Corpse paint generally consists of the musician's face being covered in black and white makeup, with a bigger part of the face being white, and with other areas being black. The parts being black are very often the eye sockets, in different symmetrical shapes, but asymmetrical (being seemingly random painted) occurs as well. The patterns are used as trademarks for the musicians who use corpse paint, and change very seldom. Only rarely do musicians use other colors: Gorgoroth and Ragnarok use blood-colored paint, Attila Csihar of Mayhem, and formerly of Tormentor, uses neon colors, while the Norwegian band Dødheimsgard has experimented using other colors.
