, well at least it's an improvement from DCA from what I've heard.

 

[entanglement]

DCA was humongously atrocious.

Ok, I'm two songs into this thing, and yes, it's not the same cheesy, jerry bruckheimer black metal we've heard before. However, it's unbelievably boring. I mean, I just had a cup of coffee and I'm falling asleep.

For me its a bit of a grower album. I've listened to it several times and I like it. It's not great but it's good. Better than the last album certainly.

As far as bonus tracks go - The Heretic Hammer is far better than The Ancestral Fever. I'm probably not going to buy the album, but should I, at least I live in Canada. However, I don't see why there should be two editions with two different bonus tracks.

im gonna see them like 5 hours from now. im not a fan of them but maybe seeing them live, may change that.

Yeah I listened to it a second time today and it was better. Glad I could get my money's worth.

Here's a setlist from an April 21st show, mostly the same for the rest of the tour I imagine.

Intro
Progenies of the Great Apocalypse
Vredesbyrd
Cataclysm Children
Kings of the Carnival Creation
Sorgens Kammer del II
Indoctrination
A Succubus in Rapture
The Serpentine Offering
Drum solo
The Chosen Legacy
The Insight and the Catharsis
Spellbound
Mourning Palace
The Fallen - Outro

A bit too much EDT stuff, but a great setlist regardless.

Imo Dimmu Borgir died after Stian Aarstad their keyboardist for their first two albums left. Now they're just commercial sounding without him.

 

[Zephyrus]

[Zephyrus]

I don't think they used an orchestra on this one. I can't find anything about it in the booklet notes.

 

[genocide roach]

it doesnt sound like a keyboard. maybe a top of the line computer program, but why? especially since theyve used one the last couple albums

Fucking PWND!

 

[Gold]

decent album not much better than death cult :/

 

[jackson89]

zephyrus, the setlist that you listed is pretty much the same as the one they played. i dont know too many kataklysm songs but they played: (not in right order)
As I Slither
Where the Enemy Sleeps
Crippled and Broken
Like Angels Weeping
Shadows and Dust

and maybe they played 1 or 2 other songs

 

[beast from the east]

Haven't heard the entire album yet, but the tracks I heard sound good, pretty much like DCA. The one song I heard seems to have a lot of Simen's clean vocals, which I like a lot.

 

[Alcapoth]

The new Dimmu Borgir album is very, very good. Not up there with the likes of Spiritual Black Dimensions or Enthrone Darkness Triumphant, but those albums will be very hard to top.
