I feel your pain.

Except I only listened to it once and have no intention to do it again.

Both of you already beat me. It was so awful I gave up in the middle of the song. I could not stand this bullshit any longer.

They say we'll be your friends we'll stick with you till the end
But everybody's only looking out for themselves
And you say who can you trust I'll tell you nobody

Yeah same here, tho I waited for a decent sound quality to make an opinion... There are so many wrong things about this song : it lacks power, darkness and brutality, the female voice is so irritating and the whole song is just... plain boring.... I'll wait and listen to the other tracks but I have no illusion anymore...

I don't remember Dimmu Borgir ever having brutality, just (to some degree) darkness, and yes, power.

Ya know what 5 fingers said to Gateways? SLAP!

You think darkness is your ally? You merely adopted the dark. I was born in it. Molded by it. I didn't see the light until I was a man. But it was nothing to me but blinding.

Not a bad one, the first time I hear the crazy insane witch's voice, this is a creative point, atmosphere like hell's breath. Down point is not much of harsh guitar and extreme touch... I will get the 2010 upcomping but it could be less good as their previous stuff.

I still don't understand why everyone is bashing this song ... it is NOT the worst song ever to be written (and not the best obviously) but really what is everyone expecting this is actually a good song after the departure of the two main creative powers in the band

They were able to get the worse part of Cradle of Filth and create this song. The girl screaming looks like my neighbour's cat during the night.
I *REALLY* hope this is the down part of the full length.

When i first heard this song i hated it, it was awful. but i have listened to it a few more times and i like it a little more everytime... its something different from what they usually do. i would say my favorite part is the orchestrations.

It is totally different from their past. Now the vocallist also does keyboard. Musically, it is less tough, but not really a downfall to me. Im waiting for the album.

Strange song to say the least. Apparently they abandoned their style and adopted the style of Cradle of Filth.
Let's just hope this a single that is, quite often, the worst song on any album.

This is definitely an interesting direction for them. Though I feel like the female vocals are to fill the void for a part when Vortex was with the band, we must remember that his time with Dimmu is in the past. I can say that I acutally look forward to the rest of the album.

This is certainly a fine example of pretension, ridiculousness, and stupidity!
Pretentious costumes, pretentious orchestra, pretentious female vocals, pretentious video (reminds me of From the Cradle of Enslave), pretentious performance, crap!
Cradle of Filth and Dimmu Burger [sic] are converging towards each other, or more accurately Dimmu Burger is just imitating CoF. I see in my crystal ball a time when you can't tell Dimmu Buger from CoF.
They used to be my fav. black metal bands but now I gotta remove them from my list. I gave them 10-year chance to improve but they just got worse!

This better be an edited version. The real version better change that damned fem vocalist to Vortex now!!!

I actually like the song a bit better since hearing it a few more times. Not at all wild about Agnete's vocals, but it's not as bad as I originally thought. The song would definitely be better with Vortex, needless to say.
