Dimmu Borgir 'greatest hits'

[MardyAss]

A dude recently came to me and asked if I could burn him a cd with some great Dimmu B. tunes.
The problem is that I'm not a DB fan, so I have got no idea which songs to choose.

Can anyone suggest 10-15 songs that I should get and would satisfy the dude?

Dude i"ll give you a decent list, you'll probably need some other peoples help as well though.
1. Progenies of the Great Apocalypse
2. Vredesbyrd
3. Puritania
4. Allegiance
5. Blessings upon the Throne of Tyranny
6. Eradication Instincts Defined
7. For the World to Dictate our Death
8. Mourning Palace
9. Kings of the Carnival Creation
10. Hybrid Stigmata
11. Spellbound
12. Unorthodox Manifesto

Thats what i would do.

well, here's my opinion;

Fear and Wonder
Raabjorn Speiler Draugheimens Skodde

Stormblast
Entrance
In Death's Embrace
Mourning Palace

Progenies of the Great Apocalypse
Eradication Instincts Defined

 

[Henrik Main]

I would've ignored the above list if I were you (Stoner's, that is - ScupltedCold were faster than I was). There are almost only new songs on that one, lots of the old classics are missed out. This is what I would do:

2. Stormblåst
3. Over Bleknede Blåner Til Dommedag
4. Allegiance
5. Raabjørn Speiler Draugheimens Skodde
6. Kings Of The Carnival Creation
7. In Death's Embrace
8. Sympozium
9. Alt Lys Er Svunnet Hen
10. The Insight And The Catharsis
11. Tormentor Of Christian Souls
12. Under Korpens Vinger
13. Eradication Instincts Defined

 

[NocturnalSun]

whaaa? a DB faves album but no Kings of Carnival Creation? oooh man u better add that in for that double-bass coordination sweetness. the guitar-drum coordination is unstoppable in that song

 

[Henrik Main]

Everyone has added KOTCC to their lists, though.. Look more carefully.

Something like this:

1. Alt Lys Er Svunnet Hen
2. Broderskapets Ring
3. Når Sjelen Hentes Til Helvete
4. Sorgens Kammer
5. Da Den Kristne Satte Livet Til
6. Stormblåst
7. Antikrist
8. Dødsferd
9. Vinder Fra En Ensom Grav
10. Gud's Fortapelse - Åpenbaring Av Dommedag
