@darkv6 And unlike most Black Metal bands, they take a philosophical route when it comes to dealing with religious matters; rather than a childishly Satanic one. I can't take seriously the bands who just defiantly embrace the idea of religion in the hopes of pissing off the faithful.
Dark Fortress, however, deeply question the entire concept altogether.
I'm a deep person and enjoy deep lyrics and substance. In that regard, Dark Fortress stands above the rest.
@Metalking312 The other drum set is most likely for the band the is going to be after them, they usually have the headlining bands stuff set up in the back, then the opening bands stuff in front of that.
@Metalking312 From the band that plays before or after they do. Sometimes there's no time to take appart a drumset and put a whole different one together between two acts.
Seriously. Go do your faggot kickboxing somewhere else. Metal is about music. Black Metal is about atmosphere (at least a lot is). We don't want you at our shows anyways.
A great fucking song from a great fucking METAL band.
For all the teenage kids that think u need to be a kickboxer for hardcore, a mosher/thrasher for death metal or a satanic murderer for black metal. Dream on and leave the scene. This is METAL and u like METAL and don't dislike cause the crowd isn't moving but enjoying the music.

@tehpeasant Retard they always will be Far Beyond for ur stupid Nocte Obducta band because they are too Blackish than them, Nocte Obducta songs are sux in instrumental meterial and vocals, and btw the others 2 black metal band who can aproach DF is Venom and Immortal so Rock On with DF \m/
Yeah BM it's origin is Ambiance and this song is pretty much the root of it all and pure example of what BM is. Yeah most BM songs aren't really meant for moshing like bands like Slayer and Cannibal, Suffocation etc etc. It's meant for headbanging and horn raising.
Although Dark Fortress is the English translation of Dimmu Borgir, its a fact that Dark Fortress IS the superior band of the two! Love the new album, Ylem!! Hailz to Dark Fortress!!
No, I'm part Spanish... I'm just saying I don't think the Cholo look fits in with symphonic black metal if you can follow what I'm saying. Especially considering they are Scandinavian...
That pushes my point even further, all I am saying is that it doesnt fit the job... just like if you worked for a big retail business and showed up to work in an S&M suit.... doesnt make sense.
@lxXMETALXxl :)) they are not Scandinavian band, they Come From Fucking Germany Hell Yeah, and Heil Germany for Gr8 Bands like : Rammstein(industrial), Helloween(power), Crematory(Death) and ofc Dark Fortress(Black)
hahaha. ummm. shutup? don't be one of the band-recommending faggots. thinking you are more elite than everyone else that enjoys black metal...just because you like a certain band. You're a failure.
"good" immediately implies opinion which renders any argument pointless. they are enjoyable to some (myself included) and not so enjoyable to others (such as yourself)
which (in your eyes) superior bands would you recommend in a similar style?
@covenantfighter ummmm, idon't know, there are a lot of good bands, dark fortress is good, but not that GOOD as all say, i think ildjarn, samael, dimmu borgir, mirrorthrone and divine symphony ,are good bands too, well, i donpt know, hah sorry for saying things about dark fortress ;)
God, the people commenting here are idiots. The whole theme of this song is the atmosphere. That's what most black metal is about. And that's the reason the crowd isn't going crazy in a pit. As others have pointed out, go to a Cannibal Corpse or Slayer show if you want to mosh. As for me, I think the song is amazing, I was banging my head with the crowd and with the band. Hail Dark Fortress.
symphonic black metal = Heavy slow or fast riffs Dark lyrics and beautiful sounds mixin u cant realy trash at that just listen and headbang and feel the magic inside u
It's been a long time since I saw a crowd listen to the music being played instead of going nuts. But then again, it's hard to really go apeshit when the music oozes Celtic Frost
a song to end a show with, dark, epic.. doom ridden.
