I can't believe that there is not an official thread about Dimmu Borgir. I just recently started listening to this wonderful band. Their first album "For all tid" is perfect and extremely beautiful.

So post your opinions and stuff that has anything to do with this band!

Keyboards and the voice of Vortex make the songs different from other black bands. thats why they are my favourite band.


then how many BM bands you have hear who use keybords?
I think you never hear about Old Kovenant or Titan Mountain or Odium probobly never and other good keyboard based BM bands


Yes, but are they good as Dimmu Borgir?

where it says this:

"1994-2000 Black metal
2001- Symphonic Black metal"

Anyway. I agree, Vortex vocals are what makes Dimmu different from other bands. Also, listening to their latest albums, they've become kinda epic, IMO.

You can't make such comparison. Theh production between both bads is completely different.

Even if the comparison is not the best... K7 is right. They were symphonic from the very beggining. You just can't say that For All Tid and Stormblåst are not symphonic.

Not one of my favorite groups, but Vortex is pure awesome-ness. I do like their music, just not as much as some of the other BM bands.

EDT is the best one among the albums of DM that were more modern.

I recommend you the first two ones... "For All Tid" and "Stormblåst" they are a bit raw if you compare them to the new cds but they are indeed way more atmospheric and epic.

And if you don't like them... try SBD and PEM that are more easy to listen.

well metalstorm has to categorize bands because so it is easy for people to find what they would like to listen. but man first of all some times mistakes happen and seconldy when for example DB on early years had some symphonic elements it cant be always written. So they should write: 1994-1996: black metal, 1997-1998: black metal with a few syphonic elements and 1999-2000:black metal with some more syphonic elements. are you joking me? listen to the albums and make your own opinion. don't use metalstorm or other sites to categorize music. some times they are wrong.

Yeah, I agree with you Mr. Doctor, For All Tid and Stormblåst are way more atmospheric than there newer Lps, but are harder to get into because of being a bit rawer.

I just saw these guys on Halloween open up for Danzig. They were pretty good! Because it was Halloween, they didn't wear corpsepaint, which I thought was funny.
