Hey fellow lemmings, I've recently watched some documentries and read some articles that made me more aware of the existence of NSBM. I love metal, both the music and the culture but I don't want to hear anything related to that specific scene.

I don't want to dicuss the morality of the subject, I just wish to know how I can easily identify if a band I'm listening to is problematic.

I'm aware of Metallum, but that is not always reliable and easily accessible. I am also not able to detect the themes in the lyrics, tbh most of the time I can barely even understand what the vocalist is saying. Thank you all in advance

Yeah but that only works for bands that are popular enough that someone wrote an article about.

That sounds more to my taste haha, do you have any recommendations?

Loads :) some of these are not explicitly anti-fascist but they're non problematic.

Panopticon
Wolves In The Throne Room
Blackbraid
Dawn Ray'd
Iskra
The Infernal Sea
Azel's Mountain
Mizmor
Gaerea
Nahasheol
Auld

There's also the Anti Fascist Black Metal YouTube channel which showcases antifa black (and other) metal - gets lots of new releases.
