About the Bb locrian scale
The Locrian mode is the darkest and most unstable of the seven diatonic modes. Its diminished fifth makes even the tonic chord feel unresolved. While rarely used as a tonal center, Locrian is important for improvising over half-diminished chords in jazz and for creating extreme tension in metal.
