Raw black metal is a subgenre of black metal that emphasizes lo-fi production, harsh vocals, and aggressive instrumentation. It often features fast-paced tremolo picking on guitars, blast beats on drums, and distorted bass. The lyrics typically focus on themes of darkness, nihilism, and anti-religion. The genre is known for its raw and unpolished sound, which is achieved through the use of minimal production techniques.
