Symphonic Black Metal

Symphonic Black Metal is essentially the Black Metal equivalent of Melodic Death Metal, only (as the name states) is more related to a symphony.

Symphonic Black Metal uses Guitar, Bass, Drums, Keyboards, and on occasions Symphony instruments such as Violins, Cellos, etc.
Dimmu Borgir is my favorite Symphonic Black Metal band.

Acoustic Black Metal

The most satanically blasphemous type of music known to exist. It is meant to praise the Necrowizard, and promote his unholy vision of Planet Norway! Some great ABM bands are: Impaled Northern Moonforest, ORGH, Nocturnal Blasphemy, Fjord of Fury, Morkk Pikk, Satanic Necrokvlt Lord, Inverted Blasphemous Moongoats of Norway etc.

depressive black metal

A sub genre of the black metal art, where the music plays a very dark, almost depressing atmosphere that gives you the gloomy, sad impression on life, depressing you with the desperate cry of haunted screams, to the slow, suicidal vibe of guitars. Good examples of depressive black metal are Nocturnal Depression, Make A Change...Kill Yourself, Xasthur, and Shining.
Nocturnal Depression's "Soundtrack To A Suicide" is a very bleak, depressive black metal album.

Vegan Black Metal Chef

Vegan Black Metal Chef is an up-and-coming YouTube celeb. The creator of the videos dresses in a manner similar to Gene Simmons of KISS, with white face paint and black streaks around his eyes, and wears a black suit of armor. Clearly, he's also influenced by such real-life black metal bands as Mayhem, Burzum, and Dark Throne. Thus far, he has only posted two videos ("Pad Thai" and "Easy Meal Ideas of the Ages"), yet the first video alone has received over 1 million views and spawned imitators. He has also been referenced on quite a few food-related blogs. And finally, in true black metal style, the videos/songs are at least 12-15 minutes long!

true norwegian black metal

The original form of Black Metal, famous for its satanic lyrical content as well as its lo-fi hardedge musical backing.

Black Metal its purist form. Used to reference bands such as Emperor, Mayhem, DarkThrone, Burzum, and more recently Gorgoroth and Immortal. Newer bands in the third wave of black metal do NOT qualify as True Norwegian Black Metal. (sorry Dimmu)

hipster black metal

Equal to "Transcendental Black Metal" because the band is made up of pretentious hipsters who focus on life giving themes instead of Satanism, Darkness, Death, Anger, or Sorrow; and consider themselves higher than other, more kvlt, bands who wear corpse paint. Other traits of Hipster Black Metal is a focus on burst beats (just different drum beats in a song, not actually a type of drumming) and artsy music videos filled with non-kvlt themes like an airplane flight or live performance with out kick ass corpse paint.
Hipster1: Oh dude! This new album from (insert generic hipster black metal band name like "Liturgy")?!
Hipster2: No, what's it about?
Hipster1: Awh man! It is about life and how great it is! It's totally anti-corpse paint as well.
