Dimmu Borgir....

[skyshock1]

I like 'em!!!!

Anyone else with me? That Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia album kicked my ass. Can't wait for the next one!

Anyone have the DVD? How is it?

 

[Bleakest Harvest]

I think PME is a pretty decent album. Wears a tad thin after a while, but good nonetheless.

Haven't seen the DVD yet but a friend of mine claims he's going to get it soon so maybe then...

 

[Skull_Punk]

Everything I've heard off of PEM rocks. It's on my "to get" list as well.

I hope to get the DVD soon as well. Kinda risky only being a recent fan of them, but why the hell not?

 

[Staffan]

Enthroned darkness triumphant is awesome!!

 

[Morgour]

theyre fuckin amazing, i just got done listening to them, the guitar work is incredible

 

[inferenzum]

PEM is awesome, I just wish they'd done a few more songs like "puritania"... but that's just me. Another cool band, although not much like DB is December Wolves

 

[EvilGenius]

When I was heavy into black metal I checked out Dimmu, but I never really liked them. They're unique in they're genre, I'll give em that, but then again with their recent release, I'm not too sure they would be considered BM anymore. They're okay I guess...

 

[Affinity]

If you like Dimmu, you need to get there 1st 2 albums, For All Tid, and Stormblast! Amazing!!!

 

[[KOTNO]Narrot]

the old stuff is cool...the newer stuff is...well....not my stuff...haha....

 

[Silent Screams]

I like all their stuff, and I probably like Stormblast and PEM the best.

The DVD is really good too, lots of stuff on it (including some older live songs, which was great to see) Well worth it!

 

[Fyhed]

dont listen to Dimmu, listen to Emperor instead...


Dimmu suck willies, and the guitar work?

SHITE!

 

[Morfiend]

Dimmu is a great band, I especially like their PEM and EDT albums. PEM kicks your ass from start to finish and the production is top notch, I especially like the song "Blessings upon the throne of tyranny". EDT is the more melodic of the two and the keyboarding sequences sound really cool, "Entrance" is one of their best songs.

 

[phon1c]

Dimmu aren't comparable to emperor, and the guitar work's no worse than emperor's.

(yes I realise the contradiction)

 

[ffanatic]

Not a big fan of their earlier stuff, but EDT, and PEM are quite good.

 

[inferenzum]

I'd rather listen to music than to squealing pigs and tortured felines set to tin-can blastbeats, which is why I listen to DB and not Emperor

 

[IcedEarth556]

I agree with Inferenzum. I have two Emperor albums and I hate them both. On the other hand I have two Dimmu Borgir albums and I really like both of them.

 

[blakmetalemp]

I cant honestly say Dimmu arent as good as Emperor but I still love them. Enthrone and Purtitanical are my favs. The dvd is pretty cool stuff too.

 

[requiem]

The DVD is well worth checking out, even if you're only familiar with PEM. It's got plenty of PEM tracks as well as a reasonable selection from the previous two. Not much for fans of 'For All Tid' or 'Stormblast'. All in all a very good dvd, although they can be pretty immature at times and sometimes not in a funny way.

DB's last three albums are all amazing as far as I'm concerned. Definitely a great band and they only seem to be getting better.

 

[enigma_nocurnus]

Dimmu definately kick ass, and are one of my fave bands.
But they are not even comparable to Emperor.
Dimmu are tight musicians and manage to achieve quite an atmosphere while at the same sounding heavy, but there music lacks the maturity and vision that is present in Emperor's music. Particularly the last 2 albums.
Isahn's sense of composition and the way he approaches it still blows me out.
Simply put, the slay!!

Trent! how's it going man?

How are things in Tassie?
