Black Metal fans (or those of Metal in general) often abhor the thoughts of electronic music or even - gasp! - "dance" beats.
While the Techno crowd usually stays clear of anything associated with guitars - "no more f**king rock'n'roll" was one of the credos of the early Techno movement in Germany.
And yeah if you mix up Black Metal with uplifiting Trance for dazed club kids... maybe won't work too well.
But with Hardcore Techno it's a bit different, at least this side of the more mainstream releases. It's a wide-ranging genre.
And the "dangerous" Hardcore, Speedcore underground always had plenty of Death Metal, Black Metal, Grindcore influences, and fans, too!
But straight crossovers are still rare.
So this is an attempt to blend (or bleed) these two genres together.
Slow, doomed, distorted Hardcore Techno instrumentation.
Crashes into Black Metal riffs.
