couple of times. The titles include religious terminology, but the intention was to subvert cliches.
Vengeful Semblance is both classical and black metal at the same time. That's what black classical means. I want to make my own kind of music. Style is not the reason.
What is so boring about today's avant-garde black metal bands is that the dissonance is too obvious. It's like they discovered it yesterday and started mindlessly molesting their instruments. There's nothing surprising about it. Some of them just can't write music to save their lives.
There's nothing wrong with memorable music. You don't have to think in opposites or obsess over theories. An album is pointless if you can't remember anything distinct about it.
Black metal has many problems and one of them is the fact that it attracts childish imbeciles. The internet is filled with brainless jackoffs who think they're the biggest fanatics. They don't know anything. Fanaticism is not the answer. It gives you the same tired old crap over and over again.
Without musical innovation we wouldn't have black metal in the first place. That kind of innovation has to continue. There is no other way.
