@tor Dude chill, I really liked Vortex, aswell as 99% of old Dimmu Borgir fans. "Keep calm beacause man united sucks", you have as bad taste in music as in football :D
I find their live performances really intriguing, because I have no idea what sound is going to come out of Shagrath's mouth next. It's really amazing what a vocal range he has.
Tony Amott yeah I agree totally. I never was a fan until I saw this video, kinda lumped them in with Cradle as the most mainstream black metal bands. I wonder if they're one of those groups that their energy just can't be captured in the studio
the crowd did suck. i was in the near front with a friend and we were the only guys i could see that were fans of dimmu borgir. at the time of this show you have to remember that dimmu was virtually unknown in america. they still were trying to push into the american market. on a side note after their set a couple of people were in awe of the show like "what was that, it was the best live performance i have ever seen"
I saw them on this run of ozzfest 2004, I am not into black metal too much but they sounded great, strong atmosphere, they may of had the best sound quality of all the bands there, I picked up a couple of their records because of that show
"Glance into the blackness hidden beneath your surface And enjoy the suffering, sanity drained in disrespect With such be devilled faith in good, subsequently trusting evil Next step for mankind will be the last seasons in sin"
Those vocals are perfect.They just incorporate the true meaning of the whole song in that lyrical part,and if they would have been growled,they'd have been just like the rest of the lyrics,but those vocals really take them out,at the surface,those vocals give the lyrics power and meaning
4:45 Glance into the blackness hidden beneath your surface, and enjoy the suffering, sanity drained in disrespect. With such bedevilled faith in good, subsequently trusting evil. Next step for mankind will be the last seasons in sin This is Vortex, never forget this performance ppl
One of VERY few bands that could probably record an album without all of the modifications to make it sounds "perfect". Shagrath's voice sounds excellent without anything to enhance it ^_^. Dimmu Borgir will always be one of my top 5 favorite bands
dude this was the first dimmu video i saw at age 14, man, time goes flying.... it only had around 150k views and now suddenly it blew up :D im glad to see more people appreciating the music instead of fighting of which metal is the best
Dimmu is popular simply because it's a great band. Being successful doesn't necessaryliy mean selling out. I can honestly tell that not a single pop music fan who listens to some mainstream rapper idiots wouldn't stand Dimmu Borgir. The band is for thinking people not some lo lifes, as is majority of heavy metal in general.
So sad that those times including this fckn awesome line up won‘t come back! The mixture makes this song so amazing!!! I really wanna have a time machine, leaving covid sht and go back to this great times of Dimmu Borgir!
I usually find black metal artists to look horribly cringy, but these guys... You just can tell by the looks who's the real deal, so to speak. They're one of my favorites though so I might be just a little bit biased... :P
Stefan Dieters everyone knows moshing is part of metal concert (most times) i dont think calling people who enjoy moshing "derp" is logical (i like this song)
Darksanity96 hell yeah !!! those Metal festivals was created to really have fun, i'm not goin to stay like statue with Dimmu borgir on front of me,that's really derp !!!, it's amazing drink beers,smoke weed,make mosh pit and go fucking cracy in a concert like this :D !!!
@ ilzen ver'khaan Truth known, Vortex never could sing for shit. He relied on reverb and overdubbing. I never did get why he was so overrated - probably because his verses were so well composed...which has more to do with Silenoz's writing than Vortex's singing.
You're right, unfortunately for Vortex... And also, you know how non-metal people feel about screams/growls vs. clean singing. They sometimes like a metal song only for that one part with clean vocals. I get that, but opposite: I like to get to the screaming part of a non-metal band (you know, things like Pearl Jam and such).
Lay off of Vortex he at least had a genuine background in Opera for his vocals. I'm sad to hear you prefer Dimmu as they are now, the Shagrath experience band. I don't believe Vortex was overrated at any time.
Arthur Sikora I never said that I preferred Dimmu Borgir as they are now. I actually prefer them as they were before EDT. They never were a pure black metal band but at least their first two albums, For all Tid and Stormblast, was symphonic black metal. Now they're not even that. Symphonic extreme metal more like it.
you gotta be fucking kidding me. that man has an amazingly haunting and powerful voice. he just likes the booze a bit. this comment not influenced by the fact i think dimmu is a steaming shit pile aside from vortex's minimal contributions. check out arcturus with vortex.
2024! We are here!
Yesss!!!!!!!
One of the greatest Black Metal songs of all time...
golden era of dimmu
Iconic band - their music is a great portal to metal for the people with traditional musical taste
One of the best live performances you will ever see.
This is my favorite Dimmu song
i have watched your video since 2008 . whean i started the uiniversity, now i am engineer, thanks
DIMMU BORGIR= Kings of Symphonic Black Metal!!! \m/
I could listen to that fuckin clear vocal part for the eternity! Hail Vortex
Arcturus - he lends the gift of his voice for a few of their records
God damn ICS Vortex has a majestic voice.
+3rd World Gamer agree
yes sir he does
ICS VORTEX SUCK GOOD THEY FIRED THAT ASSHOLE OF A BASS PLAYER WHO CANT SING AT ALL ITS JUST SOM CRAPPY AUTOTUNE MAGIC AFTER ALL !!
@tor Dude chill, I really liked Vortex, aswell as 99% of old Dimmu Borgir fans. "Keep calm beacause man united sucks", you have as bad taste in music as in football :D
He is good same me
That Dimmu lineup with Nick Barker on the drums is the best live I've ever seen.
IS that Nick Barker tho?
No, its Tony Laureano.@@bastiandahlberg138
hell hammer but it is my opinion cheers
@@METALisentfortheweak No that's Tony.
Beautiful classic
im from IRAN and like Dimmu \m/
Hope you are fine and good. Hail from Mexico
4:45 to 5:58 is one of the most incredible pieces of music ever written. fact
that is fucking true!!
Jaw droppingly good!
Majestic stuff .
Galder is fuckning guitar wizard!
For me that's the worst part of the song... cant stand that cringeworthy voice.
If I could play like 0,5% of how these guys play I could call myself a great musician. What an amazing performance, damn!
Beautiful work guys, I love and appreciate your work. Brilliant!!
I find their live performances really intriguing, because I have no idea what sound is going to come out of Shagrath's mouth next. It's really amazing what a vocal range he has.
i actually like that version better than studio one
the studio one sounds kinda weak.... Here u can really feel the energy in the performance
Vortex is actually better live
Tony Amott yeah I agree totally. I never was a fan until I saw this video, kinda lumped them in with Cradle as the most mainstream black metal bands. I wonder if they're one of those groups that their energy just can't be captured in the studio
JParks1981
i think they just over produce in the studio so it loses the raw aspect
George Clarke
Most likely
4:46 Feel the power of this voice!!!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
4:46 FEEL DA POWER OF AUTOTUNE PLAYBACKS

This live recording is actually better than the version on Spotify. In other words Dimmu is magic!
Try qobuz or tidal you have flac and studio sound quality there
My Favorite band EVER!!! ImI

Shagrath...... amazing vocal... I love him so much!! ^^

@AlbumCollector92 Ok. Can you go get a job please. I have one so you can have one too.
shagraths voice is average. vortex is godlike, fact
This is SOO amazing!! I wish they would come to the U.S. I would love to see them live so much!

Vortex... I miss his clean vocals on DB!
The clean singing passage puts this song to pure awesomeness
metal bassists be like "keep hammering that e string!"
Lol his voice when talking, I'm like calm down broski you don't have to act badass.
+Agent Orange that's his normal speaking voice...now imagine him in an Arby's drive thru
lol I'd shit myself
I'm sorry but that is NOT his normal speaking voice...how can you not hear the obvious strain to sound like a billy bad ass.. come on dude.
Wtf imagine talking a walk in the evening and he comes out of nowhere and just says "hello do you know where__is?" lol scary
my definition of scary isn't walking into a random guy with makeup on..
Ics Vortex..
O melhor Mano
Peak dimmu!
This band should not play during the day time.
Lyrics are written for an existing song. Noone composes music around lyrics.
