I think I understand what you're getting at. I was like that when I first discovered black metal. I didn't really like the music, but I was interested in the history of it. I didn't expect to like black metal, because I'd always hated metal (except for early Iron Maiden). I think the only bm song I genuinely liked was Darkthrone's Transilvanian Hunger, but it wasn't available anywhere, so I just went out and bought Mayhem's Live in Leipzig.
