Opeth and Dimmu Borgir?

[MoonlightOrchid]

Hi to all, just wondering if any Opeth fans also enjoy listening to Dimmu Borgir.
I got this weird comment from somebody, that supposedly it doesn't "match" an Opeth-fan to also like Dimmu Borgir, so I thought of asking all of you,


anyone in here like Dimmu Borgir apart from me?

Thanks in advance!

Me. I have no idea why you couldn't like both Opeth and Dimmu.
Perhaps it's because there's a lot of negativity towards Dimmu Borgir, because they make too much money. Which is of course prohibited for a metal band.

I like playing Dimmu on Keyboard. Its good musik but its get boring after a time so I dont listen frequently to them But from time to time...

i disagree why would money decide if i like a band or not that's stupid

Awsome band. I don't understand why if you like Opeth you couldn't listen something else. Right now I have 393 bands on my pc and they have different genres of metal. Metal don't have prohibition. Be free with your spirit of metal! \m/

i only have opeth on my computer and some other obscure stuff like ludwig beethoven, pink floid and others but im basically accounting for every genre of music with those!

 

[isolation_years]

kind of, i like a few songs but definatly not enough to buy an album

 

[Prophet178]

I don't understand why people would limit themselves to one genre of music and completely write off every other kind of music out there. I don't particularly love Dimmu Borgir, but they have some good stuff.

no, there's a lot of negativity towards dimmu because they're a horrid band and they've been a horrid band since what, stormblast? not even hellhammer and vortex can save this band - especially with the terrible melodies vortex gets

I'm a big fan of Dimmu, and I'm not entirely sure why anyone would say it's weird to listen to both Opeth and Dimmu, unless it's because of the aforementioned money-making bit. And in that case, their opinion isn't very credible if a band's success can determine whether said band is good or not.

problem with dimmu is that they have only two good songs

you are insane for putting so much time into this weird trolling thing

 

[grey knight]

Usually I think it's because some of Opeth listeners are so "developed" listeners that they've got sick of DB, I myself am atm getting tired of the band, not meaning though that I wouldn't enjoy the music anyway.

 

[Lateralus14]

I'd like to hear a good Dimmu album but yea the ones I've heard are pretty boring.

Not trolling. Seriously. If I was I wouldn't post on this section of UM. I just wanna hear oppinions.

And I agree on the part that none should limit their hearings to a specific genre of music. Its just that some abcent minded people, find it difficult to comprehend that.

 

[lammoth]

Dimmu's decent, gets majorly boring, i dislike Shagrath though, nice keys and strings

This might be the Worst thread I've ever seen on the Opeth forum.

Nah, Borgir is obviously inferior to Emperor and way of out comparison with Opeth.

hmm, right.

Haven't listened to too much Dimmu, but I enjoy watching Mourning Palace from Ozzfest from time to time.
