yeah it seems like in Europe they are a little faster to lump everything into the "pagan metal" category rather than separate it. I guess the term pagan metal has been around longer there. Pagan Metal has more to do with lyrical content than sounRAB though, a lot is just Black Metal. I'm still a pretty big Nokturnal Mortum, Graveland/worm, Hateforest etc fan, its just a different sound.
