@mitchell0406 True, I do like most of Dimmu's stuff, just not too happy with their treatment of Vortex and Mustis. Favorite albums were SBD and PEM, though their albums before those were nice too.
Hey where are all you people commenting on this video? I agree that these guys are fuckin killer but I don't know anybody else that's heard of them besides people that I tell....Most likely because I live in Michigan, USA... Vortex is one of my favorite singers and I'm always drawn back to Arcturus...
It is completely unique and to me compelling... I'm also a big fan of Hellhammer, his playing compliments the rest of the band, no matter what band he's playing in.....
Don't you just love avant-garde? It reveals the deepest corners of your twisted soul. :) And Vortex brings it out and presents it perfectly with his voice.
As much as I LOVE Arcturus,the scene is just too small for all those people.And bringing all those people in costumes on scene reminds me of this asian role play band mix speakers inc.Anyway,Im wishing for a brand new album!
@Jugolbrazowy Fuck yeah Vortex rules, I love Simen and his clean vocals in Dimmu are the best. I really dont think hes trying to imitate Garm, I think Vortex has pride in himself and wont bother to imitate his vocals.
Hail Arcturus!! They are back in 2011 and I will cross my fingers (all of them) and hope they come to Portugal !!! Great song, with a messy visual presentation. The stage should had a better scenario with torches, better lighting and some fog. Anyway I like the show!
esta banda es la unica en darse lujos como esos en un escenario... no es de pogo, ni de uyy la puteriaa... es de prestarle atencion a VERDADEROS MUSICOS .....
Das ist eine der genialsten Songs denen ich jeh lauschen durfte. Schade das Arcturus so unkonventionell sind und nicht mehr Erfolg haben, ich ich würde es ihnen gönnen!
@DragonFlameZ2012 He grows on you. Most ppl listen to it once and go WTF?!.. but the more you listen to it the more he draws you in with his vocals :)
Is there a more eccentric band than this?. :-) And I want a baloon! I know Vortex is going back to Lamented souls. But would like him to come back to Arcturus as well.
if only i could have seen this live... vortex's voice is one of the absolute most impresive... and this stage show is not only a representation of his humor, but a representation of his perception of the song, which is alarmingly accurate. a certain fungus and la masquerade infernale allowed me to reach uncharted scapes of my ego, if you know what im sayin.
@Vertigopills LOL are you serious?? Ahahah! AWAIT THE COMING STOOOORM! BEHOLD THE SIGN IN THE SUUUN! ...Mind tricks don't work on me. Only money. No money, no parts, no deal! LOLOLO
I see some guys here were complainig about Vortex and Garm. Well, I just would like to remind everyone who is against Vortex about the fact that HE was the vocalist in the studio version of "The Chaos Path", even though the rest of the LMI album was sung by Garm. So don't say that the original studio version with Garm was better, 'cause this is the original one!!!
@mjeees I thought Garm did the vocals on the whole LMI album except on The Chaos Path (where actually Vortex was was the singer). Anyway, you may be right...
@MetalPite Well, I think Vortex does the backing vocals on Painting my Horror and Master of Disguise. And as you said he's doing the lead vocals on Chaos Path with Garm doing the backing vocals. (But I'm not sure)
Is anybody there available to make some Norwegian-English translation?, sometimes we need that when Vortex speaks in his mother tongue. This a great concert!
Thanks much, like you can see we have tv visiting tonight - we'll continue in a while.. masquerade? MASCUERADE ANYONE? Thats it - then he says after the gig nettop thats like thats that..
@bettinsMETAL from vortex myspace : "AND FOR THOSE WONDERING ABOUT THE REVIVAL OF ARCTURUS I WAS TOLD BY AN ALIEN THAT 2011 IS A LUCKY NUMBER"!!!!!!!!
so, if hellhammer played with, for example,fifty bands and each of them published at least three albums with an average of eight songs....how many songs is he able to remember!!!???
Awesome band and an awesome performance, but why the hell do they feel the need to put stupid shit all over the camera screen and cover up the video? Usually people like to watch videos of concerts so they can... you know... see the concert.
arcturus is a whole idea, avant garde is a whole idea, not just the music, the music by itself is amazing, but there is a lot more to it... and if you mean the freaking special effects added to the video... yeah youre right too much hahahaha
