Dimmu Borgir - Abrahadabra shirt

Shirt I found in the back of my closet. Not the most loved band on here, and especially this album seems to get alot of hate. But it is my #2 favourite band ever and I personally find Abrahadabra one of their best albums.

The hate I have for this band is when I talk to a girl who says they love Blackmetal, I bring up something like Bathory, they laugh and start telling how Dimmu is the ultimate in BM.

...which is why i dont talk about black metal much to people.
when people ask me what black metal is, my stock answer is always "if you have to ask, you don't deserve to know".

I as a fan of this band know they are not Black Metal, since... well... they don't sound like any of the black Metal bands I listnen too. But whatever they make I like it and I'm a fan. But I know what your talking about. Reminds me of this girl who noticed my Mayhem shirt and said: You like Black Metal? My ex-boyfriend likes that too his favourite were Behemoth and Cradle Of Filth... CRADLE OF FILTH!!!!

I liked this album. It felt like a harsher version of Therion. Garm's guest vocals on Endings and Continuations was also more than welcome.

Yeah your right IMO. Thnx for voting man.

I definitely don't like this band, but whatever man... it's obvious that you have every right to like them and the band itself has every right to take their own music in whatever which direction they choose to do so, for whatever reason they choose to do so as well.

I can't say I am a fan of what they did to their sound, and I can say the same for Cradle of Filth multiplied by a ten thousand, but it's their choice, and if we are/were not in those bands then our opinion as fans/listeners means little.

One thing I can say for sure though is, I am REALLY glad Vortex was fired from this band... that Arcturus reunion NEEDED to happen in order for my life to be complete, haha. :D

Five flames for your passion for the band and for just being a cool person!

THANKS MAN!!!! Yeah it is one of my favourite bands and I simply don't care how un-trve and un-black Metal that is... I simply am a fan of theyre work. And this part: 'One thing I can say for sure though is, I am REALLY glad Vortex was fired from this band... that Arcturus reunion NEEDED to happen in order for my life to be complete, haha. :D' really made me laugh because it reminds me of something I always say, I'm quite the Metallica fan but for some reason I can't stand Kirk. I really don't like him as an guitarist. And when friends of mine comment on that fact I always says theres one thing good about that guy, and that is the fact he made sure Mustaine had no place to go back to Metallica and he could start and play in one of my favourite bands: Megadeth. And your right about Cradle of Filth. Though I have to admit Dusk and Her Embrace is one of my favourite albums.

Kinda sad when your second album (demo's not counting) is your last inspired one... I mean the last two were just plain horrible IMO. Thornography did gave me a nice laugh so now and then I have to admit...

LaUlvenDrepe's picture

Haha, I actually enjoy Dimmu Borgir's early work, and the same goes for Cradle of Filth. Dusk and Her Embrace really is a masterpiece. What I meant though was the direction that both those bands went, that's when I stopped liking them.

Still, I don't bother hating bands because I dislike the changes they've made, I don't waste my time like that. If they (the band) moved on, so can I.

Yeah. This album and things like 'in Sorte Diaboli' aren't the reason I'm a fan of Dimmu believe me. It's the early work I really really like, doesn't take away the fact I still like this album. I only definitly don't aproach it as Black Metal. Not even as Metal in general... I call it 'Movie Music' I mean 'Gateways' could be in the background of an epic Fantasy battle (like those in LOTR for example) but it's not Metal anymore.... Too much 'bombastic' I think... can't put it in other words. Still is fucking enjoyable to me either way....
