The pentagram in heavy metal music
|
Norways Dimmu Borgir, a "Melodic Black Metal", band from 1994 to the present, have adopted all of the trappings of the heavy metal and goth music community, with a certain original flair. While the pentagram is a common motif, the hexagram, or Star of David, is rarely seen in this context.

Conrad Lant, Antony Lant and Jeff Dunn released their debut album "Welcome to Hell" in 1981 (Neat), a landmark in satanic black metal music. The pentagram would not reappear on their cover art until "Metal Black" was released in 2006 on the Sanctuary label.
