DIMMU BORGIR – DEATH CULT ARMAGEDDON (NUCLEAR BLAST RECORDS)
One of my favorite albums of last year, DCA is the album that will finally thrust Dimmu Borgir into the Metal premiership, and I can think of none who deserve it more than these Black Metal Norwegians. In the year where Metallica literally shocked the metal world with their non-effort ‘St. Anger’, Dimmu Borgir left the rest of the pack behind with this superb, creatively-dripping album of atmospheric, almost cinematic musical epics.
‘Allegiance’, ‘Lepers Among Us’, ‘For the World to Dictate our Death’, ‘Progenies of the Great Apocalypse’, Dimmu Borgir have crafted tunes to accompany the Four Horsemen as they blaze cross the Northern sky. And building on their orchestral partnership (this time using a 46 piece orchestra!) they have taken Black Metal into realms undreamed of back in 1983.
And for that they are to be applauded.
