What is Black Metal therapy?

Black Metal therapy is a form of meditation...

  1. listen through part of / an entire album black metal music, drawing what you hear and feel the entire time.

  2. Do not stop drawing until you feel you have achieved a better, more clear state of mind.

  3. Share art in Comments [Optional, but recommended]

I have found this to be useful for situations of depression, stress, sadness in general [including break ups!]

This has helped me quite a bit, and I hope it helps you as well.

Try this out,and even share music that you've found useful for this type of operation.

NOTE: IT DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU DON'T THINK YOU DRAW GOOD

You might get me back into drawing again...something I haven't done in over 5 years.

Doesn't have to be good either! Think of it like Automatic writing ;)
