DIMMU BORGIR "Gateways" Metal Vocalist / Vocal Coach reaction & Analysis
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 8 พ.ค. 2021
- Shagrath and Agnete Kjølsrud are an insanely dynamic duo! I was blown away by Shagrath's deep, textured growls and narration, and blasted to bits by Agnete's soaring belts and shrieking fry screams. Dimmu Borgir is a band I slept on WAY too long!

Progenies of the great apocalypse is the goat. The vocals will blow your mind.
Make sure to check out Mourning Palace live next! It's the song that got me into Dimmu
We need more black metal
Nargaroth
Go check out their Ozzfest 04 set! You don't get that same Gaahl like stage presence from him, but I think you would appreciate it.
Also on the topic of Gaahl, his Wacken 2008 set with God Seed is literally one of the greatest things I have witnessed. He totally has that oppressive, violent, and primal scream going on the entire time.
Check out MaYaN its a dutch band with various artists from other countries ranging from opera singers to grunting lots of stuff going on in all there songs
Progenies of the great apocalypse from the same gig is an amazing performance
My favorite song on that album.
YES PLS
This is the one
This
Yes please
It makes me happy to see how much you enjoyed this. Dimmu is the band the really opened me up to black metal.
"Let's be professional. That was dope" 😂
Yes! Dimmu is also the band that opened me up to black metal, they are incredible
More Dimmu Borgir, please, especially ‘In Sorte Diaboli’, ‘Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia’ or even earlier material
@@malcolmdriggs8388 gawd I love Puritania. I’m digging Council of the Wolves and the Snakes as well
This might sound weird, but bear with me. When I first tried a bloody mary; I hated it. It didn’t make sense to me. But, at one point, I worked as a bartender and started making bloody Mary’s from scratch. Suddenly; my brain understood what I was tasting. From that moment; I couldn’t get enough.
On a similar note - there was a time when I didn’t understand death metal. This channel has changed that.
And, well…
I just can’t get enough.
Good analogy, bro. I absolutely love that Bloody Mary flavor. Likewise, I don't expect everybody to love Norwegian Black Metal. But once you get that taste in your mouth, it's never leaving. It's irreplaceable.
Great
@@nightmaster5593 gaahl
I always compare how I started listening from Linkin Park to the most extremw metal music with all the spicy stuff, always want more and more.
And yes, LOVE Bloody Mary
That was me and metal in general. I definitely need to give Bloody Mary a shot.
"Be the broken or the breaker
Be the giver or the undertaker
Unlock and open the door
Be the healer or the faker
The keys are in your hands
Realize you are your own sole creator
Of your own master plan"
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🖤
Your reaction was priceless 😄😄 That end section is my favorite part even on the official music video too. Do more!
It’s most def a goosebumps moment everytim 🤘
be the broken or the breaker is tattooed on my chest. when i first heard the song and heard those lyrics, it just hit me different and I had to get something to remember it
Agnete stole the show. Her vocals were so damn powerful.
Shagrath's vocals are just...so unique...you just KNOW it's him when you hear them
I love they are still understandable. I can listen to the words.. something i cannot always do with other bands.
@@themplar definitely has some of the cleanest harsh vocals going around!
@@Dr_Footbrake or he took vocal lessons and he knows how to do harsh vocals with diction. :)
he sounds just like abbath
Agnete captures both the essence of the banshee's scream and the siren's song all at once. Such a commanding vocal presence.
last section is art: epic, cathartic, apocalyptic - hard to find a song like that. Instant hair raising.
As a Norwegian this reaction makes me happy and you're excused for the pronunciations
That's why DIMMU BORGIR is my favourite black metal band 🔥🔥🔥
Mine is Epica, but this was fantastic :)
That ending section is just one of the best pieces of music ever I think. Agnete is amazing here. I wish she had a band in kinda this style, this is still my favorite thing I've heard from her.
Hoping for Mourning Palace live next 🤞🏼
Hear the screams from the Mourning Palace!
OH MY GOSH I LOVE THAT SONG
Mourning Palace is perhaps the most beautiful song I've ever heard
Kings of the Carnival Creation!!! Mourning Palace!
Loved seeing you experience Dimmu. Back when they had ICS Vortex in their band adding clean vocals now and then, they had an incredible texture like this song did, the vocal interplay.
mourning palace live @ wacken.. HELLS YES.
Absolutly. The Vocals of ICS Vortex made me fall in love with Dimmu Borgir and imho they have not found a good way to perform those "older" songs without him. So even if the Video and Sound Quality of older performances are not super awesome. Those Vocals make them a better version of the song. Actually the Kings of the Carnival Creation official live Video has a good sound quality.
It's impossible not to love Agnete's presence and crazy voice. I've been a fan since the first Animal Alpha's album and loved everything she's been releasing. I hope you'll enjoy her musical career.
Whenever you get to "Progenies of the great Apocalypse" , I hope you listen to the version with Vortex. Don't get me wrong, the choir is awesome. But Vortex' voice is on another level.
You could also compare both live versions, I think that would make for a great video!
Anyway, great reaction! Looking forward to more Dimmu Borgir here :)
I second this! Vortex is very unique!
fuck yes!!! can't go wrong ever with ICS Vortex.
Any track that has ICS Vortex on it to be honest.
Dimmu's live performance is a life experience... tears of beauty 🥲
Yeah, I would have loved to have been there!
I watch a lot of reaction videos and most fall flat. However, gems like this are what I do this for. To watch someone else really understand and feel the same things I do when listening to my favorite songs. You hit on everything that I love about this song in particular. Watching you “get it” is so rewarding for me. Great video, man. Subbed.
Shagrath's vocals were best during their 1997 album "Enthrone Darkness Triumphant". He had demonic shrieks back then, as heard in songs like "Relinquishment of Spirit and Flesh". Also, you totally missed the opportunity to analyze the vocals of ex-bassist ICS Vortex. His majestic cleans are out of this world on songs like Progenies of the Great Apocalypse.
That being said, Dimmu Borgir will always remain my favourite band, due to their 2001 album "Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia", which is perfect in my opinion. Thanks for picking them for a video regardless!
Agree
Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia and Death Cult Armageddon are two albums i can just put on an let run. Those two were peak Dimmu for me.
@@GallifreyeanTrailers Agreed! But also lately I've realized "Spiritual Black Dimensions" is highly underrated and overlooked. It has some gems. Vortex is there, the atmosphere is great with synths, organs, piano, and the drums and guitars go crazy. I feel "The Insight and the Catharsis" is one of their best songs.
Very recently I re-listened to "In Sorte Diaboli" again and was surprised it was better than I remembered.
So for me, Puritanical is at the top, but barely below it I have Enthrone, Spiritual, and Death Cult all tied.
I'm thinking of making a Dimmu Borgir album tier list video, haha.
@@Benobot99 I never really understood the disdain for In Sorte Diabloi. It's a good album. Especially good for a concept album, which i tend to dislike. It's just not as good as the two previous ones. ^^
@@Benobot99 Yeah, SBD is really a great album and vastly underestimated. Besides 'The Insight..' the song 'Dreamside Dominions' is truly a masterpiece.
Gateways is a beautifully written song. Absolute masterpiece.
I think I've never seen Mark be so excited about a song and I'M ABSOLUTELY HERE FOR IT. You definitely need to do more Dimmu Borgir
God your reaction to that last section was EVERYTHING. It's my favorite part of the song, her power and resonance is so haunting there.
19:34 I know Dimmu Borgir is a bit 'norm' tier black metal and may not be to everyone's tastes, they're not entirely to mine in fact a lot of the time but I've dug through their discography and selected some gems to keep in circulation. This track is one of my favourites for much the same reason it seems like you enjoyed it. Really satisfying to see them validated and have their strengths admired. Got a huge kick seeing you lose it during the preceding section.. :D
Even long after I've tapered off of Dimmu's music, Shagrath is still one of my fav vocalists. The intro to Mourning Palace never ceases to kick my ass.
I would absolutely LOVE to see Dimmu Borgir live with an orchestra and a choir some day! 🖤 This is one of my favourite songs by them and I loved your reaction to and analysis on it!
I think the thing I like most about your videos is that you are so incredibly open-minded, this showed in this video especially. Really cool! 🙌
I don't really listen to Death Metal or Core, it's just a bit much for me most of the time and to be honest Dimmu Borgir is the only Black Metal band I listen to because of the symphonic aspect. I love Symphonic Metal more than anything and Nightwish is my favourite band on earth. I found your channel through your reaction to Lord of the Lost (who I absolutely adore as well) and then watched your videos on Nightwish after that.
I sing too and I find it fascinating to learn so much about growling and screaming from you, even though it is not what I do. I always wondered how people can do this stuff without distroying their voice, so I find it incredible to watch you do all these different things with your voice throughout the videos when you explain what these artists are doing exactly.
I found your channel only two days ago, so I have a whole lot of binge-watching ahead of me! 😃 Keep up the amazing work!! 🖤 Much love from Germany 🤘🤗
That's so awesome, Nea! Thanks for taking the time to type out such a detailed comment and share your story. I appreciate you greatly. Welcome to the Kardavox family, I hope you find plenty more to love!
Plus, if ever you want to add screaming to your vocal toolbox, feel free to drop me an email! :D
I think Shagrath has a technique for each syllable. Like false chorus for "oh"s or fries for "eh"s. He build his own sound over the years. Now if you go back to the earlier stuff when it was more screaming vocals you can hear the technique is very different, much more traditional. Try listening to a song like Spellbound and you'll hear what I mean.
Please do more black metal stuff . It's very refreshing to see a different take on the techniques used . And also it's awesome seeing a insanely genuine reaction to an awesome song
I love black metal, so I definitely want to do more!
YESSSS I cannot wait! One of my faves, really curious to see your reaction! 🖤🤘
The last 30 seconds of this song should be in EVERY SERIOUS FILM TRAILER EVER!
The fact that they have a live symphony orchestra and choir makes me so happy
This is my favorite reaction of yours to date. It was wild to see you really work for how these sounds were made, and I would love to see you do more DB songs!
Dimmu Borgir has never put out a bad album. Period. If you can find a good video of them performing Progenies of the Great Apocalypse live when Vortex was the bassist, I'd love to hear your honest reaction to his voice. Absolute power.
If you pay attention, Shagrath did say "Dimmu Borgir" in the intro as well as introducing the lady, but I also have trouble with her name. Lol
The point is, it's hard G.
Also, as a suggestion I think it is quite clear that next you should do Progenies of the great Apocalypse live at Ozzfest 2004.
Yeah, it's one of their best performances ever.
He does say dimmu borgir, ends the first little bit with kveld (evening), and ends the intro with "Agnete fra Djerv" (Agnete from Djerv)
Damn, and here I am thinking that he’s been saying “HAIL SA- TAN” at the intro
It's SO NICE AND REFRESHING to see someone being so GENUINELY excited like you are. I love it! And this song is a masterpiece too.
I feel you man, that performance gets me going in multiple ways.
Love the transparency and how genuinely excited you get on all the beautiful parts.
My favorite song by Dimmu Borgir, and a truly spectacular live show. As a first time viewer, I enjoyed the heck out of how much you enjoyed this.
The first time I heard that duet outro, I was driving. I pulled the car over, pinched myself, looked around, wondered what happened. The amount of emotions is immense on that outro. Her voice is haunting, his voice is haunting, it’s amazing, fucking hell.
I love this song and I love how into music you are, it pumps me up watching you react to these songs with the same enthusiasm as I myself also have! Keep up the great work, the icings on the cake is how smart you are in your breakdown and assessment.
Metal Blade Records just casually popping your ‘“The Baring of Shadows” record on their TH-cam page yesterday. Great album man!! 🤘
I'm so stoked to see you reacting to this!! This song is incredible and this band is amazing. Agnete and Shagrath are both such ICONS
This song is from the pinnacle of this Band imo. Love the album Abrahadabrah, Long Live Dimmu Borgir
I absolutely adore this band! Thank you so much for this beautiful gift to us all!
Man, was waiting for this review for months Omg.
Excellent video. Greetings from Mexico
OMG!!!! MARK I CANT WAIT!
Man, you gotta do a reaction to Djerv! Need more Agnete out here.. "Headstone", "Grusome Twosome" or "Bowling Pin" would be some of my picks.
Also, had the pleasure of catching them live back in 2011 or 2012. And off-stage Agnete is just the nicest person ever.
I would also suggest Agnete's Animal Alpha stuff. Damn, I miss that band.
This was probably my favorite breakdown you've done!
I cant tell you how many times I watched this performance, it is bad fuckin ass.
Do more Dimmu Borgir, found this channel cause of it. they have some amazing epic songs.
I absolutely love seeing you get this excited over powerful parts in songs like this.
I love love love this video and especially how you loved the song! Please please do more Dimmu Borgir videos!
This is my favorite dimmu song bar none. And this live performance is fucking amazing
Love it sir...ive watched dimmu for awhile...insane...
Gateways is one of my favorite Dimmu songs, it was awesome to see your reaction to it, as I felt the same when I first heard this song I was blown away! Sending you love from down under in New Zealand 🤘🏻
Finally! There's not enough reactions to Dimmu Borgir online! :D
Well done. More!
So sick. It's a friggin experience to watch that performance. I wish I saw it live. That was my first time hearing them ever. Now I'll be on a dimmu borgir kick for the foreseeable future.
you should *ABSOLUTELY* do more Dimmu!
Yes pleas do more!
Your amazing enthusiasm just earned you a subscriber🙌🙌🙌That description of Gaahl's into-the-void-gaze was on f*cking point😂🤘
Dude you've got me addicted to this band. Especially this song. It's so rare I get chills from hearing any kind of metal band. Death was the last band I heard that gave me chills and before that it was Cattle decap. Amazing performance.
Shagrath has my absolute favourite black metal voice. More Dimmu, please!
My all-time favorite song by my all-time favourite band!
You are a real talented man! The way you broke down shagrath and his vocal composition, being that of a throat singer/Opramatic understanding. And this man mimics shagrath ever so well upon his first analysis. This is a truly talented man and musician. Accomplished I imagined in some way. But nevertheless truly understanding an artist when he hears truth within talent! Thank you our good sir! Please post more!
Your reaction when you heard Agnete first time got me insta sub! gonna binge watch some of your vids, so far; excellente content!!
Yeah, more Dimmu please! As mentioned by loads of others, do some earlier stuff. Especially Mourning Palace and Kings of The Carnaval Creation would be very much appreciated! Furthermore thanks in general for picking Dimmu. Takes me back some years and really got me into a DB wormhole myself.
This is the first video I watch from your channel... Damn, I'm subscribing!!!
You can REALLY tell that you love doing this :D
Awesome reaction and this is an satisfaction performance it is on point and an awesome concert
🖤 Thank you so much for this reaction video! 🖤 I would love to hear more from you reacting to Dimmu Borgir. 🖤 In 1997 I started listening to Dimmu Borgir and I went to a lot of concerts and festivals in Germany to listen to their live performances. It was always a great pleasure to listen to them. 🖤
Love to see someone with such passion for music listen to one of my all time favorite songs for the first time. My reaction today is still the same when THE section hits as it was back then. Masterpiece.
So happy to see some Dimmi Bogir. I have seen them live not that long ago and man was it a great koncert. I love the "Enthrone Darkness Triumphant" album. 🤘😄 so keep it coming!
One thing i love about Agnete is the way she wants to connect with the audience, she is basically bending over the monitor to make sure they connect. If she could she would be right in front of them, among them connecting with each one of them. Great reaction btw.
Awesome!
Surely the next logical band to react to is Cradle of Filth? Dani Filth and his high pitched demon shrieks are so unique to him
Yes yes yes, Dani from CoF, I have no clue as to how he gets the vocals he does and his Vocal range is immense
If he checks out Cradle, I hope he goes for the Cruelty and the Beast and Midian era.
Yes that would be awesome. I think the Midian or Cruelty and the Beast songs would be best!
YES, DO IT MARK!
Dani Filth is Shakespeare gone demonic.
I’m glad you liked this so much. It’s not my main cup of tea but this band and Cradle of Filth scratch an itch for me that no other band does
YESSSS PLEASE!! More Dimmu!!!
Great analysis. Love your passion for black metal.
Oh how I love this kind of live performances ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Agnete is smokin’
"Kings of the Carnival Creation" and "Blessings Upon The Throne of Tyranny" will rock you world, mayne.
You are rapidly becoming my favorite coach/reactor, and I LOVE “Snow Sleep”
I personally prefer Kardashev’s “Torchpassing,” but I have to admit that both songs have made me tear up, which not easy to do. So congrats to Mark and the gang.
u should definitely check out her other older act Animal Alpha...especially the video for Bundy, LOVE IT!!!
I think you'd really enjoy Borknagar. Winter Thrice has so many amazing vocalists featured.
Colossus!
@@GeminiWoods I think the number of guests in Winter Thrice gives a lot to dissect. Garm, ICS Vortex and Vintersorg in one song. They have a lot of great songs though.
She's so good!!!!
Such a good track
So good 👍👍👍
This song is a pure masterpiece
So incredibly epic
Someone needs to point out how fooking heavy the brass in the orchestra makes this song.
Holy sheeeet! Every metal band that wants to be truly heavy should have some brass in the background!
oh hell yes. this song is so good!
Watching you be Shagrath was DOPE.
Hahaha.
Subbed.
Hell yeah, thanks dude! Welcome to the Kardavox family!
It's sooo nice to see someone going through all the emotions while listening to this piece and going through the same emotions as i do. It makes me feel as we are listening to in together. Agnete is truly a gem in this song.
Nice job on the video my ninja
Glad you liked it!
You need to do septicflesh.
Anubis, nazereth or something slse featuring sotris' clean vocals.
His voice has an amazing tone.
Dimmu Borgir are so cool! Amazing group of musicians
Definitely go back and listen to Dimmu's earlier work, from the beginning!
If you like how the girl sounded like, you should definitely check out Julie Christmas' collaboration with Cult of Luna
Holy fuck YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mariner is probably my favourite metal album of the 2010-20 decade.
Hell yeah! Anything with Julie Christmas is worth checking out. Made Out of Babies, Battle of Mice and even some performances with Spylocopa.
i was there =) my home contry Norway =D loved this concert :D
Man I really love how you sound at 24:16 cheers from Sweden!
Drinking Horn would be a great prop since it goes with almost all metal.
