Is this really a subgenre of death metal? To me it seems like it's more of a description that fits certain death or black metal bands, more than a specific genre. Mr. Death 23:13, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

I don't think this should be a specific genre either. Bands using both styles' features is nothing new, but I think the moniker death/black is pretty intuitive without being made into a genre. Darkthrone, a major black band had a death metal album, so the connections between the two styles are quite clear. Ehm, omitting the (old) usual metal infighting between fans and bands

This article should be moved. It could remain as a subgenre in the Death Metal article, but like the commen above said, it's not a specific genre, but a descriptor.

I have never heard of "blackened death metal" in anywhere but Wikipedia. Sources of the term being used in media should be provided, or the page be deleted. - Quirk 13:39, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
