Born from a fusion of creative minds within the Web3 Metal community, 'My Black Metal Baby' is a testament to the transformative power of collaboration and technology in music. 

Inspired by cinematic giants and the looming specter of a post-apocalyptic world, the track weaves a tale of rebellion, survival, and the raw quest for identity amidst societal collapse. Musically, it challenges the boundaries between genres, blending metalcore’s groove with the ferocious intensity of black metal screeches, crafting a sound as intense as the themes it explores. This song is more than just music—it’s a journey through the shadows of rebellion and an anthem for those who dare to stand against the tide.

Artistic Vision for "My Black Metal Baby" -

Foundational Inspiration:

As the founder of Web3 Metal, my journey into the world of music and blockchain was driven by a desire to directly engage with and learn from the evolving landscape of digital music. This track began as a collaboration with Dethember8, discovered through our vibrant Web3 Metal community. Our combined efforts and shared vision breathed life into the initial version of 'My Black Metal Baby.'

Creative Process and Influences:

Cinematic and Cultural References: The intro features a chilling quote from Sam Raimi’s 'Evil Dead,' setting the tone for a narrative of confrontation and survival against overwhelming odds. The announcement of the Fallout TV series sparked a burst of creativity, influencing the lyrics with post-apocalyptic and rebellious themes reminiscent of 'Natural Born Killers' and the iconic Bonnie and Clyde.

Musical Style and Delivery: Musically, the track is a fusion of metalcore and black metal, characterized by its intense vocal delivery—ranging from metalcore's rhythmic verses to piercing black metal screeches. This blend crafts a unique sound that complements the thematic depth of the lyrics.

Emotional and Thematic Depth:

The track is an emotional rollercoaster that mirrors the tumultuous journey of self-discovery and confrontation with societal expectations. It starts with a slow, haunting intro that escalates into a full-blown rebellion, portraying the internal and external conflicts that lead to self-destruction and the fallout with those closest to us.

Personal Significance:

'My Black Metal Baby' is not just a song; it's a manifesto of defiance and the declaration of an artistic identity shaped in the face of life’s chaos. This track stands as a testament to the power of collaboration within the Web3 community and the transformative impact of embracing innovative technologies in music.
