hotographer Peter Beste has issued the following update:
"In the last two decades a bizarre and violent musical subculture called black metal has emerged in Norway. Its roots stem from a heady blend of horror films, extreme heavy metal music, Satanism, pagan mythology, and adolescent angst. In the early-mid 1990s, members of this extremist underground committed murder, burned down medieval wooden churches, and desecrated graveyards. What started as a juvenile frenzy came to symbolize the start of a war against Christianity, a return to the worship of the ancient Norse gods, and the complete rejection of mainstream society.
"I have spent the last seven years photographing in this insulated and secretive community.
"'True Norwegian Black Metal', a 208-page hardcover photography book, will be released via Vice Books in May 2008."
