Whenever I see someone saying they don't like a band, I try to see why they would think so, but honestly, I see no fault in Dimmu. Sure, they may not have that old "Tr00" black metal sound, but they don't play absolute ****, not like Cradle (horrible). Their also the perfect gateway band for people to get into black metal. Dimmu lead me to Old man's Child, lead me to Satyricon, to Emperor, to Immortal, and so on. They don't slack off either. I mean, Cradle, I think, had some more interesting stuff back then (Cruelty and the Beast was alright), but now it just sounds like half-ass goth-core.
I'm not gonna say that everyone's wrong for hating dimmu (if you do hate them, of course).
