new dimmu borgir

[NocturnalSun]

are u kidding? Kings of Carnival Creation sticks out like muuug. that song has major ownage along with Puritania. A certain industrial element is added into Puritania and its very catchy

 

[LuminousAether]

PEM was ok, but very forgettable and it sucked compared to Spiritual Black Dimensions, Enthrone Darkness Triumphant, Stormblast, and The Devil's Path.

 

[NocturnalSun]

hmm I bet the old stuff could be better, but for right now, PEM is the best Dimmu ear candy I know

 

[Henrik Main]

You suck.

Quite.

 

[Akronaes]

It's rather good, but then again, it's rather dull compared to the majestic Enthrone Darkness Triumphant.

Fixed it for you.

 

[J.]

I haven't heard the new one, but everything else comes across as bubblegum black metal for goth girls.

 

[Xalon Niles]

The new cd from Dimmu Borgir is awesome. Progenies of the Great Apocalypse is my favorite track and music video from the band.

 

[MightyDrynwhyl]

Emperor Magus: you didnt bother reading my full post now did you? i said that i DOUBT and that i couldn't answer b/c i have not seen this video. read before you write next time.

 

[NocturnalSun]

haha yeah it's good to see Abbath still doing SOMETHING now that Immortal is dead...

 

[Astral Poetry]

hmm I bet the old stuff could be better, but for right now, PEM is the best Dimmu ear candy I know

And ear candy is basically all it is.

 

[MightyDrynwhyl]

isnt Abbath in a few other bands anyway? unless im mistaking them for previous projects

 

[NocturnalSun]

possibly, I haven't checked into it. Probably, yea... cuz most musicians in metal get traded off all the time and do sideprojects ALOT. look at Nick Barker, he does Old Man's CHild, Cradle of Filth, and Dimmu Borgir (some more maybe I dunn). And look at In Flames and Hammerfall's history. In Flames has had tons of people in it from different bands. Hammerfall's past includes Jesper Stromblad (In Flames, Sinergy i believe), Mikael Stanne (Dark Tranquillity), and Niklas Sundin(Dark Tranquillity), to say a few. Metals so fuckin kool in every way...

 

[LuminousAether]

Nick Barker doesn't do Cradle of Filth anymore, he hasn't been in them for years. Midian was the first with their new drummer, Adrian from At the Gates.

 

[MightyDrynwhyl]

whats the deal with cradle of filth? theres like a sort of all star lineup with dave, martin, and adrian yet theyre putting out some of the most mediocre music ive ever heard, for christ sake the new album reminds me a lot of system of a down..

 

[[X]]

yes, this album is good, but puritanical is better

 

[Episteme]

I've only heard Progenies etc etc etc. It's not bad. Older albums are better.

 

[LuminousAether]

If you think the new Cradle of Filth sounds like System of a Down you are weird. They aren't NEARLY as good as SoaD.

 

[Moonlight Butchery]

bah, tolerable... they have yet to beat For All Tid though... now THAT album had atmosphere.

 

[DiscipleOfPlato]

Either you haven't heard the album or there's something wrong with the way you perceive music....forgive me for asking the obvious, pointless question......but HOW IN THE HELL DOES THE NEW CRADLE OF FILTH IN ANY WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM REMIND YOU OF ANYTHING SYSTEM OF A DOWN HAS EVER DONE?!!? It just doesn't make any sense!

And yes, I realize that I tend to obsess when it comes to trivial bullshit like this, but how can somebody have such a half-assed opinion!?

 

[LuminousAether]

Yeah, really. The newest CoF sounds exactly like Midian, not SoaD.
