L'Arc-en-Ciel (Laruku)

Black Metal Musik Setankah????

Kenapa musik blackmetal disebut musik para pemuja setan ???

*Karena lambang/simbol darah,tengkorak,iblis yang mereka kenakan ???
*Karena pakaian yang mereka kenakan serba hitam yang dikaitkan dengan kegelapan ???
*Dan mungkin ada yang berpendapat karena ritual2 yang mereka lakukan sebelum melakukan aksi panggungnya seperti membakar kemenyan,meminum darah ???

kalo emang itu jawabannya,buat apa para pumuja setan itu bermain musik ???
