Voidgaze

Voidgaze is an atmospheric and introspective subgenre of black metal that marries the core elements of its parent genre—blast beats, tremolo-picked guitar riffs, and shrieking vocals—with ethereal, ambient textures and an emphasis on emotional depth. The term, evocative of staring into an abyss, captures the music's capacity to conjure images of vast cosmic landscapes and invoke feelings of existential contemplation. Voidgaze artists often experiment with dissonance, progressive structures, and post-metal influences, crafting soundscapes that are as expansive as they are intense. Through layers of sound that range from the majestic to the otherworldly, voidgaze offers a journey that is as much about inner reflection as it is about exploring the outer darkness.
