There's nothing grim about Dimmu Borgir, they're like linkin park with black metal vox.

I don't recall saying I dislike them because they are popular. I do recall saying they are tepid pop, though, so maybe it would have been a safer bet to assume that's why I don't like them. Really they aren't even a band I think about that much, they aren't the worst, their are worse examples of bands trying to milk the underground, Nokturnal Mortum comes to mind.

That's a pretty lousy argument anyway. I like plenty of very popular bands.

Not much to say about the music but they are absolutely rediculous live. I am excited to see them when they play near me this fall. Its like watching a train wreck. Its so horrible but you just GOTTA watch!

lol

edit: o nvm beat to it

DIIIIIIIIIMMU! Hell yeah I'm getting it. I'm kinda concerned about the band without Vortex, but I think the album will be great.

demon burger:beer: love that $hit

Demon burger? No, death burger...

They're Psychostick tracks, in case anyone was wondering.

I'm giving Enthrone Darkness Triumphant a listen at the moment. The first track is a strong opening for a great album. I don't want to say it's flawless, because all albums have some flaws, but this album is very strong in a lot of ways.

It's been a long time since i've listened to Dimmu Borgir, so it's sounding more incredible to me since I don't listen to them all that often. I should change that though, I forgot how much I like them.

I think it is incredible that they have a full orchestra and choir in their live shows. Their new stuff might offend some trve kvlt heads but they sure do put on a kickass show

I agree, its pretty strong album as far as Black Metal goes, particularly Mourning Palace. Its been a while since I've given it a spin, but I remember it being quite good.
