1) An umbrella term for three heaviest genres of metal music (along with their subgenres): thrash metal, black metal and death metal 2) A convenient term to label the music of bands who tend to incorporate all three of the above influences into their sound 2) A politically correct term/euphemism used to label black metal which happens not to be "black" enough for the trve kvlt people to acknowledge it as such. Hence, some formerly black metal bands who later shifted towards a more mainstream sound have adopted this term to label their own music, which later carried over to reviewers and music press.
