BLACK METAL FRIDAY III – Arckanum – Gava Fran Trulen BLACK METAL FRIDAY
It just wouldn’t feel like the beginning of the weekend without it.
Today’s feature is a little group that hails from Sweden. Rocking the praises of their dark lord since 1993, Arckanum is unique because their lyrics/screams are written in ancient Swedish. Take that, Peter, Bjorn, and John.
This video breaks all stereotypes that I previously harbored against black metal. This video features just one gothic sojourner (we’ll call him Jim), instead of the usual merry troupe. Also absent is the signature face paint, which Jim seemed to have swapped for a gilded hockey mask. Classy.
The thing that really stands out in the video is what seems to be the endless supply of weapons Jim has tucked away. The best moment of the video is when the sword and the axe are out and the choreography begins. Do Satanists do human videos too? I hope so.
I live for Black Metal Fridays.
