I have never looked at the term that way, but what you say is completely fair.

I seem to recall a time when a lot of that scene rejected the label and tried to claim it was "just black metal", but now that I think about it, I suspect they've collectively owned it these days.

I don't know what else to call it that doesn't either minimise it or need a dozen paragraphs' worth of explanation, though...

I think it's best to just call it what it is: nazi black metal or racist black metal. Anything else dresses it up. Even fully spelled out, "National Socialist Black Metal" has always struck me as far too sophisticated a label when you consider the content and the people making it. Most of them aren't threatening soldiers writing political treatises, they're sad kids LARPing as Nazis.

Spot on. A description I am undoubtedly going to steal when the opportunity arises, so thanks! :)
