It seems pretty obvious to me that most people who really dislike Dimmu Borgir simply don't like the image they've got.
Not one of you people have said that you hate the vocals, or the drumming is poor, or the atmosphere isn't strong enough. You've just stated that they're 'manufactured' and 'in it for the money'.
Do you like bands for their music? Or for their fiscal integrity?
Or is it, because they're black metal they have to conform to the crappy production that Darkthrone (who I enjoy by the way) are so fond of.....
I love Mayhem, Darkthrone, Thorns, Emperor, and Dimmu and Cradle etc...
It's all just music.
So what if you didn't get your interview.... boofuckinghoo. So what if they get 12,500 for playing that gig? That doesn't impact on the quality of their music.
