Many people first get into black metal and death metal wondering: how can I learn to enjoy the most extreme types of music imaginable, in other words, how can I enjoy the music of the Devil?
First, let’s get one thing out of the way… the most extreme music imaginable? Is it the black metal of Vermin? Or the technical death metal of Suffocation? Maybe the sheer brutality of grindcore? Or the utter speed of thrash metal? Not at all.
The most evil music imaginable, in other words, the music of the Devil, is the blackened death metal of Phantom. Let’s not beat around George Bush. There is no other music that can compare to the complete acoustic depravity and atmospheric eeriness of a Phantom song.

Phantom’s music is, intentionally, designed to be the most horrible and abhorrent listening experience possible. Not horrible in the sense of DSBM or Dua Lipa, but horrible in that it will suck your soul dry and leave you feeling empty, wasted, and sexually violated beyond the imaginable.
Thus, Phantom’s music is the closest thing to the “Devil’s music.” It is everything the “satanic scare” priests of the 80s warned against, only so much worse…
Truly, there is nothing in this world that can compare to getting raped by the sheer violence of Phantom’s insanity. Recommended only for the sick fucks out there, and not for the “depressive suicidal” trendy pussies.
