@@LicensedGuitarist2000 : Its inclusion in Brutal Legend did not go unnoticed... though they made the mistake of setting it as the music for the FIRST HALF of the final battle, rather than the true end.
Why do black metal fans give DB so much grief? Is it solely because they use an orchestra and their production doesn't sound like complete and utter dogshit?
Funny,the keyboardist always seems kinda out of place to me.The video to this song is the only time I've seen him look intense,and even that is generous.
One of the most seriously unique songs I've heard in a lifetime, and still after 4+ years of listening to it, I find myself enthralled by it's composure and power.
I know I heard it at least fifteen years ago myself, and it's still a tune I could listen to a few times a day everyday without getting bored of it. Though I love Dimmu this song in particular really hits a few things that i think make great music what it is; like the storytelling, vocals and the balance of clean vs growls, it's orchestral and black metal, and it all tells this story that has an almost cinematic feel to it.
My gf has just skydived and said it's something one has to do in life... well I'd rather spend 5 minutes being blasted in the face and consumed by this live. It must have been amazing.
This is my favorite song of the past 15 years. Let me explain why. A favorite song has two main variables: how frequently you listen to it within a given time frame and how much you like it within that time frame. I've listened to it well over 1000 times since I was like 14 (I'm 29 now), and it never gets old. Never. It's always epic as fuck.
Kevin Kostyk I've been a metalhead since I was 14, and I'm 24. Dimmu Borgir was one of the first Metal bands I found. So glad I found them. 🤘and your right with everything you have said.
Kings o carnival creation got me into d.b. the incorporation of orchestral n metal.. something id never heard before or thought was possible at the time.. awsome
This song is the soundtrack to the devastation that will befall the earth in the near future! It's not the anti christ that comes, it's the punishing abyss!! There is no saviour!!
The purring of a cat helps you to heal. I dont have a cat..... I think metal is a kind of extreme purring. I guess I start to like this Band.... Need to listen more! My conclusions today...cringy? weird? meow? . forgive me I have a flu but feel much better now! Thank you for uploading!
Good evening GeminoSmothers! Cats, Dogs, Birds, Reptiles, Insects, Arachnids (from far, faaaaar away), Centipedes, Marsupials.... I guess I like my animals like my metal: versatile, open minded and different.... \m/^_^\m/
Just a quick update: I adopted a lil stray cat!!! OMG too cute watching him do some funny stuff! He is playing with snowflakes and he is waking me up every morning by jumping on me or biting my toes! AWWW! I am fangirling right now! And regret nothing! MEOW >^.^
Amazing kick ass song ! ALL riffs are great, the Chorus changing the Key is incredible and the orquestration its Just fenomenal! This composition is eternal.
Im a christian my whole life and I like this music and others like it. This is no different that watching movies or TV with violence, sex and whatever. my belief and faith in GOD is without question.
Yo great work heartfelt lyrics thank you so mutch for all of your hard work the sacrifices you made and the hardships you endured along the way. I have seen people wearing your shirts from time to time so there is a lot of love out there for you. I am doing what I can to get by trying to get on my feet the townspeople have helped me some my neighbor moved out and left me some furniture and I inherited their cat. Anubis had a cat too so it's all good every good witch has a cat anyhow. Thank you again bless you all. Satan.
I just listened to this after about ten years. I started it and it about blew my speakers out. I then thought man this is much heavier than I remember it being, then it hit that mid section and reminded me why this shit is sick as fuck.
This is THE Final Battle music.
No matter what the context, there is no more appropriate soundtrack to the ultimate fight to end all things than this.
Brutal legend?

Truth 🍻
Fattest cap in the world

Keybordist Mustis composed the whole entire song , it's an original classic piano part you can find it on youtube it's amazing
What terms should I look up in order to find the original piece?
Look up mustis dimmu borgir
Funny,the keyboardist always seems kinda out of place to me.The video to this song is the only time I've seen him look intense,and even that is generous.
@@tgcid2018 well I guess that shows what YOU know.. idk what else to tell you.
Challenge accepted. 🤘🎹
I believe this to be dimmu’s best song. It has everything
Yes, next to Vredesbyrd.. which was composed by the same composer
Puritania
closer to Mourning Palace
One of the most seriously unique songs I've heard in a lifetime, and still after 4+ years of listening to it, I find myself enthralled by it's composure and power.
Dude it's been 15+ years for me and I feel the same way.

I just listened to this song like 20 times in the last few hours. It kept my ass moving at work
Literally I feel the same. It makes me wanna get in touch with my “darker” side which is really just goth stuff and the paranormal
This reminds me of Star Wars. I can see Palpatine rocking out to this.
Or Batman Theme
@@garincha3959 No... It's from Hellraiser actually. Look for Hellraiser 2 Hellbound. It's the same musical pattern with small differences.
This album opened up the gates of hell never to return. I traveled to Norway just for the full orchestra concert! #Hails #Legions
My gf has just skydived and said it's something one has to do in life... well I'd rather spend 5 minutes being blasted in the face and consumed by this live. It must have been amazing.
BRÜTAL LEGEND, FTW!!
DROWNING DOOM, I love this faction !!
@@Jds_7 its my main
I may not care for this band but goddamn, hearing this one during the battle at The Sea Of Black Tears really set the tone.
@@JurassicKM *YES, IT DOES!*
favourite line in this song zero tolerance must be issued forth

@@thelastdaybreathinginetern1385 holy shit we same age
Same here
The chill that goes through me when I hear this.
This is why I called this shite the most beautiful Black Metal song I've ever listened!! \m/
2:16-2:48 epic majesty
oh mein gott, ja
fuck yeah dude
I love any part of their songs that has ICX Vortex in it
i'm feeling fckin unleashed man! fck! ~ Invocation in the name of Our Flame \m/
|m|
the orchestra of this song is everything!
not really...
@@Sephez_ is always one of those guys out there
Literally
Not everything :d without rest it would be just orchestra xd
Kings o carnival creation got me into d.b. the incorporation of orchestral n metal.. something id never heard before or thought was possible at the time.. awsome
THAT INTRO IS SO MUCH FUCKING BATMAN!
Oi spiderman 2 for ps2, greatest thing paired with this..
batman isn't as cool
Taurus Guy haha reminds me of hellraiser
I tasted this song long time ago and never spoiled.
Ikr
I remember this song from brutal legend omg I miss that game
Just replayed through it again thanks to Game Pass. Great times. Breaks my heart we never got a sequel.
After years of listening to this, I still got goosebumps!!!
One of the greatest compositions ever written.
“Fueled by the hatred of man”
fuckin aye
*fueled by the venom of hatred for man
@@joshuacromley7439 that as well
Not a big fan of pure black metal, but love the symphonic brand.
Best Symphonic Rock Ever
Brutal Legend is why I even know about this one
This song is the soundtrack to the devastation that will befall the earth in the near future! It's not the anti christ that comes, it's the punishing abyss!!
There is no saviour!!
Brutal legend got me into this song!
SAMEEE
If Mozart and Black metal and Star Wars had a baby that would be this. IT'S FUCKING AWESOME! \m/
This sounds like BATMAN (Tim Burton's)... So dark and cool.
Right now, in June 2020, this song is most relevant.
Goooood..... gooooooooood
love this band to death
Na minha opinião essa é a melhor música que eles já fizeram
The purring of a cat helps you to heal. I dont have a cat..... I think metal is a kind of extreme purring. I guess I start to like this Band.... Need to listen more! My conclusions today...cringy? weird? meow? . forgive me I have a flu but feel much better now! Thank you for uploading!
Well that explains why metalheads love cats.

@@cloudymoon2494 are you an anime character?
@@jasonkingsmithking5774 Haha ^_^ I am Cloud Strife's sister. XD
Chorus still gives me chills
If anyone interested, the sort of voice in the operetta is called counter-tenor. Very accurate for church late medieval and renacentisa music.

2:16 to 2:50 sounds like a "How to" for starting your own Santanic church... LoL!
Flocks are for sheep to be led to slaughter or harvested for their wool *spits*
Anyone loving this song needs to look up the live version,Vortex fucking kills it
It kind of sounds like something that would be in a Batman movie... Awesome!
They do get a little Danny Elfman sometimes,but their early stuff is more complex,possibly even better.
I seriously never thought your comment was possible but cheers lol.
Yeah the original Batman that shows no mercy to criminals.
Even if you don't like metal, 2:16 is worth listening to.
10 years ago. I love this ochestra👌 nice!!!
I just got trolled so hard by TH-cam. This song ended and went straight into a google ad playing Photograph by Nickleback..........WTF TH-cam!!!!!
Imagine this song played together with an whole orchestra 😍
Most epic song ever. Period.
It was first Dimmu Borgir song,what i'm loved in 2003.
Possibly the best metal song of all times
Man this tour: Dimmu/Nevermore/Bodom/Hypocrisy was unreal.
Saw them live with behemoth and keep of kalseen
This song is the reason I love dimmu borgir and just black metal in general
Voice of vortex is so deep.ahhhhh
Dude, this is final boss theme worthy.
It looks like POPEYE tried to be a metal band vocalist
Its abbath . First line its abbath not shagrath
They made a good choice taking on the dude from Borknagar when they did. I've seen them live several times around Boston.
Sucks they had to lose the bassist
A Metal and Musical masterpiece... for our generation.
Those who "revel" in sewer equally.
Popeye approves this song
Yo fui trombonista, y sacar estas partes a puro oido fue todo un reto fascinante y placantero.
Best metal clean vocals solo ever done
I'm currently doing an acapella of this song, even the drums, cus I wanna see if I can do it lol.
Is it ok to listen to this if im a 13 year old girl?
you're a great girl! good luck!
You're awesome! It's not ok, it's fantastic
Hell yes. Keep it up \m/
Do whatever you want, no one can stop you
ist ok
Diminish the sub principle and leave its toxic trace
Once and for all
\m/
Started listening to this because of the symbolism. Stayed for the orchestra
Be ready,it's coming soon again it seems 😢
We'll try to rebuild with other geniuses that made it through ok❤
I love when songs save something insane for the mid or end (hence why cattle decap is the reigning champ of the 2020s)
The singing bit is crap way over layered with Sound to the point that it’s unpleasant unlike the rest of the song which is great!
Why could this be the version in the music video? The full album version, not some radio edit.
It took me a while, but I finally figured it out - the tempo of the song is a waltz.
Best Christian band ever, way better than Creed though they do shred
Christian?
@@whitemonoblos3605 They're trying to troll us. And poorly.
2:16 is the best part imo
My favorite part is the beginning with Popeye singing
4:37 impress all your blak friends this part is bumping
Abbath to sing here 😎
Demon Burger 👹⭐️🍔
Almost accidently clicked the live version without vortex
listened to this while grinding out castlevania. good fit!
Dimmu borgir umas das banda mais badass q existe nessa poha de mundo
Amazing kick ass song ! ALL riffs are great, the Chorus changing the Key is incredible and the orquestration its Just fenomenal! This composition is eternal.
This os EPIC. FUCKING AMAZING 🖤🔥
Say what you will, I still love them.
Love who?

Now it's 15. It's getting worse.

Im a christian my whole life and I like this music and others like it. This is no different that watching movies or TV with violence, sex and whatever. my belief and faith in GOD is without question.
Reminds me of batman animated series 95🤟🏻
Such a powerful victorious metal call to arms
Yes
Yo great work heartfelt lyrics thank you so mutch for all of your hard work the sacrifices you made and the hardships you endured along the way. I have seen people wearing your shirts from time to time so there is a lot of love out there for you. I am doing what I can to get by trying to get on my feet the townspeople have helped me some my neighbor moved out and left me some furniture and I inherited their cat. Anubis had a cat too so it's all good every good witch has a cat anyhow. Thank you again bless you all. Satan.
You cannot really compete with that particular... It's a bit too classy and epic.
Saw that coming from a mile away.
You are not goiig to make it.
I just listened to this after about ten years. I started it and it about blew my speakers out. I then thought man this is much heavier than I remember it being, then it hit that mid section and reminded me why this shit is sick as fuck.
those lyrics though
The invigoration part is pure poetry.
Love this song, but I have no idea what it is about. Does anybody else understand?
...better than video version...
This is so HD. My brain is happy
dhsnom quentom - holy temple
The song is about animals vs man kinda like the last planet of the apes movies
Now I can die in peace.
heel pro wrestler theme right here.
I’m buying a fucking home security system just to make this the song that plays in place of that pussy alarm noise
Did you? That's a great idea!
Become your own congregation
Best - metal - song - ever - .
Nope.
Maybe this the best symphonic black metal song but not for best metal
The Masterpiece
🤘🤘🤘🤘
this is the s#@#!! tks!!
IC Vortex 🔥
That repeating horn though 👍🏻👍🏻
insanely twisted shadow planet anyone?
