Dissection - The Somberlain Live Wacken (High Quality)

[metalmilitiabass]

7 ....why? retarders

[rortizarq]

>:(

[Black616Flesh]

This band is a legend, seriously.

[Hitchhikeroftheyear]

The Somberlain is probably their most known album and it's my second favorite Dissection album.My personal favorite album by these guys is Storm of the light's bane.And i also love Reinkaos even if a lot of people dislike it...i really don't know why,it's a masterpiece aswell. \m/

[SangreDivino]

how can you complain about quality...this song is awsome..and the performence is impecable. fuck if i heard a better song =)) maybe where dead angels lie from live legagy, and i`m not a dissection fan. i don`t like theyr studio stuff but live they fucking rock best band ever!

[diehardusa]

it's the first time when I see Jon with long hair :)

Jon has been the legend of metal music

[SatakJoan]

I think Dissection has been and always will be one of the best bands in Metal. Jon Nödtveidt leader of the band screwed up committing suicide because he could have lived many more years, and just get more great albums than pulled while with Dissection. He misses you Jon!!!

[DashboardDevil]

Awesome performance! 

[QuetzalUlisesOrion]

PURE DARK GOLD



[gunsncrocker]

take notes kids! this is how metal should be done!!

[Osman35112]

the best man in the history of metal

How I miss Jon Andreas Nödtveidt!

[doommetalforever]

RES IN PEACE. THE BEST BLACK METAL BAND FOREVER LONG LIVE TO DISSECTION!!!

[Empalaniumband]

Big Jon Nödtveidt Thanks for all your music thanks for your legacy that I hope will never die Hail Dissection

[lordhoule83]

I was going to hit the like button, but realized that there were exactly 666 likes. XD

This song is so awesomely evil. Hail Dissection!

[blackseedsofvengance]

wow, way before it was cool to play at wacken!

[TheWolvesCurse]

The Bass player is jons younger brother Emil, better known as Nighmare Industries from Deathstars.

[alexmortland]

This performance took place on August 8th, 1997. The murder that Jon Nödtveidt was convicted of took place on July 22nd, and he was arrested on December 18th. Think of that.

[nonbody]

This fucking kick ass! I love this song.

[manipulatingdestiny]

its the dawn decending I! am the somberlain!

[VincentVega2010]

to comment you should have been live there!!!! I was!!!

[PortalJummper]

immaculate drumming & what a band man!!

[tyree876]

Dislike and you die



[mrkdui]

@tyree876 I disliked. Are you crying there now? why do you give a fuck anyway?

[tyree876]

@mrkdui Yeah dude I'm in tears :'(

[aldoalberto]

wow!!! he is a god!!

[TeppichPilot]

This is a damn epic song in comparison to what is played nowadays at wacken.... RIP Jon

[AnthemsToTheWelkin]

I worship Christ, but i also worship Dissection, Fucking EXCELLENT music!

[RICARDEATH]

DEATH RELEASEMENT FEELS SO NEAR THAT ONE CAN TOUCH ITS BREATH

[Mrmder]

Just....perfect. Jon was a fucking genius.

[yeddojr]

amazing song but shit video quality...there are other video one billion times better...

[exile166]

Fuckin' epic performance.

The moment he screams "Carry me, Through the GATESSSS!!!" I want to stand up and fist pump.

[paintboy9]

@exile166 fist pump and you die 

[JBUK1987]

The live legacy recording is so much better than the one on the somberlain

[MOISEX66]

the big boss!!!!

[Cenobitum]

REIGN CHAOS JOHN

[xCh1eFx]

his voice was so great, best metal voice for me

[dayidify]

@xCh1eFx He has a good full sound indeed! I hate those shrieking vocals. But if you would ask me (not same genre though) I'd go for Mikael Akerfeldt from Bloodbath/Opeth. Especially in Bloodbath. He grunts and you can actually understand him ;-)

Anyways... Great band this! RIC

[TombViolator]

Lord of Infernal, Gather my Strength

Carry me through the gates !!!

[nykretus]

long live to the rest of the band 

[dowhatthouwiltful]

Best Swedish BM band after Bathory!

[doomscneider]

Dissection Rules \m/

[keepitacrime]

holyyy fuckk that is some evilll epic fuckin blackkk metalll

[FreezingMo0n]

His voice live..is just fucking amazing \m/

[phoquelemonde]

riffs are so fucking perfect, but I don't know why, I want juste say on this video I love the voice so plaining x)

[nesronesro]

this is black metal!

[theaxed]

how is this high quality... its in 240p. not only is that low quality, its the lowest.

[Murderdoll66624]

@theaxed but it's much better than the original video of this performance on youtube

[Cannibalcorpse55]

@theaxed Well they cant get it higher than that on such an old tape. So its high quality for its age.

[theaxed]

@Cannibalcorpse55 the source seems to be decent. i think the uploader just didnt do it right. it should at least go up to 420p so we can get stereo sound. im pretty sure this thing wasnt recorded in mono. i was complaining about the youtube video quality, not the source quality.

[Cannibalcorpse55]

@theaxed Its an old video though, so it's pretty hard to improve the video quality.

[Cannibalcorpse55]

@theaxed Doesnt really matter anyway dude, its all about the music \m/

[theaxed]

@Cannibalcorpse55 ...why not hear it properly then? maybe you have shitty speakers so it doesnt matter, but i dont.

[Cannibalcorpse55]

@theaxed Why are you commenting this to me? I never complained about the sound quality.

[mouloudo]

@theaxed I think the quality was about the sound XD

[theaxed]

@mouloudo i dont think any responders to my quality complaint know what they're talking about. youtube's quality setting affects both the audio AND the video of the clip. at the 240p setting you get 1-2 ch. audio @ 22050Hz (22k). To put that simply... it is utter shit for purposes of listening to music. 360 & 480 have stereo audio @ a sample rate of 44100Hz (44k) on top of a higher video bitrate.

Now that you've all been informed, you should never settle for any video @ 240p. DEMAND BETTER!

[2ndSicness]

@theaxed Even at 240p the sound is great.

[xCh1eFx]

@theaxed for 1997 it is high quality xd

[mreddieg]

@theaxed it's high quality from VHS. I'm sure this looked way worse before remastering it.

[Hellraiserzzz]

@theaxed used to be HQ before the douche uploaded it

[Arfy6669]

@theaxed its the sound quality that's being referred to!

[theaxed]

@Arfy6669 At the 240p setting you get 1-2 ch. audio @ 22050Hz (22k). To put that simply... it is utter shit for purposes of listening to music. 360 & 480 have stereo audio @ a sample rate of 44100Hz (44k) on top of a higher video bitrate.

[Wolfsblood6]

@theaxed being that the video was shot in 1997....idiot.

[theaxed]

@Wolfsblood6 i can assure you that the vhs original sounds better than this youtube version. partly because youtube ultimately has relatively low quality audio in even their 1080p videos, but more so because the uploader's original source sucked or they had no idea what they were doing when ripping the vhs and uploading to youtube.

[Wolfsblood6]

@theaxed your a boner

[50V1371C0]

He shaved his hair because he was in jail. He grew muscles because he was in jail. Man gotta be tough in there, I guess.

[ROCKKERFAT]

JUST PERFECT!!!

[kotic917]

Really Dark & Melodic!



[kotic917]

Really Dark & Melodic!

[matteous]

Fucking incredible !!!

[IMBACHABRI]

black metal hurrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[NegativeTelecaster]

Its weird seeing Jon with hair O.o

[Dimdez]

Why is there no DVD to this?

[ScandalousMax]

@Dimdez Im also wondering about this, and where this video is from then

[TherionSamael]

WHAT THE FUCK??i didn't know that Jon had long hair!!!!!

[heavendissection]

@TherionSamael Lol he had it for the majority of Dissection's history. He cut it in jail or after it, and appeared bald on Reinkaos. Somberlain, Storm Of The Light's Bane, Past Is Alive, Live Legacy, all long hairs heh. Btw, this song may well be the best live performance by any band, ever.

[TherionSamael]

@heavendissection lol,thanks,i don't know the band since a long time(about 2 month),and everytime i saw Jon's photos he has no hair..anyways,amazing live for an amazing song

[SiT1986]

@heavendissection Yeah, and I wonder why he shaved his hair. I guess it's just regulations or occult reasons - don't know, really. I wonder if the other gang member; Vlad shaved his hair.

[yzarcman23]

@SiT1986 Maybe he never let it grow back after prison.

[OfElderBloodline]

This gig took place 2 weeks after his murder. Jon wasn't even suspected at this time.

[Kamissick]

I will get negative comments for this. But this is Dissection only good song.

[vboxeca]

@Kamissick Everyone has their opinion.

[ledgm108]

i can't believe that Dissection aren't more popular or known than they are. I mean, every album they putout is fucking amazing. Lyrics, nothing short of brilliant. This song is a perfect example, its epic. I jizz my pants ever time I listen to this.haha

[ohrblut666]

E-P-I-C!!!!!

[SiT1986]

The drums @ 2:50.

[YTisMyPlaylist]

@soulfly62 He did not kill anyone, but he assisted in a murder.

He shot himself in some kind of ritual, crazy dude...but such good music he made.

[HaunziFilms]

@soulfly62 he was, he shot himself. satanic crazyness. I'll never understand those guys. :D

[TheLolthazun]

I'm saddened to see such an amazing band only produce 2 full length studio albums and then disbanding at such a young age :(

[InterpolFL]

@TheLolthazun Well they produced 3 albums actually...it's just the 3rd one is different from their original sound, and thus not as good, which isn't to say its horrible because it is still a Dissection album.

[TheLolthazun]

@InterpolFL Oh... I forgot about shitty Reinakoas or what ever it's called.

[Incisionator]

For some reason this was not yet in my favorites ! Damn, what a track.

[luciferon93]

great as hell!!!your masterpiecies will live eternal!!hail Jon!

[theskullkid72]

Epic

[JimBohabri]

a live gig with not a single failure. :O 

[bluefrog17]

Outstanding live performance.

[diavolical]

The part at 2:16 is sublime live and in studio!

[xerxesmv]

is that Jon's brother on bass? Emil now plays at Deathstars

[AmyBeff]

Gorgeous song and performance. Seems effortless for Jon.

[MrLuciferion]

Best fucking band in the whole fucking planet....

[DarkLordNagash]

The intro makes me shiver everytime. So beautiful ^^.

[SeductionNocturne]

i would give my balls to see tobias kellgren´s drum cam on this video.

[denislaiho]

I FLEW OVER CRYSTAL GROUNDS !

MY EXISTANCE , NUMB

OVER ORCHARDS OF GRIEVANCE

SORROW AND TEARS

THIS BEAUTIFUL SILENCE

IT CALLS ME NOW

DISSECTION is my all-time fave band along with Old Man`s Child

[liveevildevil]

Incredibly Diabolical stage-sound they manage to create here ..

[SatanicBloodAngel666]

These bastards don't know how fucking lucky they are to be seeing them!! What would I give to see this band...

[gromdrums]

Drummer messes up at the beginning...comes in one round too early...but one of the greatest Black Metal songs ever...

[rasputansalvador]

Man too bad this Nigga Killed himself.

[DarkLordNagash]

@rasputansalvador You're an Iiiot. First for saying "Nigga", second for not knowing what satanism is.

[rasputansalvador]

@DarkLordNagash LOL you mad, Brah?

[DarkLordNagash]

@rasputansalvador at you maybe, but generally speaking, not quite.

[rasputansalvador]

@DarkLordNagash OH SHIT SON, SOME CUNT FROM THE INTERNET IS MAD AT ME.

[DarkLordNagash]

@rasputansalvador Looks like you're the actually mad one, I'm not writing all capitals yet ^^.

[rasputansalvador]

@DarkLordNagash Nah brah, Capslock is cruise control for cool.

[DarkLordNagash]

@rasputansalvador "cool"... -__-'

[UnholyX07Death]

where the hell can i download this?

[denislaiho]

@UnholyX07Death ur local music store......

[AnthemsToTheWelkin]

He put on a load of muscle when he was in prison.

[Heavymetalgamer28]

@AnthemsToTheWelkin

No shit dude, I saw an interview with him and he said that in prison, most of his time was spent reading about the occult, talking with people in the yard, or working out

[MyBlacksoul666]

To me comes feelings of melancholy !! I see dissection last at 1996 with  Dimmu Borgir and Cradle on Tour in Germany.It´s so great !!!!HAIL JOHN!!!!!!R.I.P

[BaraPontus2LOL]

Jon looks better with long hair lol ^^ \m/ powerful voice too....

[chickenblaster]

What I meant is , as Slayer were the most inspiring band of the eighties for extreme speed metal, I felt that way about "The Somberlain" and "Storm of the Lights Bane" being as important in the ninties for death metal! Great albums by a super band, very missed!!

[TioPija]

1. The Somberlain

2. Storm of the Lights Bane

3. Where Dead Angels Lie and Reinkaos are fucking great masterpieces!!!!!!!!!!!!! i´m obssessed with The Somberlain, my soul feels the old winds of nowhere

[nergalzoskiacultus]

@TioPija hell yeah!!! you are rigth but i think night´´s blood it´s a fuckin´ masterpiece too!

[SiT1986]

Best live DVD split with old Dimmu!!! \m/

[chickenblaster]

What a great band, definitely the "Slayer" of the ninties!

[bflast]

@chickenblaster Uhm, I guess the "Slayer" of the nineties were Slayer themselves.

[chickenblaster]

@bflast Slayer were very goood in the ninties, but don't you think they lost some of their fire when Dave Lombardo left? "Diabolus in Musica" would have sounded so very different if Dave had been in the band!

[blackheart103]

@chickenblaster What?

[tmib92]

Magical, powerful and spellbounding!

[SiT1986]

Dissection = best band ever!!!!!!

[infernaltyrant]

Why did he kill himself? Was it to sacrifice his soul to satan or chaos or something?

[immortaldan]

@infernaltyrant no he just knew it was time, his life was complete. he had finished all the things he wanted to accomplish on this earth so on to the next...

[NoMemory]

@infernaltyrant Probably he foresaw the come of Lady Gaga!

[infernaltyrant]

@NoMemory LMAO!

[Hverglemer]

Ahhhh...the 1990;s. An amazing and grim time for extreme metal to rise out of the underground!

Hail Jon! R.I.C!

[alexisbutcher]

I WISH THAT THIS GIG WAS EVER FILMED

[jimicok]

que temaso :headbang:

[Ohdannyboy8811]

lol pantera is a joke, dimebag is an overrated cluster fuck

[infernaltyrant]

You just made yourself look like a fucking retard. Even people that aren't into metal can appreciate Pantera's music. Dime is not overrated, if anything he is underrated.

[jackyDoofer]

@Ohdannyboy8811

it's people like you that piss me off.

i love dissection, they're one of my favourite bands, but it's all anger, at least dimebag and pantera could call on a range of different emotions. stop being angry, get some feeling and put away your corpse paint you daft twat.

[Atrumus]

@Ohdannyboy8811 Agreed.

[shadowking1896]

Dissection is one of the reasons, why i learned to play guitar. Indeed HAIL JON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[heavytom89]

I am fucking possessed by this band.

[Derazed85]

Masterpiece!!!

[skyline708]

One word to describe it:

EPIC!

Hail Jon!

[Ensiferes]

RIP Jon! :'(

[HallowedCurse]

RIP Jon. Great band and great song. \m/

[MAGOBIBIDI]

I flew over crystal ground

My existence, numb

Over orchards of grievance,

Sorrow and tears

This beautiful silence

Calls me now

only respect HAIL HAIL HAIL JON !

[h6rr6mo6n]

THE SOMBERLAIN!!!!

Dissection und jon sind legenden!

-I- SATANIC POWER -I-

[DarkLordNagash]

Yeah. Their old stuff was much better, pure awesomeness.

I wish I could have seen them live back then but I was 6 years old rofl

[extremeaggression94]

dude, when this was filmed, i was 3 years old!! haha

[GunwallsJoBailey]

I was five xD

[NecroDeath]

Hell yes this is a badass video!!!

[lordabomity]

The good old days!

[DoctorSiniestro666]

HAIL , HAIL, HAIL JON

[DjN1te]

The lyrics to his songs are very intense and real. I enjoy this.

[dreadss64]

everything he wrote was god!

[raysthhaa]

Fuck;! These Guys no how to play live! Wow!

[VigilanteSuicide]

Wish I could of seen them back then...Amazing time period for them!!

[Berglorden]

R.I.P Jon and Dissection

[DarkLordNagash]

Gotta imagine, he wrote his best things in 1993 end 1995, he was just a boy back then...

Great skills, great feeling for headbanging rhythm and melodies, and also somehow a poet , best black metal lyrics I ever heard... (where dead angels lie, night's blood).

[motomayhem15]

"its the dawn of descending, I am the Somberlain" thats got to be the best line ive ever heard in any song. atleast top 5 lines

[DarkLordNagash]

Yeah right. But as the band said, Jon put much more into the lyrics on Storm Of The Light's Bane.

The verse after the acoustic part in Night's Blood

The chorus and last verse in Where Dead Angels Lie

The chorus in Soulreaper

etc etc

Are simply brilliant

SOTLB is one of the best albums of all time.

Jail changed Jon so much, look at Reinkaos : it's Power metal ! The whole strength in the sound, voice and lyrics just... gone... Reinkaos is so weak all in all

But still, HAIL JON

[motomayhem15]

well maybe jail made him more submissive cause thats what inmates do to to you psychologically. like mentally, he became a passive person

[metaldavegoesbm]

For me Reinkaos is not weak at all.

for me it's like

SOTLB=100% My favorite album

The Somberlain=98%

Reinkaos=95%

All three albums are excellent in my opinion. I think that Reinkaos is underrated by many Dissection fans. But that's just my opinion, I respect your opinions as well!

[DarkLordNagash]

Yeah SOTLB is really the best album ever written. The Somberlain also rocks but...

I just don't know. Reinkaos is just too different from the older Dssection, and I didn't find what I expected from Jon's talent on this one. Not creepy enough ^^

[Keketteparty]

Jail didn't destroy his brain, MLO did it. But Reinkaos is a good and dark album, just sounds different. But the message is the same.

"I will cremate this world and set my essence free" "Without fear I will dance with death and misery, Maha Kali, come to me"

It doesn't look like peaceful xD

Remember he committed suicide to bring the anti cosmic order (lol).

[DarkLordNagash]

Jail destroys anyone. You have no contact to anything, you have nowhere to go, you turn crazy in there for sure.

But whatever. About Reinkaos, the lyrics are the same kind, but I don't like his way of making music. It has changed, I respect it, but I don't like it.

What I love about Jon is first his talent, and then the fact that he had his own convictions and that he lived and died, with and for them.

Forever respect to this man, suicidal or not.

[Keketteparty]

Mmmh, jailed or not, his soul was blackened and wicked from the start. But, big contrast, he was kinda cool and a nice person.

Anyway, like you say, hail to the fuckin artist. A great musical loss, we all miss him.

[DarkLordNagash]

Yeah we miss him. The hardest for the fans is always to accept and respect such a decision. But a part of himself remains in his music ^^

[Ensiferes]

@DarkLordNagash +1 =)

[Derazed85]

Jon was always a satanist during the Dissection era, it had nothing to do with that he became a prisoner!

[FenderUsa]

reinkaos is ok but was a huge letdown imo
