I’m convinced that nearly each blogger knows that problem: you want to write an article about something that you discovered or expierenced and while doing some research or working on the article you get lost in the world wide web and/or the topic itself.

In fact I wanted to write this article a couple of weeks ago as I found a taiwanese black metal. The band is called ChthoniC and I found it by chance. While checking out some online resources, amongst others last.fm.

While browsing through the similiar artists of ChthoniC I had the chance to discover a few more asian black/death metal bands that I would like to share with you. In the end I decided to write a whole article series of at least five parts.

Each part will cover bands from a specific country, namely Taiwan¹, China, Japan and Korea. The articles will mainly focus on black and death metal bands and will also feature some gothic or doom metal bands as well as metalcore.

Here is the planned article list:

1. Part 1: Taiwan
2. Part 2: Korea
3. Part 3: China
4. Part 4: Japan
5. Part 5: Others

So stay tuned and come back for the first article which will be posted soon.
