| | I enjoy both older and newer Dimmu Borgir. I must say that it annoys me to death when I hear a fan of extreme music say they hate newer Dimmu Borgir and love older Dimmu Borgir. Just because they are more well known and aren't TR00 and KVLT doesn't mean they produce terrible music. So many people only hate Dimmu Borgir because they aren't KVLT which is fucking retarded. Get the fuck over yourselfs, if your a fan of this type of music, you'll like them. |

cradle still have some dignity on the basis that despite selling out, they're still a decent band. | While I agree with you, I'd say it's the other way around. IMO Dimmu seem to have more dignity nowadays because newer albums (OK, maybe not DCA) like PEM were actually really kick ass albums. Cradle, ugh. I can't even stand to hear their fuckin name anymore. Nymphetamine, very fucking clever. GILDED CUNT!!! EEEERGH! NOW I'M METAL!
(you get the idea)
In my opinion, Dimmu Borgir's old stuff is lame and boring. I don't care whether or not it's true, I just don't like it. And though I wouldn't call myself a Dimmu fan, their newer stuff is definetly more worthwhile than their older.
Does anyone else like their newer stuff better? | I personnaly do. I find the older stuff quite boring and uninteresting. On the contrary I like the 4 last album very much and the way they mix black metal to more heavy sounds and some real thrash rhythms.
And I still can't imagine how Dimmu can be compared to Cradle... I can't hear anything to justify it, and I never found anything interesting in Cradle's music.

| | It's possible that you like them, but that doesn't mean everybody else have to think they're good. Their early stuff was all right, but because they have been selling out I refuse to listen to anything from them. They don't deserve that attention. |

| | I find the early stuff pretty boring actually. Other bands like Nokturnal Mortum are better at the symphonic thing! |

| | Yeah, indeed. I'm not much for the early stuff of Dimmu Borgir either, but I certainly think it's better than the new stuff. | | Thread Tools | | | | Display Modes | Linear Mode |
