About the book I worked on this book over a period of five years, beginning in 1999, and published it with my own hard earned cash early 2004. During those years I contacted a lot of people that were involved and knowledgable about the Dutch black metal scene. I established contact with many bands from that time and before, and compiled all information I found into the only printed reference guide solely dedicated to Dutch black metal. The Encyclopedia of Dutch Black Metal contains extensive biographical and discographical coverage in English of over 200 bands, alphabetically ordered on more than 100 professionally printed, glossy, black and white, A4-sized pages, containing more than 60 illustrations and 150 band logo's...

You can print them at home, as add-ons to the book, since they cannot be ordered. Get
