I don’t really know many bands that were legitimately satanic, it was usually overly moralistic groups pinning labels on them.

There are Norwegian and Swedish black metal bands who claim to legit Satanists, but I think they're just larpers using it to sell albums.

Pretty much. I loved Slayer back in the 80s and 90s, but we all knew their lyrics were just a larp and they didn’t really take it seriously. And that was before the word larp existed!

Tom Araya, the frontman, is actually a catholic.

And Jeff Hanneman, one of the guitarists, died of a spider bite. Very sad but also a very metal way to go out.
