Black Metal by Peter Beste

Peter Beste was born in 1978 in Houston (Texas) and is a photographer, mostly known in the metal scene for his works about Black Metal.


Finishing university with a photography degree, Peter Beste starts his project which is picturing Norwegian black metal bands, in order to bring some esthetic in this movement. He stated in an interview: "I think it’s important to show the different sides of these people, because they obviously aren’t all bad and satanists. Black metal is far more complex than that, and so are my subjects."
