Swiss band Celtic Frost rose from the ashes of Hellhammerin 1984. They are considered to be one of the bands that paved the way for a darker black metal genre, along with Venomand Mercyful Fate; however, they are not considered a black metal band. Their sound is more accurately described as blackened thrash metal. Their 1987 album Into The Pandemonium was revolutionary in the sense that it was one of the first pieces of music to combine elements of heavy metal with gothic and operatic elements. This paved the way for the so-called "beauty-and-the-beast" doom metal bands of the 1990s and some avant-garde metal bands.

Procreation (of The Wicked) Lyrics

Celtic Frost

You are blind - Deny the sun and light
Whose are the objections - From where come the doubts
Evidence of infinity
Procreation of the wicked
Twist of the known
Procreation of the wicked
Serenades of opposition - Absurdity, humans fate and hope
True reflections of community - Procreation of the gods and lords
Evidence of infinity
Procreation of the wicked
Twist of the known
Procreation of the wicked
Cain and Abel's love and death - Love and hate is what we are
Dagger and grail are- Fallen of the altar
Evidence of infinity
Procreation of the wicked
Twist of the known
Procreation of the wicked
"Mysteries of perversity"
"I've killed this old man, because he limped
I've done it because he shouldn't have to do it"
If god raised the abyss - you'd procreate your own
Abolism of death is - Abolism of life
Evidence of infinity
Procreation of the wicked
Twist of the known
Procreation of the wicked
