ICS Vortex from Dimmu Borgir tells us a nice story

[rsman169]

The only one current member of Dimmu I do not dislike is Galder. He's true to his own music at the least.

[fetidness]

@rsman169

All we can do is hope he realizes that Dimmu is headed for the commercial sector, leave them and try to recruit full time musicians for OMC.

[metalmonkey97]

Did anyone else hear the animal growl and the rap music????

[Bootes1980]

pffff dude, you're THE VOICE of Arcturus, go back to Arcturus!

[RobsoonQ]

Vortex wasn't kicked he leaved band...

[Junkiemaxxx]

[FurballOfNorway]

[TheTruth3977]

[rodpantera]

[TheSupremeplayer]

Vortex,Mustis and Nick barker should start a band together!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kimdiego]

Oh man why did I watch that clip??? King Vortex.. A "nerdy wow player"...

[LouTheMetalhead]

What a Hero

[shagrathdemon13]

y cant u believe VORTEX is fired he is because of DIMMU for wat he is known today..!!

if someone can make it can also break it.......!!!!

dats wat it is said be the broken or the breaker..............!!!!!!!!

[iskim86]

Vortex da low rider

[StonexxDemonmaggot]

He sounds like a Viking!!!!! YEAH!!!! Dimmu made a big mistake for letting vortex go....what are they gonna do in live concerts????? No more sacrilgious scorn,progenis of the great apocalypse,burn in hell,and the rest that he did!!!!! Dimmu is screwed

[FallenSkorm]

wtf ? have you guys ever heard mustis talk ?

[Trainfucker]

@FallenSkorm He talks on this DVD, in fact. About his orchestration work in the studio.

[FallenSkorm]

@Trainfucker yeah i saw that .. i was like o.o

[FallenSkorm]

protection for long hair ? lmfao..

[FallenSkorm]

i hear a dinosaur is the background >.>

[dimmuftw69]

Fagrath is a complete dumbass for firing them.

[dimmuftw69]

Is it just me or was Mustis and Vortex always hanging out with each other?

[DamageInc0rparat3d]

They see me riding my automobile, they're prejudiced.

[dimmuftw69]

0:44 What did he say? lol

[DramaticMoments]

I love ICS Vortex. I'll miss him. -3

[gunguy009]

they look better without corpse paint in my opinion

[firebird116]

i had my axe!

[tyrulvsson]

he is really cool n shit. i really apreciate what he ahs done for metal n stuff coz hes just awesome. one day when i got enough cash n shit i will be getting his signature bass n stuff

[GRIMandFROSTBITTEN9]

Arcturus is the shit! i hope vortex focuses on that band with all his energies... mustis can go rot in a cave for all i care. he's good but too quiet

[Ikkiku]

I hope they start a new project together.

I don't care much for Arcturus.

[sgtzero1337]

Vortex seems like the most jolly guy on the planet XDDDD

[HateCrewDeathMartyr]

@sgtzero1337 True, but you haven't seen an interview with Abbath have you haha

[sgtzero1337]

@HateCrewDeathMartyr I have hahaha he's really jolly too x)))

[HateCrewDeathMartyr]

@sgtzero1337 haha, I don't know what's up with these brutal black metalers being so happy. Not very grim

[Lootnscoot]

Why did they kick him?

[djeikop]

Haha, Vortex seems soo funny....Its a shame DB kicked him

[MrSilentDoubleA]

KURVER and shit :)

[Haddockxyz300]

Somhow he seems a normall guy,and its true,without him,dimmu would be nothing.and man his bass is cool!i wonder wy he's wearing a nazi "Werhmacht" outfit?!

[ultramarinemat]

fired for musical differences. In other words, trying to push dimmu back to how it used to be?

[DarkVampyrLady]

Ouh...without Vortex' voice, dimmu sucks .__. his sory is reeally nice :) and his bike is really...sexy! xDD

[vcsniper556]

Enthrone Darkness Triumphant is dimmu's highest rated album and it didnt have vortex at all.

[PathOfTheWolf]

Dimmu wont be the same without Vortex!!!!!! =( !

[Victorinox667]

It's a damn shame that he got fired. That band's just gone down a bad path. Honestly, Death Cult Armageddon was the last good bit of music they ever put out. PEM was better, but DCA was survivable. In Sorte Diaboli was just inexcusable, though.

[hellonieman]

tall ass motherfucker

[metalmexicanmosh]

Haha, his favorite word is "shit". It sucks he was fired from Dimmu, to me he was the best element.

[AndyPilgrim90]

@metalmexicanmosh i thought he quit... i didnt think he was fired... hmmmm... that sucks even MORE

[metalmexicanmosh]

No, him and Mustis were fired. Yeah it does suck Way more

[DAEDREKWARRIOR]

i know i dont understand, y not fire the guitarist, i forget his name but to me, mustis and vortex where the best

[IronreaverVII]

Well, supposedly, Vortex kept getting drunk and smashing bottles on his head at shows, and Mustis supposedly forgot his keyboards to 4 concerts, but they should've still stayed in the band. Vortex said about the incident "I can remember when Dimmu was about the music, before the greed set in. I do, however, plan to bring back an old band, or three."

Also, they shouldn't fire Galder (guitarist) because he is a great addition to the band, although not as good as Vortex and Mustis.

[LesnarNextBigThingF5]

Ironreaver is right but also most of these people are retarded, vortex hardly ever showed up at practice and mustis didnt bring his equipment at practice most of the time

[LesnarNextBigThingF5]

he was kicked for screwing around

[Haddockxyz300]

@LesnarNextBigThingF5

Wath,his not in the band anymore?

[Zumwaloro]

No he and Mustis were fired :(

[Haddockxyz300]

arrg Tabarnak de calice...!!!!!

(In english):Arrg fucking shit!

[Zumwaloro]

Read the statement that Birgir posted on their official forum. I understand their reasons, but still I'm sad that they are fired... =(

[Haddockxyz300]

@Zumwaloro

Do you reallise this is gonna make a lot of trouble in live!

[Zumwaloro]

Well, maybe not. Mustis can be replaced easly. Even if he's a great musician, there are many talented musicians for the keys part. Vortex is the bigger problem. His vocals where so great, but as they claimed on their forum: noone is irreplaceable. I love his vocals, but if it is true (and I guess it is) what Vortex and Mustis did, I understand they were fired. But it is sad anyway.

[Haddockxyz300]

Im talking about vortex voice,

[FallenSkorm]

@Zumwaloro lies from shagrath. If you have been listening to dimmu as long as i have then you would see that they went through so many members. Gets you thinking...

[Blackshmuel]

that´s pritty cool - good story.

Fuck - I´d love to tour together with dimmu

[pauleleco]

im surprised he has an amazing voice and he smokes

[theothercrazo]

Shit, Vortex could replace Xzibit on Pimp My Ride any day.

[moofyforever]

hahahaha pimped up bike

[IamUberStein]

I wish he would get back in Borknagar.

[Skoojoo]

amazing... after all the corpsepaint and rumored satanism, here is vortex talking about his bad ass bike with baskets and bells... i love it

[Drakkar6]

pimp mah bike with ICS Vortex

[KapaH8sU]

you people are children.. so vortex and mustis got kicked.., i got a shock of it too... but.. life goes on, i still like Dimmu for what it is, and i always support it..

[thecookchef]

now..............they're out

[Theblackmetalist]

Vortex and Mustis Gone Dimmu Borgir will never be the same again nor will the music hopefully the new album isent shit

[RuneGERPlayer]

Pff. They started 1999 to be not the same Dimmu Borgir.

[FinlandsThunder]

I dunno... I didn't really see an explanation on their site, but a few friends of mine are saying it's cuz they were lazy... I dunno tho...

[dankrom]

Vortex signed a copy of In Sorte Diaboli, and tried to sell it on ebay, Mustis kept forgetting to bring his own instrument to their gigs, and one of them got smashed and knocked himself out with the bottle like right before they were supposed to perform. So sad they made these decisions, but it was there fault:( I HATE to admit it but the decision was necessary, Dimmu could still be good, but they won't be the same:(

[JakobHarquail666]

Please let Vortex and Mustis come back.. fucking FUCK FUCK FUCK PLEASE

[MParseface38]

someone should also credit him for his INCREDIBLE work with arcturus!

[FinlandsThunder]

Can't believe mustis and ICS vortex got fired... shagrath can suck a dick

[Dreadedshado]

Yeah I fuckon agree! Dimmu Borgir fuckon sucks gothic dick now.

Fuckon posers.

[jonathanmellqvist2]

@FinlandsThunder WHAT!!!??? MUSTIS GOT KICKED TOO???!!!! I THOUGHT JUST VORTEX WAS...

[FinlandsThunder]

@jonathanmellqvist2 yeah mustis as well ;_; hopefully these rumors of an arcturus reunion are true ._.

[thispagesux]

@FinlandsThunder i think that decision was down to sillinoz

[laganio]

@FinlandsThunder They didnt kick him, he was living too far away from the rest of the band members so the distance was affecting him, so they decided as a pair that he should leave

[FinlandsThunder]

@laganio really? did not know that... well thanks for the info that makes me less angry >__>

[Wigtilo]

@FinlandsThunder vortex didnt get fired, he left because he wanted to make his own stuff

[Omer961]

@FinlandsThunder Yeah he can suck fans dicks too ...

[Idiotcorrector]

@FinlandsThunder - couldnt agree more + same with nick barker... The bands cultural differences get in the way so much, which sorry to say, are lead by shagrath and silenoz.

[riegrieg]

@FinlandsThunder it is not Shagrath! it is Silenoz!

[arkonastriborg123]

@FinlandsThunder why did he fire them?

[dontreadreplys]

VORTEX RULES.

[JonolanFairchild]

[xarealpersonx]

[warlockonfyr]

[oshyria]

[Crackerkiller5]

damn,i wish i had his ride

[Martronical]

OMG- I can tell just how cruel and evil this man is from this! RUN! HIDE your families, lawd hep us! lol..he seems like just about the coolest guy you'd ever want to meet. I can't get over how great this guy is, reminds me of Chris Squire of Yes, back in the day...(and still.).. The "controversy" amongst the blk metal community over Dimmu Borgir and Vortex's "Sell Out"...is laughable...this guy is great in ANY genre. And Great music, is just that.

[Beecels]

hes fucking awesome. did you see his sick ride?! that bike was epic with the basket lol

[lucifermagnetic666]

This guy is fucking good!But he's totaly different!And not because of the make-up!

[alegoschou]

Haha, love it.

Ics Vortex should have been an gangster with that pimped ud ride. xD

[munoxxx]

is that mustis smoking with him?

[Luketheedge]

Yes it is!

[munoxxx]

thanks.

shagrath, mustis and vortex...well, maybe the whole band smokes xD

[Phergan]

Silenoz also smokes. xP

[munoxxx]

so, imagine them in a room talking about music and smoking...it would look like a industry xD

[Synthesis666]

galder doesn't smoke i think :)

[MetallicGod07]

whats kurrrrvvurrr? :)

haha this guys is cool! :D

[thegodofthegods2]

he talks norwegian. kurver is things that are curved. thinks hes talking of the basket in the front

[MetallicGod07]

[elkdf20]

lol you gotta love this guy =]]

[Zakejo]

That bike looks so hobo :-D

[munoxxx]

yeah...he must have money to buy a nice car, huh?

LOL

[Pheebbl]

"and like my gladiator boots and shit" : D

[ReidHenderson]

Apparentley smoking doesnt affect people singing as much as they say.. Because alot of really good singers smoke and still have wonderful voices.. I guess as long as you keep it excercised it will stay strong.. I dont know but im sure when he is old it will get rougher..

[Barqun]

protection for long hair stuff.. very metal.. lmfao..

[Bodomisti95]

that's a real metal man's ride \,,/ i myself have atleast 40 yrs old bike :P
