Do any of you really like black metal?

I've been listening to some latley, Taake and Lugubrum. Lugubrum is like normal black metal with some Jazz, like it has a saxophone in it and stuff like that

I like Celtic Frost. I occasionally listen to Vintersorg and Dimmu Borgir, too.

I also like Venom. I know they're not really black metal, but still.
