Dunno why there is so much hate on this page. This band is morbid and fucking intense, with excellent rhythms and vocals. The VOCAL, DEAR GODS, THE VOCALS. Just incredible, If you want to argue, attempt them.
Yes. I cannot understand how dumb some people are. Dimmu is a symphonic band, and Dark Fortress is guitar, bass and drums and some strange synth effects in the background sometimes.
Dark fortress kicks ass its an epic band and Morean made this gig even more epic, Ylem was a one hell of a masterpiece \m/ Keep up the good work CenturyMedia and thx for uploading \m/
Lethean crevasses Magnetized Inebriate the fallen Forebode the edge of night In absence Discovery of luscious pain Volcano hushed Boiling licks, sculpting memories Merciless hand Lacerating to devour Ever-seeing, sleepless drug Atramentous Atomize Forgetful, shunned by Perjuring light Walking asleep The core hungered, deprived Asleep Lost the light of day At the borders od emptiness The dusk of debauched desire's seizure Revealed, on nadir enthroned, A ceraunoscopic spectre A pulsing sclera, wants me, spewing faces From her hideous nidus at the edge of night Omniverous cascades Mesmerize Incubate the fallen Beget the edge of night Severed Limbs Jolting in spasm Convulsing to connect To lobotomized phantasms Asleep Lost the light of the day
I love that extremely thrashy, punk-rock kind of sound these guys have!!! Definitely one of my top styles of black metal... kinda makes me think of bands like Urgehal and Carpathian Forest.
As much as I love old Dark Fortress, they're like a 5. As soon as Morean joined they shot up to a fucking 10. This (everything from Eidolon until now) is their prime era. Hope they follow up Venereal Dawn strongly.
These guys wear their influences on their sleeves - the passage starting around 2:00 sounds exactly like Into the Nightside Eclipse. But these guys do it well, giving black metal an almost thrash like headbanging quality.
"Ignorance is bliss" People can live their whole lives with faith, in the end they're just as dead as everyone else but at least they had something to live for, the thought of god and redemption fake or not...
@SilenceIsSubmission Not necessarily Dark Fortress, it means Dark Cities. And no, no copyright infringement since their name is DIMMU BORGIR and this is DARK FORTRESS. There have been several bands of the same name, just different languages, and in that case, will be recognized as a different band. Kind of weird if you think about it, but no infringements here. Otherwise there would have been a big dispute already.
i ordered mine back in february or whenever early sale was, i got general admission pit, mainly to see them play, and im looking forward to whitechapel
I was thinking that too. Dimmu Borgir does mean Dark Fortress. This band is a bit like Dimmu, but without the atmospheric elements. They have a keyboard player, but what's he doing? You can't hear him.
@exactinmidget92 They're both better in different ways. Dimmu Borgir is bigger, more orchestral, has more power behind their music. Dark Fortress is usually a bit slower, creating a darker, more mournful atmosphere. They're both incredible in their own ways, in my opinion.
@BIATCHTHROAT yeah, but dark fortress is from germany. and given that there are bands that are way more similar (like naglfar and nagelfar), it's not so bad. Plus they're both good.
Guys my present opinion is prety much the same with CyberWastedSLAYER but this doesn't mean that religion is something that people should not follow. The fact is that religion is made by humans in order to have a greater power that we think it takes over our lives, so that we won't feel so guilty about our actions. Reigions have also helped many governments to control with an evious way their people. God may does exist, but following a religion is like joining any other type of team.
well genius, both bands were formed in 1994 one is from norway the other from germany...i don't think they took dimmu's name, and don't even think they knew about each other. there was no google then, and it was a hard time for any new band.
