Watain - The Somberlain (Dissection cover) live 16 May 2007 at Jaxx in Springfield, Virginia 

Well, there were maybe 30 people at the show, no one knew who Watain was at the time. I was there right in front of Erik with my hand up the entire song, screaming inside at the fact I finally was able to hear it live with 2 of the remaining members of Dissection.

Paying tribute to a friend.

This beautiful silence calls me now

I don't know about you guys but to me this song and Waters of Ain are two dear songs which I always love and adore.

A beautiful moment

I fucking love this song and Watain!!! Hail Dissection, Hail Watain!!!

Great video! And a good cover. Respect to Watain for keeping the legacy of Dissection alive.

It's 12 years no fucking way I came back here for the memories

That's amazing that they played that, really wish I was there.

Respect watain for dissection

R.I.K JON. Also this must have brought back memories from the Rebirth of Dissection tour for Set.

best thing watain have done

Добро! То и без това Set и Ерик са си били членове на Dissection... Нищо чудно, че е толкова добър кавър.. :)

i like how the guy calls them a dissection rip off when there covering a dissection song. there not calling it there own. and watain is fuckin awesome

Anyone have this on mp3?

Hur många gånger har Hoffa satt på den här låten på fyllan?

what happened to Erik's voice?

watian is cool as hell, i like their album lawless darkness... but this cover doesnt cut it for me. his vocals arent in the same range as jon nodtveidt, thats the only flaw i see in this song. but watain is kickass in their own way

Dissection is the best band ever

wow 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

In my opinion this is the only band that should play a cover of Jon's work... Seeing as Set was in the band and they follow the same beliefs... Jon would be very proud of this performance and not for any other band.

where is the rest of the song?

Brother Set

I mean, two of them were in Dissection, i fully respect and love the band, but some details in this song, and i get it, Black Metal (speaking in general here) is supposed to be very rough and un-polished in a way, but personally, i am a perfectionist myself and i am a bit ashamed to say it, but i personally think this cover sounds a bit strange, in a good way, because i have listened to this song way too many times and i play guitar and the little details that the song consists of are imbeded into my mind, which can be a very bad thing in some circumstances, and these make the song sound rather bizzare for me at least, but again, i absolutly love it and the band. Please do not be mad at me, guys, just here to express both my massive respect and admirance for these guys! Take what i say with a grain of salt :D

The only band that can play the somberlain with the correct tune

utterly true.

i fucking love this song i fucking love Dissection and i fucking love Watain!!!!

@RapeJesus Erik did backing vocals on some of the Reinkaos tracks

I love their stage presence, so sanctuary like, and it's probably better then Gorgoroth's but I don't know, they both have good live stages... Hails

AMAZING INDEED!!!!

Is that SET from dissection ?

got a bit of a question here, is this with Set and Selim at the same time? that would be absolutley perfect

isnt one of watains guitarists dissections old guitarist?

@miketbf it's the song's lyrics actually.

Dissection legacy

@Marduksson you know, the guitarist was the same as on reinkaos, and the vocalist was a background singer on reinkaos too? this cover is awesome and not even close to spittineg on jons face, these musicians have been close friends to jon. the only good somberlain cover next to thulcandras cover of this song.

yea i kinda had a feeling cause he was playing it like at the rebirth of dissection concert

I agree

THE BEST CROWD LIVE IN SOUTHAMERICA ( CHILE) D=

Yeah that's Set Teitan ex-Aborym and played on The Return of Dissection tour

No words

Erik was in Dissection as well. Watain rules your face posers!

Si tocan esa canción aquí en Tijuana me voy a retorcer como lombriz.

watain.. very fucking great band!

The version of the versions...

Criminal record I do believe. Erik discussed it in some interviews.

Yeah I wonder what he feels when the song is played live..?

i agree quorthorn is essential to it

what fhe fuxk just happened omg only 5 min..

Worship Jon for 666 days!

@DINFERI Why would this be 'shitty' black metal? It might not be as good as the original, but they did a nice job. Black Metal is certainly not limited to bands you name there. It's good to have some variety in this genre. Do you also think that Carach Angren and Dimmu Borgir are shitty black metal bands then?

ric jon!

It means something to have been a part of the later Dissection. He knows what satanism is.

@efi6 Quourthon was the father and Euronymous was the godfather of blackmetal.

@DINFERI You're the kind of guy that hates evrything that isn't your personal style?

Man the guy who shot this needs to take camera lessons.

@efi6 technically it was Snorre W. Ruche. Thorns for the fucking winnnnn. Blackthrone, Hellhammer, Satyr, and Vikernes are the satan of black metal. would be the best line up

Seriously, this is NOTHING compared to how Dissection used to play it live.

That was a very childish reply. I do love mortuus vocals in Marduk, but you can't tell me what I like, everyone likes different things, do i suck because i like his vocals? please grow up

Too bad Set can't into the states anymore

HOMAGE!

Does not compare to the original! They should stick to their own stuff where they, obviously, excels :)

wow Erick saids "..to the gates.. ¡The Somberlain!:.." and nobody screams, and then sounds the main rifff of the song and nothing , none scream for the song, what a bad crowd

Watain is probably the best band in the world, Erik Danielssons vocals are insane, listen to the earlier albums and you'll see, i personally think Watain is the best band ever, not even marduk can beat them

is the bald guy Set the guitarest for dissection lol looks like him

If you say BM is dead then you obviously dont know what you're talking about.

wtf's wrong with this guy?i didnt hear of him

Grande performance. Sound pessimo ma.. Chi se ne frega

jon wouldnt approve...

@Macajordonie Dimmu borgir isn't black metal anymore and they are just fucking awful

Weak cover....

Wow that sucked

??? OMG...so tacky

wow this is horrible :S
