* CarefulWithThatAxe: Comes with the territory of being a black metal act, but given the band’s SopranoAndGravel vocal styles, this trope seems a bit more pronounced here than is typical for the genre.
Added DiffLines:
* MoodWhiplash: Songs can transition from blues and gospel style to BlackMetal on a dime.
Added DiffLines:
* SopranoAndGravel: Alternates soulful clean singing with some ''intense'' {{Metal Scream}}s. Notably, the vocals are so well executed that some critics initially assumed that Gagneux had sampled them from old soul recordings, which Gagneux sharply denies. Given that he pulls them off live, this seems unlikely.

Zeal and Ardor is an [[AvantGardeMetal avant-garde]] musical group created in 2013 by Swiss-American musician Manuel Gagneux. It combines elements of {{blues}}, {{gospel|Music}}, traditional African-American spirituals, and BlackMetal. The idea for this unusual combination originated on 4chan’s music board, when Gagneux was challenged to create a song combining black metal and traditional black American music. Gagneux has also stated that a significant idea behind the project was asking what would have happened if African slaves had embraced Satanism rather than Christianity.
