In the common mindset, when a fire burns something to ashes, said thing is completely destroyed, never to return. And yet, in European mythology, we are told that the mythological phoenix, upon nearing old age, bursts into flames... only to be reborn from its ashes, to begin life anew with a fresh energy and spiritual vitality. From the creative ashes of Romanian black metal legends Negură Bunget, rose the phoenix of Dordeduh, the new project of former members Sol Faur and Huppogramus; it both pays tribute to the band of their origin and yet also transcends it. Dordeduh are by no means whatsoever easy to digest, and nor is their debut album. And yet, as was the case with Negură Bunget, this sense of mystery is part of what adds to the band's overall formula of fantastic music. For Dar De Duh is quite simply the type of album that's like an elaborately-crafted painting. You have to look it over several times to fully absorb its entire beauty, but once you take it in for all it's worth, you'll be absolutely amazed.

First full length from the former primary creative influences of Negura Bunget. I had high hopes and Sol Faur and Hupogrammos don't disappoint. If you enjoyed the cosmically wonderful "OM", odds are you'll find this nearly as entrancing.

Of course this is from the person that once said:

Quote:

If you are really into black metal you'd find out that Virstele Pamantului is a comercial album; it sounds too melodic and it's easy to understand it ( 7.9 says it all ) ... real black metal is Moonsorrow, Angantyr, Manegarm and other good bands...btw all the albums from negura are masterpieces, less the last one due to the things happened in the band in 2009 and especially the split of the main song writers (hupogrammus & sol faur ) that made themselves a new band... called Dordeduh
So anibx, if you rated this album a 9 or 10, excuse me then : you don't know what black metal quality is. (period)


So quite clearly your ability to analyse is shot to shit

my dear jooe...at first time i have rated dar de duh 10 because i was amazed but than i have realized that this album does not deserve a 10 neither a 9...this album values 8.1 8.2...the ratings will prove that in the future...so...my darling dear...even with that face of a clown i am more into black metal than you...i am not gonna kiss you because you are ugly too...so please let me play some starcraft 2...

To be fair, I've seen what you look like from your Irinel account; that is a rather butchered version of Nightcrawler from the X-Men films, so like your crumpled taste in music, I don't think you should be dishing out judgments on appearances (and not to be a big-headed arsehole, but I'm rather good looking if societal feedback is anything to go by). It says a lot about you though that you constantly fall back on attacks of physical appearances to justify your existence on this website. You clearly aren't a particularly deep or interesting individual

Ultimately you're a naive and misguided wanderer that's no threat to anyone's train of though. Sorry dude.

I've been listening to this a lot in the past couple of days and I think it might be a tad better than Enslaved making it my favorite BM album this year.

why do people keep on calling this black metal? This is mostly folk metal with just a little black metal thrown in.

There's more than just "little Black Metal" in the music, BM structures in most of the songs, tremelo picking riffs alternating with folky passages ... while this album is basically Folk it's still essntailly black metal.

One more time Manegarm is NOT black metal just like Moonsorrow isn't and current Enslaved also actually isn't that much black metal any more.

I swear, every time an album gets rated highly by somebody on MS, there has to be a huge argument about either "open minded/close mindedness" or "subjective vs objective opinions". Cut it out yall, I can't think of a more silly thing to get angry about than peoples ratings of metal albums on the internet.

So I listened to a bit of this album and really don't get all the praise towards it. The style is fairly unique, but pretty uninteresting. And it ain't got shit on RIITIIR.

Actually reminds me a bit of Drudkh, who I hate. Way better than Drudkh of course, but still pretty meh. Of course, the only atmospheric black metal I like is Hvis and Filosofem, so yeah.

Except those topics were never. The discussion was about whether or not this record was better or worse than Om.

7.7 a disappointment? 7.7 means it is between good and very good, actually closer to very good than good.

Great release, merging so many different influences into a fresh whole. Somehow I enjoy it even more than the brilliant "OM". But it could only mean that I need to get back to "OM"

Highly enjoyable and top quality Folk/Black Metal.

I didn't know that it was the new project from the better side of Negura Bunget until the staff pick popped up, and I thought it was WAY to similar to OM at first but with that it made much more sense. The drum work is a lot better on this one me thinks. OMs drums were a bit flat and I had a problem wit that sometimes. Dor De Duh is a tad more grim in areas but the two are very relative to each other. I like this one more for the time being because it's new. I keep comparing the two so I'm just going to stop now....

I am 100% sure they won't be nominated in the same category. MOst likely to happen is Dordeduh in folk (since it's more folk than black) and Enslaved ion prog (it's more prog than black)

That definitely makes sense, but what albums will be nominated in the black metal category if not these two then?
