Old Man's Child - God of Impiety

[LordRapture11]

Mustis may seem expendable but he had a huge stake in the band and to say that he didnt matter that much is an insult. Dimmu Borgir will still rock as Shagrath is pretty good at making keys as well as Galder but if you listen to an album like Spiritual Black Dimensions, or Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia, you will see that his stuff is considerably more elaborate than Shagraths.

[LordRapture11]

The first time I heard this I loved it so much I sat down and learned every song on the guitar in a matter of a couple of days. Probably the one of the best Black Metal albums ever! Solos are kinda tricky on a couple of songs but fun as hell to play. And easier than you might think to play a lot of this stuff.

[Skoomaheadmrmush]

pickles plays the drums

[blackholesingl]

MY GOD that riff after the solo is fucking killer!!!

[Blooddpac]

you have to know that galder's lyrics are improvised on this album. And that galder plays the guitar, thet keyboard, and the bass

[9HereticPrincess9]

@Blooddpac Yep he does everything on his albums but drums ^_^

[cryptoprocta]

best old man's child album =D

[1heavymetalboy]

AWESOME!

[Bmetalful]

4:18 is \m/ x 1000

have loved these guys for a while. Galder is the only reason I still like DB.

[9HereticPrincess9]

@Bmetalful If he left, then DB would REALLY go downhill, they're not the same since Vortex was kicked out. Mustis is expendable.

[DethGuyX3]

Anyone have noticed that all the best bands are coming from scandinavia? Think about it: How many damn good bands have came from Finland, Norway or Sweden? I'm glad to live in this area.

[XanaX93]

I like the cover art. Reminds me of some fantasy RPG game :)

[MetalMonster515]

What Galder lacks in hair he makes up for it in musical talent...a True God!

[Bout2shout]

THIS WHOLE ALBUM IS SICK!! MY FAV FROM OLD MANS CHILD

[JasstoJazz420]

Soooooo old school man....so many good memories!!!!!

[darkness1485]

me llega ta vergon!!!!

[BringerOfTruth123]

Some little cunt on another video had the nerve to say that OMC is mainstream. You would have to be a fucking dimwit to think that this band is in any way mainstream.

[TheMMGStudio]

doesnt care what anyone says, dimmu borgir just arent as rad as galder doing OMC!!

[Wehrmacht6669]

 Galder \m/ \m/

[meshuggahfan]

Gene Hoglan on the drums, ripping it up! as usual!

[elrollo]

@meshuggahfan he's indeed a legend!

[Dragonion2010]

I don't know exactly what it is but there is something about OMC's sound and the way they compose and the music in general that makes it very unique and easy to identify. I seriously don't know how many times I have listened to this album and (perhaps even more) The Pagan Prosperity in the late 90s ... and suddenly I begin to feel the nostalgic ...

[WagonMancer]

Its so happy and evil at the same time.

[pickupthePWN]

theres such a fine line between OMC and Borgir.

[whitechapel313]

Jesus that riff is just too fucking sick!

[slayersdiciple]

I can't understand how Galder is in Dimmu now, yet they STILL fucking suck. I can take 3 OMC songs are i'd listen to that any day over Dimmu. Strange

[Issverr]

@slayersdiciple Galder has almost no imput in Dimmu, and when he does, he does it their style

[oldmanschild2009]

si definitivamente este el mejor album de todos.

[TheDisfigured]

I really like OMC, but I don't like it when they slow down, and then speed up again. Sometimes....I just want a non-stop cacophony of metal insanity, you know? A song with no climax because it's ALL climax. All in all, great song.

[connormallory]

@TheDisfigured  Any Vital Remains Song will do...

[naturmystik]

Stratovarius - Black Diamond

[whitechapel313]

0:32 is so fucking epic

[DerAnstifter]

This is what German mediocrity should turn into when it comes to music. They're demeaning the sense of good black metal with so many worthless bands they come up with day after day.

[ollyization]

for the first 30 seconds iu thought i had gone deaf or something along those lines still sounds great :D:D:D:D

[Decon87]

HOLY. FUCKING. SHIT. I'd only ever listened to the first song on this album, I'm just now going through the whole thing. I've NEVER had a reaction like this to ANY KIND of music, this is fucking AMAZING. In 10 minutes, this has became my favorite album I've ever listened to.

[pepsiguy313]

@Decon87 i find i come back to it all the time. Its one of the top played albums on my pod.

[DerAnstifter]

@Decon87 Before this impression, be honest and tell... what kind of music were you in before this encounter?

[Decon87]

@DerAnstifter Still a lot of metal. Stuff like Strapping Young Lad, Pantera, Dark Fortress, Testament, At The Gates, etc.

[lostswamplordi]

@Decon87 Same exact feeling... I have been learning and mastering galder's style for awhile.. like a melodic dark metal. I a not generalizing the type of music just trying to give it some characteristics. I really can't put a genre on something that can be played throughout the past 2 thousand years and still be loved. I know Bach and Mozart would get along with galder.. cheers Pagan prosperity is my fav.. just sayin..

[jcoppolinolive]

@Decon87 any old man's child album is amazing front to back. 

[B0ssKay]

@Decon87 The Pagan Prosperity album is even better.

[legalizedaherb]

sin duda su mejor disco q an sacado masterpice

[antonio1977jp]

And the Black Metal rules! Hail OId Man's Child!!!

[antonio1977jp]

... and the Black Metal rules!!!

[OphidianLord]

kinda reminds me of yngwie malmsteens crown of thorns but still a great song OMC rules!!

[Stellectis2014]

this IS a fucking bad ass song music what which you may call it. Metal at this point is epic KEEP LISTENING

[shosherotz]

no este grupo es la mera ver genial

[igotwoodhaha]

0:00-0:30 best part.

[quasiputrefication]

they dont have the respect you figure they should have because they dont give a fuck they do what they love doing and prbably not so much for the money but more of a telling of the truth in one way or another

[FromDimmuLand]

@quasiputrefication Yea, those Dimmu guys had two or three projects going didnt they ?

Rather, the guys from DimmuBorgir where in several bands ..

[laurensDG]

this band still doesn't get the respect they deserve..

[skragg1891]

This was (and still is) a Fucking awsesome record all the way..Hell yeah!!

[TheJonMaster]

whats this song about though? but the main riff is SOOOO chawesome!

[galder006]

galder is the man and  3.05 to 3.58 is shitttttt

[KATRINMOSES22]

uffffffffffffffff esta canción es una de las mejores de old mans child severoooo

:)

[L2kite]

Is that a Khorn chaos soldier on the album cover ??

[limas777]

This is a copy of Black diamond - Stratovarius!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOL

[Jertsukka]

@limas777 Did you know that Black Diamond is copied from Eleanor Rigby, which is from The Beatles?

[Drugsman]

@limas777 riff is similar but not equal =P

[djakew77]

Galder should tell demon boogers to fuck off and just make really good music like this.

[BringerOfTruth123]

love this song SO much. Ill natured spiritual invasion is old mans childs master of puppets.

[ven0m6969]

Galder is the SHIT

very talented

[limas777]

black diamond - stratovarius,,,,,,

cool

[gangaextrafool]

can't we all just burn in hell?

[Eddie692]

@gangaextrafool i will see you there >:)

[rytmen]

@gangaextrafool Most retarded comment ive seen until now.

[Zataic56789]

Love it!!!

[DannielHateful]

so fucking powerful

[tintinchinty]

I had this album cover as my wallpaper on my comp it owns!

[JustTheThruth]

this is not exactly a black metal riff but it's pretty good.

[bohemenmann]

Nothing is an exact term of nothing, exactly is never true, hey who are you to say?

[JustTheThruth]

Becouse i listen to black metal and i know what a black metal riff is.

[bohemenmann]

Okay, so only the bands that you listen to and their riffs are black metal, but not Old Man's Child. Could you explain why?

[JustTheThruth]

I didn't said OMC is not black metal, i said THE RIFF is not exactly a BLACK METAL riff. learn how to read.

[bohemenmann]

Learn how to think you nigger.

[JustTheThruth]

Lol, so intelligent your reply. The only "good" word a looser could say is "nigger".

[bohemenmann]

No, I could make it more intelligent too, but I doubt it would help you?

I am curious as to which bands holds the answer to which riffs are black metal and which are not. Is there a special technique one must use to make it so, in your opinion, or is it a special effect you require?

I am just trying to show you that you have no understanding of reality and the complexity of subjectivity involved in it. You are simplistic but have(?) the potential to become more.

[JustTheThruth]

Its about the sound or you can't say the difference between a black metal riff, a heavy metal riff, a thrash metal riff, a punk riff... lol. Oh yeah, that's becouse i'm a nigger. looool. At least i have ears and i listen to the music. The main riff IS NOT A black metal riff. STFU.

[bohemenmann]

Yes, I use that word to describe people who purports to know something about truth when they have not graduated beyond the kindergarden level of arguing mine-yours and this-that.

[JustTheThruth]

PFFF, Now trying to insult putting an inteligence level on me? naaaahh, your arguments are just weak. Maybe you listen to metallica and say, "hey, that's doom metal or noise or pop because Nothing is an exact term of nothing"... zzzzzzzz

[bohemenmann]

I go under to the muck and soil you live off, to show you the overman. Perpetual inspiration for you to evolve and hope of a life larger than the subhuman angstlike dope-fantasies you may have about black metal and it's so called rules.

[JustTheThruth]

that words can be translated to: BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH!!!!! Nothing else to do and saying stupid seudointelligent things. lol.

[Hanggud]

''seudointelligent''

Anyone able to spell pseudo is a wannabee intellectual \m/

''Dark'' teenage metalhead faggot.

[closeco]

@Hanggud no its pseudoephedrine, a drug....lol

[JustTheThruth]

btw: the main riff is not a black metal riff ;)

[bohemenmann]

For all practical reasons that may very well be true.

:)

[JustTheThruth]

That's right. Now settle down.

[bohemenmann]

I did that in my last post already.

[Hanggud]

I repeat: wannabe-peace-making-faggot now when you realize how stupid you sound.

/facepalm

[Hanggud]

Smiley's are for gays. Stop it, you're embarrassing yourself, wannabe-peace-making-faggot now when you realize how stupid you sound.

[jlaudio184]

You people are so sad.

[JustTheThruth]

yeah, i cant stop crying... =::..(

[GrowlingVocals]

O.o

[necrophyl666]

You're funny,I want to be your friend. :D

[Hanggud]

''that's becouse i'm a nigger.''

Joke to light up the tension :))))

/facepalm

You're a fag.

[Hanggud]

Oh boo hoo, stop whining, faggot.

[Hanggud]

Learn how to use capital letters and more clever comebacks, faggot. You're weak.

[Hanggud]

You've said the same about korn, faggot.

OH NOES NO ONES SUPPOSED TO KNOW

[littlebuddy22]

satanic warmaster stole this riff in vampiric tyrant! Every body comment something bad on the vampiric tyrant vid by satanic warmaster!

[entranceemperium]

Calm down...it's not EXACTLY the same riff. And ryhtm guitar in Satanic warmaster is completely different than here.

[tns1183]

omc kills. gene hoglan owns on drums.dimmu is still good. but omc kills

[TOASTSPAGHETTI]

thanks a ton for uploading this album

[kingnevable]

galder is ungod

[cristocannibal69]

tocan bien cabron al antes no me gustaban pero son laley

[ordogg]

es una excelente muestra de black metal melodico y todo armoniza ala perfeccion guitarras bateria el bajeo, bueno que no es nada raro en OMC sino para muestra escuchar millenium king o my evil revelations en donde todo encaja perfecto pero con esta cancion Galder se volo la barda me cae

[SecondHandMessiah]

i love how Galder keeps all the great riffs for OMC and throws the left overs to Borgir!

hhaha

[Atrumus]

@SecondHandMessiah HAhahaa!

[m3tallih0lic]

@SecondHandMessiah aha hell yeah.. OMC>BORGIR

[hammermelon]

@SecondHandMessiah You 're right isn't that awesome? Galder is amaizing indeed.

[WagonMancer]

@SecondHandMessiah I disagree, i think Galder has enough greatness to go around.

[pickupthePWN]

@SecondHandMessiah it would appear to be the opposite

[SecondHandMessiah]

@pickupthePWN no it doesn't

[WartoothisGod]

Probably the single greatest black metal guitar riff ever written

[realaretua]

Una vez alguien me dijo que a galder le habia quedado grande estar en dimmu borgir pero al escuchar estas magnificas canciones pienso que aquel que me lo dijo nisiquiera sabia de quien estaba hablando.

[Linatros]

Te lo habran dicho de silenoz que hace bastante menos imagino yo...pero eso no kita que el señor de bastante cañita

[metal5666666]

The most under rated song of OMC

[Warpadice]

YEAH! STRATOVARIUS FOREVER! No, wait a minute....

[zodiac308]

LMAO!!!!!

[HitiSama]

^^' jijiji Nice joke :P

[Linatros]

Yeah, black diamond xDD. This type of scale are very similar...

[BrngBckOldCOB]

absolutely awesome. How do these damn scandanavian bands turn out great riff after great riff? A lot of talent up there.

[daimoni1]

@BrngBckOldCOB

Just to note that Galder plays in Dimmu Borgir nowadays :-) Old Man's Child is just his solo project.

[TrevortIn]

@daimoni1 Read some interviews, Galder always opposes to the idea of OMC being "just his solo project".

[69stringibanez]

@BrngBckOldCOB I like your name

[WagonMancer]

@69stringibanez HAHA ya, their albums got worse in chronologically order it seems like. 

[BrngBckOldCOB]

@69stringibanez Hey thanks buddy. It is my dream that one day Old COB will make a comeback. I'm not holding my breath but you never know.

[rsman169]

@BrngBckOldCOB Not going to happen. Just sayin'.

[countsmyth]

@BrngBckOldCOB

Black metal can only be from Norway! The rest is shit!

[lasoogneypubes]

@BrngBckOldCOB It's cold and boring in Scandinavia so all they do is play music all day.

[CY130RG]

@lasoogneypubes that is not true, they do many things but there are lazy people in america too

[lasoogneypubes]

@CY130RG I never said there weren't lazy people in America. 

[CY130RG]

@lasoogneypubes that is not true, they do many things but there are lazy people everywhere

[Sorgutentarer]

The entry is so scary..

[tzutzescu]

fav song

[Psycho888999]

Black Diamond's riff turned into even greater win.

[jimmyitaly]

FANTASTICA!!

[sakoulas74]

Awesome !!! This album was amazing...

Ofcourse 5/5...

[csehszlovakze]
