* EnsembleDarkhorse: They may qualify as one for U.S. black metal. While a lot of people love USBM overall, others... don't. Cobalt are one of the few bands in the scene who don't seem to invite polarised reactions, possibly because they manage to have a very unique sound without sacrificing any of the aggression that fans want out of the genre.

* JerkassWoobie: [=McSorley=] is arguably a real-life example. His bigoted rants are pretty difficult to forgive, pushing him into Jerkass territory, but he's also almost certainly a ShellShockedVeteran and doesn't seem to bear Fell or Wunder any ill will for being kicked out of the band, which could move him into this category for many people.

** The HiddenTrack on ''Gin'' could also count. It's a field recording of a [[WorkingOnTheChainGang prison chain gang]] singing the traditional song "Berta, Berta", and the whole time you can hear various background noises like the sound of rocks being broken apart with pickaxes, a guard shouting orders, and an AngryGuardDog barking. Nothing really happens, but the atmosphere created is surprisingly creepy.
