I think they did consider playing old Sanctuary songs, but changed their minds. They're going to play songs from ALL the albums.
Well, they haven't played anything off Dreaming Neon Black yet in Europe....

Here's hoping for Beyond Within, No More Will, and/or Poison Godmachine in SF!!!
 
Honestly, I'd rather see one of the other projects of Simen from Dimmu. He's got a killer doom act called Lamented Souls. Got a nice Candlemass-ish vibe to it.

I'm going to the SF show, but leaving after Nevermore...Dimmu Borgir are riffless crap. I wish Nevermore was headlining so we'd get longer than 50 minutes.
I agree with you about Dimmu.

Too bad this tour will not even get close to Maine, BUT, I would be leaving after Nevermore.

What are you talking about..riffless crap?? Have you listened to PEM? They have some great riffs! I'm not much into the whole black metal genre, but Dimmu is just cool. They put on an excellent show..you paid for it, you might as well stay and check out something different...:Spin:
 
Feh. They're utterly ridiculous - orchestral and synthesized crap covering up uninspired riffage. Whenever they get something good going, it takes about fifteen seconds for everything to denigrate into silly "EVIL KVLT CHEESE OF PH34R!!" keyboard-driven retardation. If you're going to do cheesy symphonic metal, get it RIGHT like Blind Guardian (at least, before the last album). This is just a wretched, screechy mish-mash of bad musical ideas with the occasional good one thrown in just to keep the listener hopeful that they'll stick with it. If I want black metal, I'll listen to Immortal or Destroyer 666; if I want symphonic metal, I'll put on Nightfall In Middle Earth or The Crimson Idol; if I want black symphonic metal, I'll hit myself because that largely sucks.

I would consider staying and just diving into the pit, but I'm taking my 12-year old sister, so that's kind of not an option. Ah well. Nevermore will return headlining eventually, I'm sure.
 
Dimmu Borgir are a talented group. That's why all these show are gonna sell out in advance. It's not because of Nevermore. You may not like DB, but is "riffless crap" really accurate now Mr. Pyrus???
