Red and Anarchist black metal (abbreviated as RABM)〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=RABM )〕 is a form of black metal music performed by artists who promote Marxist, socialist, communist or anarchist ideology in their lyrics. RABM was formed as a reaction to National Socialist black metal (NSBM) by left-leaning metalheads〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.metalunderground.com/news/details.cfm?newsid=73109 )〕 analog to Red and Anarchist Skinheads. Therefore, RABM is a self-description. ==History== Throughout the emergence of black metal and specifically its second wave in Norway, political topics were typically avoided. Those such as Varg Vikernes kept political topics separate from their music〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://static.twoday.net/oraclesyndicate/files/how%20black%20is%20black%20metal1.pdf )〕 although no evidence suggests that many of those with political views held serious left-wing ideologies. The closest and often most-cited example in the Norwegian scene was Euronymous of the influential band Mayhem who self-identified with the communism practiced by Joseph Stalin and Pol Pot. Although a part of various organizational groups, Euronymous maintained that the ideology of these authoritarian governments was a part of his misanthropist belief system, and as such, his legitimacy as a true communist has often been debated and dismissed. As the Norwegian black metal scene began to dismantle itself, climaxing in the arrest of Varg for the killing of Euronymous and burning several churches, various other scenes across the world began to spring up. A variety of these scenes that were heavily influenced by Nazi punk eventually created the existence of what is now known as National Socialist black metal or "NSBM" for short. Bands such as Absurd considered NSBM to be the logical conclusion to the second-wave black metal scene. One of the first bands to cross crust punk with black metal was Iskra from Victoria, British Columbia, who formed there in 2002.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=ISKRA INTERVIEW for Crackfix Propaganda )〕 Iskra's ideology has been based on firm anti-capitalism, anarchism, and anti-globalization and often is considered one of the first notable RABM bands. Although not specifically stated, bands in the "Cascadian Black Metal" scene focused on the North American west coast are often linked to RABM for their emphasis on environmental topics. Bands like Wolves in the Throne Room are not usually considered RABM; despite their crust punk influence like many black metal bands they have mostly distanced themselves from politics other than acknowledging Pentti Linkola's inspiration in an interview for Asgard Roots magazine, without overtly identifying with his ideology which has been considered by many to be "eco-fascist". Environmental romanticism is widespread across both ends of the political spectrum in the black metal scene as well as in the lyrical content of bands who are more apolitical in nature. Unlike NSBM, the RABM scene is more of a loose network of individuals who share common goals. This is exemplified through websites such as blogspot who host a variety of blogs that are specifically tailored to RABM or left-wing metal in general. The blog R-A-B-M.blogspot.com was spawned out of a Last.FM group in 2009 and since then has been a host for many bands across the world who wish to share their music to a left-leaning crowd. The blog specifically states that it did not coin the term RABM and the first mention of it appears to be in 2005 on another forum. Thus, the real definition of the term has become a new trend. The release of various compilations in the 2010s by collective efforts such as the ones from the Black Metal Alliance and other loosely affiliated groups have signified a growing cohesive RABM scene. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Red and Anarchist black metal」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
