Old man's child > Dimmu Borgir

Galder is a black metal legend ppl don't realize how bad ass how many solid albums he as written or been a huge part of like Dimmu borgir everything since he joined Dimmu has been pushed by his writing and song structuting he can rip it on acoustic classical pieces shredding solos his riffs and his amazing keyboards on every album also his vocals are killer

Damn right!!

Its obvious he was a big part of the new dimmu sound From Puritanical and beyond

still waiting for the new OMC album.

Like Abbath

Virtuosos will say knowing theory like you know the alphabet will unlock your potential but that's bullshit. I think it just makes you able to play anything but lose a lot of creativity. Guys like Yngwie/Gilbert/etc. are incredible guitarists but hardly have a memorable song to anyone who isn't a complete guitar nerd.

that's why dream theater is FUCKING BORING, all of the members are superb in theory and technique but songs are shit

Being bound by the standard always holds back creativity. Abstract thought is best in music as opposed to the strictly educated. Experimentation can yield such amazing things when not held back by the norm

@@Charles_Anthony This is one of the stupidest and most ignorant comments I have ever read. Seriously dude, you are full of shit

+Teodor Kasabov Thanks

All nice but sound of In Sorte Diaboli album is terrible. These guitars sound like... a planer :/ Probably active pickups right? Abrahadabra has the same problem. Plastic sound without power.

oh, nice man! thanks

TheOrangeFondler hell yeah dude. im looking forward to dimmu's new album. i hope that they go back to their older roots. i liked the last album, don't get me wrong, but i the older albums was always better though.

Rod Gill i'd like to hear another Death Cult Armageddon or Puritanical Misanthropy...my two favorite albums by them for sure :)

***** hell yeah man. death cult armageddon is one of my favorite albums by the band. we will just have to see a bit later on this year because dimmu borgir is supposed to have a new album and stuff by then.

+Rod Gill There's not much I wouldn't do for another EDT :D

yep i prefer riffs first, loud guitars with keys behind creating a dark atmosphere rather than the keys out front with guitars behind playing the root notes in a boring kinda way

Same here. I'm currently looking for information on the guitar sound in Puritanical Euphoric Eisanthropia. One forum suggested they had a studio film on KZfaq, but I'm yet to find it.

@@matttaylor1449 found it yet?

@@matttaylor1449 that album was mainly a 5150 and Duncan JB bridge pickup I believe.

The first two albums are not even riff-based, and Galder joined DM around 1999-2000. He didn't play in the first 3 albums, including Enthrone Darkness Triumphant which is their first album in English.

MoonOvIce who was it? Because those are my favorite. I’m a huge immortal fan too.

He did play on spirtual.

Astennu and silenoz do guitars on godless savage garden and spiritual black dimensions. The albums before that is shagrath and silenoz on guitars. Silenoz did vocals on first album (maybe first 2?) before shagrath did vocals. Also, if you like spiritual black dimensions, check out carpe tenebrum - mirror hate painting. Astennu's solo project, similar style as spiritual black dimensions.

@@Morphotrocity Galder joined After spiritual black dimensions. Spiritual black dimensions has Astennu on lead guitar, Silenoz on rhythm guitar.

+jamdwhi thats the beauty of the music imo, music is so tasteful as a whole all together if you could always hear every single instruments it would get boring really fast i think.

Yan Jod True. Every listen can be a different experience.

Yep

These parts are almost all audible .buy a decent headphone lol

+jamdwhi Very true

+Pekka Kaukalo money is too good in dimmu, even though omc music is way better. That;s life? :< *edit: and lets not pretend nicholas isnt a big component to these bands sounding badass.

+Pekka Kaukalo aww man i know right, omc is sooo good i like it better than dimmu actually.

Fuck yeah, I'll always like OMC more than demo Boerger

Midgard Land same same

Galder is working on new material for OMC now

😂

Gru!!

TRUE HAHAHAHAHA

😂

I did a Stormblåst cover with my classical. Everybody on the internet loves it.

D standard is one step down though

When they said 2 steps down I was thinking C then they said D :\

You're right

Two (half) steps down is what they had in mind

yeah vortex was fucking amazing!

yes they is

​@@dr.bimbambulahaha

in gain?

Well, "as Hell", I don't know. They are rich compared to other metal artists, but not really compared to any pop artists or corporate CEOs or high level workers.

I noticed that too. It sounds awesome when they both play because you have the two totally different tones, Galder being higher and more hollow.

I think it's Silenoz who writes more or less all material for Dimmu Borgir. Galder probably puts his own touch on the riffs though.

@@Potatismjolner : That's true.

@@Potatismjolner its shagrath and silenoz

You're god damn right!🤘

Midgard Land see. that comment is bollocks. Galder is more than capable than playing like astennu.

No he's not. Not even close, in fact. In order to solo (Astennu) rather than play leads (Galder), one generally has to grasp the concept of scales and be able to identify the notes all over the fretboard. Based just on this "lesson" alone, Galder seems to struggle with knowing what key he is even playing in. Galder is the type of guitarist who writes music that sounds cool to him but he doesn't know why. He has a good ear, but actually has very little musical knowledge. Galder can't hold Astennu's jock.

Astennu was most definitely a better guitar player than Galder. I still think the Spiritual Black Dimensions lineup was their best lineup (even though I do not think that is their best album, that lineup had the most talent and their apex remains unrealized) after all the years and all their evolution. But that is not to Galder is devoid of talent or even severely lacking in talent. He obviously has a lot of talent. It is not always praising one to slight the other.

@TorHawk Sorgens Kammer Del 2 is Shagrath and Silenoz playing, Shagrath is a better guitar player than Silenoz, that's why that re-recording shines riff-wise. Metal Heart was covered in the 90's and I believe Astennu was the second guitarrist but not 100% sure on that. All the others have Galder in them.

Blaine Baptiste i know right?

DGCFAd, is it? every string 2 semitones lower than standard

North 67 you mean tuning?

yes

They say it in the video...

D

Tryambakam108 its possible lol. but he's a badass though.

He prolly is ha

6???
