"Vampirism And Contemporary Music"In last 30 years there has been great evolving of genres like hard rock, heavy metal, modern instrumental, dark, gothic, black and their combinations.
Dark: musically very melodic with simple rhythms, not necessary slow, conceptually talking about love and death, heart suffering, described in non pathetic and very poetic way.
Gothic: in some ways very similar to dark, but more intense. Singing about heavy pains, musically very contrasting (gentle female vocal with rough guitars background or vice versa: rough male vocal with symphonic background. Sometimes duets with female lyric vocal and grunting male voice) that means relation between pain/hope, dark/light, hate/love, death/life, etc.
Black: in this concept has nothing to do with afro music, but with satanism, death and anti church concepts.
Vampires in poetry and art are considered as probably most romantic creatures. What makes them so fascinating is probably their malediction, creatures that can't die, can't see the sun, creatures that have to drink human blood to survive and most of all, their loneliness and enigma that makes them in certain way even sexually attractive.
