[GreenDayRoxer1]

[alfredorss]

[MAGNUM2F]

probably my fave magnum song ever, the hairs stood up on the back of my neck when the keyboard intro begun....

[tomiettinen]

This shit makes me cry...,

[MsCmj727]

wow!...just fookin wow is all I can say........beautiful !...thank you

[happyburial]

4 people failed miserbly by disliking this

[jisaw80]

Besides anything, Britain should be hailed for having such great musicians like Magnum and other tons of great bands.

I must say that Dimmu Borgir must eat Abbath's feces and behave their cunt behavior. Norwegian Charlatans.

[mokora]

they are all so old......

[toonman009]

@mokora Do you think it has something to do with playing superb melodic rock like this for over 30 years now.

[metaknowledge2010]

@mokora - immaterial dude! their music is tops!

[RSJMF2]

@mokora What and that stops them from being good? Just because something is old doesn't mean that it is rubbish - I dunno I might of misinterpreted that.

MAGNUM!

[TartanBear]

I am lost in the real world. Love it, thanks Tony, Bob and the lads this album is only eclisped by the Eleventh Hour in my opinion!

[93bass]

Can people please stop talk about Dimmu Borghir in a Magnum video!

Anyway, fucking great song and performance!

[darkkon21]

what a band! what a great fucking band!!!! not just musicians, but magicians,,!!!

[Drud14]

I have the same guitar!

[stormbum]

This music is so beautiful, perfect to my ears.

[CChallinor]

Dimmu Borgir were not formed until 1993 a whole 11 years after this was released !!!! they plain and simple riped it off.....Magnum are 100% awsome, dudes check out their back cataloge its a treasure chest of great tracks that if you love rock you can't afford to miss, no mater how old you are its timeless...

[nobostrope]

Spitze!!!!!!

Magnum war eine meiner Lieblingsgruppen, als ich mit dem Gitarrespielen anfing.

Danke!!!!!!!!

[MetalheadAssassin]

a great song from a really unique band...

[bazaray]

Dimmu Borgir ripped the intro off which was originally written by Tony Clarkin not Dimmu Borgir.

[tennetslager]

@bazaray Just for the record i think you will find Mark Stanway`s (keyboard player) wife actually wrote the keyboard intro believe it or not... you can google it. Still it doesnt matter this is a superb musical performance by a truly talented set of musicians.

[amaister93]

somehow this is better than Dimmu's stolen version. xD

I love Dimmu Borgir, but...common xD

[KSRGUYW]

keyboard is just midi'd up,not that special really,just a way of playing 3 keyboards through the one

[beaumino]

I like it.  It is better than Dimmu's version. But nobody will ever be as good as Dimmu was on Sotmblast and For All Tid (not even Dimmu)

[kingsoldierface]

newb..

[beaumino]

@beaumino Stormblast* oops

[gykoftl]

they truly do get in ur soul

[Pilatorparn]

Magnum are in their own league, no other band have the same sound. If you have been to a concert you know..... Magnum gets into your soul...

[KarlFrederick19]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh they sound a little different but enough to call it plagiarism

i love Dimmu, but WTF STIAN!?

[paulsen39]

is it begin 'aly lys er svunnet hen' sounds from dimmu borgir's song??=)

[happyburial]

great!

much better then the crappy dimmu version

[lakaklas]

dimmu sucks this rocks

[lakaklas]

no way

[IamUberStein]

Dimmu Borgir will eat their english souls!

[SeoDragon117]

You sir are not worthy of listening to Magnum. =P

[IamUberStein]

They're great musicians, only a fool would deny that. They've written some great songs as well. That part about Dimmu Borgir eating their English souls, that was just a bit of theatre on my part. Sorry

[SeoDragon117]

I was only joking, as you were :P See the "=P" face at the end?

[1061sarahs]

you sir, need serious psychiatric help...

[lakaklas]

ace song i did listen to this long time ago

[e1egyiceh0use]

My Best favourite song in the World!

[PoisonLaurel]

well mustis wasnt the keyboardist at that time...stian aarstad was

[Knurlheim666]

wenisimo

[greatleahart]

que buen tema por dios!! excelente benda excelentes musicos ,!!! NOBLE HARD ROCK como megusta a mi!!!! NOBLEZA MUSICAL, ESTO ES SER NOBLE AL ROCK MELODICO, AL ROCK, A LA MUSICA , A LA VIDA GRACIAS POR TU MUSICA MAGNUM GRACIAS!

[sakuraharuno9999]

fantastic intro classic magnum cant wait till 31 oct at the civic center wolve rock on

[poinsy]

This is a MAGNUM thread about a MAGNUM song you morons. If you want to talk about another band, then please go and do it on another thread.

Unless of course, you have something constructive to say about the band or the song.

Anyway, as someone lucky enough to see this band several times in the eighties, this is great memorabilia, Bob & Tony still rock.

[TheEddyMetal]

@poinsy Or you can suck my tiny dick. There's nothing wrong with comparing bands. If you don't like what's in the comment section don't look.

[poinsy]

@TheEddyMetal Too articulate for me :)

[TheEddyMetal]

@poinsy I didn't feel the need to be articulate. My point was evident and sensible. I find it funny how you mock my diction, yet can't contest the content.

[Rezomn666]

its an older kerry king!! ahahahhahaha

[lakaklas]

lots of dimmu comments rofl still Magnum rules should be like this still and not just all the new shit ....

[xisumavoid]

mustis on SBD is epic

[TheRockin88]

Its a Shame. A "so-called" Satanic Black Metal band, ripping-off a christian song.

On The STORMBLAST album-cover (I agree its an Opus from 96) we can see the BITCH from Gehenna and not Stian, appearing to be in Keyboards.

[LASTINLIVE]

Bob sings well with tony playing riffs so great.

[Diofan1952]

Thanks for sending LASTINLIVE, this is a wonderful song /,,/ /,,/ ;)

[LASTINLIVE]

marks keyboards sound great here.

[sithlord1012]

korg more like borg

[gigstar77]

Oh ive got bloody goose bumps, keep it up guys, you do it for me!! see you at the front : )

[metallicadannie]

stop saying dimmu ripped this man, it sounds VERY fuckin simaler but it aint exact. how many people is there that make guitar riffs tht sound the same as other bands? there is MANY

[117CrazyJay]

ok just to clear things up, Dimmu didnt rip nething, there old keyboardest stole this material without the rest of the band knowing,he also stole the intro to the game Agony which is the song Sorgens Kammer from the original Stormblast. I love Dimmu but these songs were stolen by the original keyboardest. Thats y on the remastered version of Stormblast Alt Lys Er Svunnet Hen doesnt have the piano intro and Sorgens Kammer is now Sorgens Kammer Del II a whole new/different song.

[117CrazyJay]

But yeah, it was the keyboardest fault, not the bands. They had no clue and that is why they made sure to get rid of the copyrighted material stolen form the original keyboardest. On a good note Mustis is a way better keyboardest anyway then their old one =] \m/ Hails

[Whackooyzero]

Mustis better then Stian? I beg to differ. I don't support the ripping off but look at his original stuff why don't you.

[117CrazyJay]

well either way, i've lost complete respect for the guy, but in my personal opinion i believe that Mustis is way better. Just my opinion, if you think Stian is better then that's your opinion. I just think Mustis is better.

[Elkaszh]

Actually, the only, or one of the few keyboard riffs Stian Aarstad made for Dimmu is the intro to Mourning Palace. Shagrath composed the rest. He still does some keyboard stuff even though Mustis makes most of it.

[Solerian]

Yeah.. Mustis is a pure genius ;)

[MrJesus666]

haha and now mustis has been fired from dimmu...

[pschierhorn]

Dimmu Borgir's old keyboarder was a bastard...

[Zoetepasweiden]

This must be the "long version" of this song. Excellent, 5 stars!

[AceroySangre]

Real Hard-Rock/HeavyNWOHBM. They had to be from the 70s and 80s. Fuck the 90s! Death to Alternative-Grunge Rock and Glam Which Killed Our Music!

[webbtje]

Uh, shame about all the great death, thrash and black metal that came out of the 90s then.

[gatesoftanhauser]

Reminds me alot of Pink Floyd. Some good stuff here!

[baboracus5]

hmm, I must say my respect for Dimmu Borgir has decreased slightly. They're still a great band and it looks like they completely ripped off another awesome band!

[Poxs2010]

The thing is though, the rest of the members didn't know that Stian plagiarized the keyboard parts of two different songs. To my knowlege, Stormblast was released in 1996 and the rest of the band did not find out until 2004 when they were informed, and Stian was long gone. That is why both Stian's keyboard parts in "Alt lys er svunnet hen" and "Sorgens Kammer" were either removed or altered in Stormblast MMV.

[demoaxas]

dimmu dimmu dimmu hail stian aarstad it took them 8 years to figure it out hahaha

[andrachb]

Love this song and magnum are great. Have to say though that Mark Stanway looks like the evil emperor off star wars!

[dazoffirefly]

Right lets get one thing straight this song is a magnum song and yes i have realized that dimmu ripped it off but realy im a magnum fan so i dont realy give a shit if they did rip it off because realy i only care for the band that created this fab piece first not the lame rip offs, thats my opinion so can we just have magnum fans on here thanks, and no im not an old fan of magnum im only 17.

[Gaffelglim]

Oldies FTW! They still rock after so many years, the music is breath-taking.

[zombiehorde99]

the keyboardist is a beast. but really fat

[sweeetyg]

lol all the comments are about dimmu borgir not magnum

[sweeetyg]

lol dimmu borgir stole this in there song Atl lys er svunnet hen lolzzer

[DPboy20]

Stian is working as sound engineer now. My brother is a friend of him, seriously. He played in a band named Enthral a few years ago, but he is more into classical music and classic rock than Black Metal really.

[timma00004]

does he ever talk about dimmu

[Skalpelexix]

yea he ever talk about dimmu?

[grzybiarz]

Guitarist like a Kerry King (Slayer :) )

[winterspawn]

dimmu still rules you fucks

[ian2470147]

Dimmu Borgir were, are , and always will be a fucking disgrace to Black Metal.

[Anonyomus]

Don't say! :) Enthrone Darkness Triumphant album is great album and it's melodic BM :P

[thekingdomofthedead]

agreed enthrone darkness triumphant was one of the best albums i have ever brought

[thekingdomofthedead]

to ian2470147

wow.......your not an asshole elitist at all.

i liked dimmu borgirs "rip off" of this

it sounded better imo

it sucks that stian didnt write them himself

[ian2470147]

To thekingdomofthedead

Wow you're not hiding behind pathetic accusations to compensate for your lack of an argument with any actual base at all.

Dimmu Borgir have always been shit, and no amount of your name-calling can change that.

[Draconair]

To ian2470147

To each its own, you might not like Dimmu Borgir but others do, so shut the fuck up. And for your info, Dimmu Borgir's music isn't easy to play and they're one of the few bands out there which can perform as well live and at studio, you have no rights to rate them shit, unless you have a band that can play just as well as them.

And thekingdomofthedead was probably just stating his own opinion about how he felt about the album.

Go cry in your corner fag.

[tenaciousdope]

ur a fuking disgrace to ur mum's flange. the poor woman had to pop you out of it, and looks how it turned out! Dimmu Borgir aren't even true black metal. they're unique.

[TwistedBeats615]

probably the most bad looking but talented keyboardist =D

[SirSIither]

Hehe, yeah! ^^

[SeoDragon]

Lol yeah.

[kfz]

hahaha wow so they did well besides that little error. stormblast is still a good cd.

[dazoffirefly]

have u heared the song by a group called dummu borgir they have ripped this song off so badly.

[InfernalPurge]

Their former keyboarder stole more than just this. That by the way has been twelve years ago now. He's kicked out now.

[Kelavmeister]

thats basically all he ever "wrote" was those 2 things, Shagrath wrote all the other piano riffs. And i was wondering why they took the piano intro off the new Stormblast MMV... now i know!

[InfernalPurge]

The only thing Stian Aarstad actually DID write for Dimmu Borgir was the Mourning Palace intro. Glad he didn't steal lots more than this intro and the melody of the computer game Agony, and glad Stian Aarstad has no band now.

[Kelavmeister]

But his top hat kicks ass! Even tho Shagrath is seen wearing it in the For All Tid pictures as well?

[InfernalPurge]

The Stormblåst 1996 pictures :-P

[Kelavmeister]

oh rly? ill check that out

[SirSIither]

Yeah, great intro and great keyboard player.

[SeoDragon]

Absolutely Amazing, I love this song, I really wish someone would post a piano/keyboard cover of this song on youtube so I can learn it, having a real tough time on my own.

[HumptyKing]

Wonderful keyboard player. Mark Stanway is spectacular.
