National Socialist black metal

National Socialist Black Metal is a subgenre of Black Metal concerned with ideas of racial separatism and the Aryan race, derived from Nazism. Most bands of this type of Black Metal have adopted variations (with varying degrees of authenticity) of pagan beliefs and traditions, believing them to face destruction by Christian beliefs. The bands are popular among disaffected youth and Neo-Nazi groups.

Bands include Burzum, Thor's Hammer and Kataxu.
