Creature Presents . . . Peter Beste. In the last two decades a bizarre and
violent musical subculture called black metal has merged in Norway.
Its roots stem from a heavy blend of horror films, extreme heavy metal music,
Satanism, pagan mythology, and adolescent angst. In the early-mid 1990's,
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 spent seven years photographing this insulated and secretive community.
