The most acclaimed book on the subject of black metal is reinvented and reborn.
Offering an unparalleled level of detail, BLACK METAL: EVOLUTION OF THE CULT captures the progress of the genre, from the early 80s through to its resurrection in the 90s and onwards to the fascinating scene we see today. It includes over 150 exclusive interviews with some of the biggest names in the genre, including: Venom, Mercyful Fate, Bathory, Hellhammer, Celtic Frost, Blasphemy, Darkthrone, Behemoth, Rotting Christ, Mayhem and 70 brand new interviews with the likes of Necromantia, Arcturus, Immortal, Agalloch, Destruction, Mystifier, Profanatica and Winterfylleth.
Silenoz of Dimmu Borgir commended the book: 'You don't have to read between the lines anymore 'cause it's all there, straight from the source,' while Sakis Tolis of Rotting Christ called it 'a valuable educational piece of dark writing.' Vorph of Samael added: 'This is a very insightful work: Without doubt the ultimate book on the subject, a testimony of black metal and a good introduction for neophytes.' Hvall of Windir and Vreid said: 'A brilliantly written book - mandatory if you have any interest in the genre, or want to explore a new world.'

The most authoritative and prolific writer on black metal, Dayal Patterson began documenting and interviewing bands back in the early 2000s via his fanzine, before contributing to magazines such as Terrorizer, Metal Hammer, Decibel and Zero Tolerance. Acclaimed within the genre, his books are arguably the only to be written on the subject that are endorsed by the musicians themselves and the publishing house he created in 2013 has gone on to release some 30 publications by numerous writers on the black, death and doom metal genres.
