Vocal Coach Reacts! Dimmu Borgir! Gateways! Live!
Yes were are here already, DB fans representing. 🤟
Big fan here. Saw them Oct 2018 in Sydney . Small venue and they nailed it.🇭🇲
I never saw them live I have a problem with big places but I have there all cd's
Fan from Brazil. Saw them live in 2004
🤘🤘
For mine Shagrath is the perfect example of not needing to blow a gasket to produce harsh vocals. Guy looks like he’s having a casual conversation whilst he’s sounding like Palpatine from Star Wars.
funny thing about this show is that it was broadcasted on national television :)
As it should 😊
metal in norway is national anthem dude.. lmao
Really?
i was also in co-op with the national orkestra and the national choir of norway
The full video is on YT too :)
And several other full concert ones.Think even the Wacken one where they were also Orchestra backed is floating around.
I've worked backstage at over a dozen orchestra backed metal concerts so far.
I can confirm that from talking to the orchestra members are almost universally having a hell of a time doing these kinds of concerts.
For some because they get to play in front of gigantic crowds, for others because Metal is probably THE music genre that lends itself to being orchestrated best.
Yassss that makes me very happy to hear!
Shagrath is one of the original growlers. Love his growling style so much! It's quite clear and you can easily hear the lyrics, but there's still something very primal about it. Been a fan for decades, but it's always fun to see how other people react to Dimmu Borgir.
Same over here the growl being understable makes it so much better.
he really does have the growl down, epic metal voice
While I also have always loved his voice, he really does sound a bit like Popeye from those classic cartoons :D
Shagrath is obviously great but they are not the same without Legendary ICS Vortex and Genius Mustis. Gateways is great tho.
My dad is a huge fan of this band, I remember being like 6 years old and being a little scared of that type of voice, eventually i got used to it😂 it was totally interesting to see the reaction and of course the live, it was like a first reaction to me too
I also scared my daughter when she was little with Dimmu Borgir and Cradle of filth, she was terrified, now she's almost 15 and loves these bands.
@@diocollins2379 yes! thats one of the other bands that i hear my dad talk about a lot. I think eventually for me was like an acquired
taste and when i hear it, it brings me back to childhoold and also, is so nice that she likes the same bands! ❤
@@Kiki-dz2zr I promise I didn't want her to like my music but I exposed her to it since she was in her mom's womb and now she's a little metalhead, the only difference it's that she's also a musician, plays 3 instruments. I'm sure you have a nice bond with your dad due to this music.
i feel really old now....
I´m a huge fan for like 20 years... and also is my 19 year son, for at least 5 years now.
That third harmony/effect he was speaking of is Agnete singing OVER the choir as well as what sounds like a slight chorus and reverb effect on her mic.
Norwegian music at it's finest :)
I feel like most people can't handle music with this kind of intensity. I love it. I love how heavy and dramatic it is. It sounds like they mean business, and that it's heavy and aggressive but not "sad" sounding. This song has a triumphant kind of vibe. Love it.
Yasssss! You're slowly turning into a metalhead hahaha I love how open minded you are when it comes to music. 😊
(Waiting for my requests!! :D)
The "banshee" is Agnete Kjølsrud from Djerv.🤘🤘
I can't believe nobody has reacted to Jorn Lande yet, crazy good for decades now.
Dimmu Borgir used to be one of my fave bands way back in the day, cool to see your reaction to them.
Would deffo recommend you to check out Progenies of the Great Apocalypse.
Nathan Hobson this. Absolutely this. 🖤 🤘
I back this as well
Vortex vocals 🤘😍
yes please!
FinGamer678 NFTB Yes! I want to see a reaction to Vortex!
This brings me back! I was at that concert. Amazing show!
Black metal is quite theatrical. Great medium for telling dark and supernatural stories.
Carach Angren 😉
I feel like having a recording that's not done on a 90s video cassette recorder is not black metal though
Agenta in the end haunts me in my minds..this track is so much better live than the actual track bcoz of the orchestra and Agneta's live performances!
U know Nightwish (symphonic metal) , this is symphonic black metal, same like Nightwish... But DARKER :)
Check their official videos... Especially from last album... Beautiful
Her voice just have reverb.. like every singer uses....The distortion is natural.. i can tell.. been listening these voices for 30 years.....
you had to have chills at some point mate) thanks for the look) hails from Denmark
Dimmu is in my top 3 all time fav bands.love them! Lol, was cool to see your reactions. 😄
I love Dimmu Borgir, Animal Alpha is the first band of Agnete....
Saludos from México
Finally someone realized the drummer! :)
I love your reaction videos on stuff like this. Also appreciate the way you acknowledge the bands hard work and efforts etc. You Da Man! A++++ I'm subbed after this video! : )
3rd harmony? The profesionals call it "Histeric Witch Scream" 👨🏼⚖️
Hahaahahah nice
I'm unfortunately not a Patreon but it would be amazing to see you react to Cradle of Filth. Dani has some interesting vocals!
Sabina K. Just from the earlier days please, when he still could shriek and didn’t look like Baron Harkonnen haha
@@MrDrus maybe react to the living with the enemy. that was hillarious.
tam hewitt-baker deer lord, I’m still trying to forget it haha
@@MrDrus Haha, haven't listened to them since Midian. I had no idea so much had changed.
Sabina K. th-cam.com/video/YxOHsrGICJo/w-d-xo.html Wait for the chorus. You’re welcome haha
I love DB. Sorry, not sorry someone did this to you Sam 😂
simply best live performance from the best band there is. can't go wrong
Awesome video!!! I recently found your channel, and I love your take on all these songs (and also your amazing mug!)!!! Please, please, please do Heilung In Maidjan LIFA live show reaction! I would love your take on their more tribal music, and some of the crazy sounds that the female vocalist is able to accomplish. It's just like metal...but without the guitars and reaches more towards the roots of humanity. It's a really cool experience, and I would love a take on how the vocals are accomplished!
shee won an award for that, and this was live!
Ahh, I remember that concert :-)
Dimmu Borgir & The Norwegian Radio Orchestra
, Forces Of The Northern Night.
May 28. 2011 in Oslo Spectrum, great show. Had seats almost dead center of the stage.
The woman is Agnete from the band Djerv, she's pretty well known by League of Legends players as she sang the theme song "Get Jinxed" for them.
You should check out some of her music too, she's pretty varied.
He has total control of his voice and you can tell it never sounds strained or pushed and that’s exactly why he sounds the same after almost 30 years of the bands existence
It feels like the heavy version of "Haggard - Awaking the Centuries"
Maybe i'm just sad that Haggard has been inactive for years...
Afaik Haggard have been touring but certainly a shame they haven't released anything new in years
I love Dimmu Borgir so much oh my god. Had the privilege to see them live one time, on front row too and I wish I will get that privilege again. I love them 🖤
Seen them twice now. First time at Dynamo Open Air 1998, (it made me a metal fan) and later as a suprise (and goddamn i missed the meet and greet) at Waldrock. Damn they are so awesome live!
@@themplar aaaah good old Waldrock 🤘 my parents used to go to Waldrock on their bicycles because it was very close to our town. If only I were a few years older, then I would have experienced that too
Too bad you missed the meet and greet ☹ that sucks
Love your little uncomfortable laughs XD Dimmu is so good and I wish I could have been at this show with the orchestra and choir. And yes Agnete is pretty much a banshee
Well, Dimmu Borgir were my gateway to metal music, so they’ll be forever in my heart. Anyway, never thought you’d react to them at all lol So, thank you!
I get mildly annoyed when people request extreme metal bands for vocal coach reactions, because unless they're Melissa Cross, they mostly don't understand the mechanisms/complexities for the different harsh vocal styles so can't really give a critique/breakdown of what's going on vocally, good or bad...which is the whole point of the vocal coach reaction series
Luckily this had a mix of DB's usual harsh vocals and a guest's amazing vocals so there was something for you to comment on at least
As a metalhead, there's plenty of metal bands I'd love to suggest for you to hear just because I want to spread the metal love, but not necessarily ones I want a reaction/breakdown from a vocal coach for
I totally get where you're coming from, but from my viewpoint, i'm LOVING getting these suggestions. It's literally forced me to widen my horizons, and take a deeper look at vocal styles I wouldn't usually come into contact with. It's been a steep learning curve, but very worth it.
Love Melissa Cross too, she was much the same, brought in on a recording session, and made it her new focus. A wonder Woman!
Dimmu Borgir... Extreme metal... 🤔 Nah I get what you mean. But Dimmu is pretty much pop black metal 😂 It's pretty disco at times even XD
@@SyntheticFuture Eonean is a bit like Jazz to me. Seems like they are whimping out. I am just waiting for a Justin Bieber feature.
@@valentinkeitz6222 I don't personally mind it because I don't really enjoy the trve cvlt black. I find this quite entertaining :) But I can see how for people more into this genre this is pretty cringy.
Maybe if your Norwegian 😀, but it’s pretty extreme for an American girl from the Bible Belt.
I’m not really cool with burning churches or sacrificing babies, but I love some Dimmu & some Vortex 😍
One of their best songs, acutally much much older they performed on this tour as well. The Mourning Palace. Musically its so good, and it works perfect with the choir and orchestra.
How about "Heilung - Krigsgaldr live"?
I saw them live last year and it was THE SHIT.
your accent and your giggle make me smile so much lol
You should do Wintersun, the singer has an impressive voice and also he's a talented guitar player.
i love yore reaction to them for watching them for the first time ! i am a fan of theirs and this song was the perfect song for you to hear
You should react to "Satyricon mother north live at the opera". One of the best live performances in my opinion.
Great seeing people listen to metal with an open mind... Most people say it's just noise!
Thanks for the disclaimer at the beginning... although something tells me if any DB fan arrived here, you’ll get immediately recommended something from Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia and I’ll get punched for a single from less glorious days.
Also, the change of your face expression was priceless 😂
Now, on to the details, Captain Sam :P
Growl is one thing. Another thing is Agnete Kjølsrud (the guest lady) who is actually an alt-/punk rock singer and she was utilised in lots of different stuff (compare Get Jinxed for instance or her material from Djerv).
One last thing - I can GUARANTEE you that not all of the choir singers/musicians were thrilled. At least that’s my impression. Back in the days, when such marriage (metal + orchestra) wasn’t that popular, Therion decided to record Vovin without showing the session musicians what they contributed towards. Apparently the reactions - once they listened to everything - were, delicately saying, mixed haha
Anyway, thanks! Getting a message saying you decided to record an impression was a nice birthday gift ;) And glad you enjoyed it!
Agnete has one of the coolest, most distinctive voices in all of rock and metal. I absolutely love her singing!
Nah, not puritanical euphoric misanthropia, enthroned darkness triumphant is their best work.
@@psychoaiko666 for all tid & stormblast
@@Iseghaal I definitely prefer the old stuff over the new, but I don't speak "singing Swedish" ... or "drunk Norwegian"
My native language is throatcancer😝
Puritanical and Enthrone are my favourites, followed by Death Cult and Spiritual.
first rime here and its amazing see how you just appreciate music. beside any genre. thank you sir :)
He combines it with that throat singing.
Really nice, but you should have picked 'Mourning Palace"........
True
That’s very old school Dimmu Borgir before they really got symphonic. Gateways is much more representative of where the band is creatively these days.
@@Icipher353 Totally true, but you can't deny that Mourning Palace is a masterpiece and belongs to the history of Symphonic Death/Black Metal. To understand the current status/sound of a band I really love to know the history and journey they had forming new a sound.
Loved your reaction to this! I would definitely recommend Mourning Palace by the same band, it’s definitely way more up there with some seriously cool orchestral elements and Shagrath projects his voice much more
Really cool to see a reaction video where the audio is on point
You should check out Cellar Darling. They have some live videos recorded at TH-cam Space London. "Insomnia" and "Death" are two songs in particular.
Yes! This!
Sam you really,I mean REALLY need to react to Floor Jansen Beste Zangers you will be FLOORED ! ha, also Nightwish :The Poet and The Pendulum
You do know when he spoke before song started that isnt his normal speaking voice?
Wouldn’t it be funny if he went around speaking like that all the time
You're right - the first part of vocals for the woman have some banshee effect on it. It's cleaner at the end for her 2nd portion.
I love this reaction
If you like that one you should try mourning palace from forces of the northern light at the opposite of gateways it was not originaly recorded with a choir and an orchestra
Hi Sam! New subscriber here, I took a brief look to your videos and, as long you liked Dimmu's drummer performance, I think you'd like to listen to some Gojira; the singer have an interesting use of his voice too (and they're French, like me, and I'm really proud of them 'cause they're proper fire IMO ^_^ ). Thanks for this video ;)
I've been enjoying your reactions and analysis. I have to recommend another one of the absolute monster leads in the metal industry Sam Carter. I recently saw a live performance that was impressive to say the least, Architects // Hereafter (Live ARTE Concert Hellfest). Keep up the vids sir!
No effect on her voice. She's just that good. Obvious if you listen close.
Could you please react to cradle of filth? Dani Filth has a five octave range
Shagrath is my harsh vocal idol… he is at complete ease doing what he does, and I don’t understand it or know how to replicate it myself yet…. but I’m trying to learn
I like this guy, i will subscribe!
The better example of the same energy would be Satyricon - Phoenix, to my estimate.
Trust me, a lot of the orchestra are HUGE fans of the band
The end of that song is sooooo damn epic
I was there! Won a ticket and their album. It was a cool concert!
Btw, the woman is Agnethe, from the bands Djerv and Animal Alpha.
never seen a smokeless bong before
if you havent heard their stuff before you should listen to their earlier stuff when they had a male operatic vocalist. his voice is amazing too. the serpentine offering and the sacrilegious scorn are two where he sings a bit.
No effect on her voice, it's called having a full-blown choir singing behind her.
@xjoshxbox I meant that there wasn't any effect that was altering her voice to a great degree. Delay and reverb are typically the more subtle effects used on vocalists. What I felt the reactor was referring to was the added effect of having her singing with a large choir behind her.
@xjoshxbox You're not wrong about that.
Awesome!!! Dimmu Borgir is the Death Metal equivalent of Nightwish, tons of theatrical elements and orchestral elements.
Symphonic Black Metal*
Reactors really need to do themselves a favor and watch this and the official video. Even if it's off cam
Too bad ICS Vortex is gone. Feel like this guy would like him.
Cool to see someone who has no idea what to expect analyze this properly :)
10:00 Epic !Great video , new sub! Cheers from Argentina
Agnete from Djerv also sings the Jinx theme from League of Legends 🤘
Loved this reaction Sam, the pure joy was written all over your face :P And i dont know if you already reacted to this band but if not you should definatly try them out: Blind Guardian The Bard's Song & Valhalla Live at Wacken Open Air 2016 . I think you will really enjoy watching andreacting to this one :)
you should try Septicflesh - Portrait of a headless man, and Godflesh - Apocalypse , another level of epicness!!
It's been a while since I listened to Dimmu Borgir.
I'd love to see a reaction to the band Batushka, I'd recommend the likes of Yekteniya 1 or 3 to react to
React to Infant Annihilator, Blasphemian.
If you want a good one to react to, I'd recommend Heilung "In Maidjan."
The most epic music gets !!
WACKEN 2012. Watch the whole show. It's phenomenal.
I was there that night in oslo, very awesome \m/
watch the live wacken concert and its a better audio version.
Muted the smaller theatrical vaporising and listened to the actual theatre of Dimmu performance.
This drummer is incredible? He's good, but they've had godlike drummers prior to him. Their 2001 album with Nick Barker has the most complex and lightning fast drums of their entire discography. Not many drummers can correctly play their song "Indoctrination" for example (not even the drummer from this video, because I saw him attempt it with my own eyes in Toronto (Canada) and he played it differently). There's so much cymbal work and lots of crazy fills. People have described his drumming as "surgical" due to the precision.
good review but get decent headset to get full experience of music instead of using those button things i have spoken thank you
Tbh mate, you havent heard screams and singing paired until you've listened to Anaal Nathrakh. Forging towards the Sunset, Reek of Fear and Extravaganza are good starting points. Cheers!
Human Detox dont do that to him lol
I love dimmu borgir :)
Love this band! Best!!!!!!
Im a big dimmu borgir fan
The guitarist is Glader he is also the singer of Old Man's Child
I'm sorry, don't take this as an insult, but... Reading this comment as a Swede made me laugh out loud! Glader is our translation of Happy the dwarf from Snow White, while Galder means Wizard or Spell in ancient nordic. The evil black metal stage name is obviously Galder, not Glader.
Dimmu !!
Borgir!!
Sorry, can't help but here the choir in the self tittled song...
Dimmu are a beautiful band ♥
You are correct. This was a sermon of a true Adept.
Might I suggest you check out Progenies of the Great Apocalypse at some point in the near future?
Her voice effect was the her studio version voicing over the speakers.
Please do more reactions to Dimmu Borgir! Or Sabaton, or Powerwolf.
Dimmu Borgir is my favorite band, and "Gateways" was my favorite song until I heard "Archaic Correspondence".
Wow, haven't heard Dimmu since 2010. Kinda lost respect for the founding members since the drama of Mustis and Vortex leaving.
