Dimmu Borgir - The Maelstrom Mephisto

[Stigmableedingblack]

As USUAL the Vortex part of the song is the absolute best

[itsmejesus]

What is the name of the dude that sings "Dwell in depths of the darker self at any shore of infinity...."?

[jippe2223]

@itsmejesus

ICS Vortex

[Master971122]

Good

[Hamdenklamme]

HAHAHA! Make all the swans suffer in hell xD never thought that was what he actually said :P Awesome song, 1 of Dimmu's best!

[lasoogneypubes]

I don't like Black Metal as a whole. It fucking sucks ass in my opinion. Dimmu Borgir and Old Man's Child are the only black metal I can listen to.

[baldanxsi]

@lasoogneypubes because they aren't black metal :)

[tisofia]

Vortex is just... WOW!

[LeeReed1002]

I don't listen to much black metal but Dimmu does grow on me, this song in particular has awesome drumming and an ace hard massive sound as well and I love the operatic symphonic bit in the middle and how it goes with this music..... this band ain't bad at all :^)

[HeyYoKillEmo]

Nick Barker is awesome but he isn't god...we call that man John Longstreth.

[horrorfestlover]

@HeyYoKillEmo More like Niel Peart. Even Nick himself said Niel is one of his greatest inspirations.

[shockofhyperbole]

Talk about triggered drums. 

[MrNotocojest]

Siedmiu osobnikom sie to nie podoba.Kiedys w jakiejs grubej basni (biblia,czy cos takiego) czytalem,ze nadejdzie dzien,kiedy przybedzie 7 aniolow z siedmioma trabkami i jak zadmuchaja 7 razy do tych trabek to bedzie koniec swiata...To pewnie te skurwiale anioly tu trolluja!

[sofukingwhat]

2:40 and specially 2:54 is probably one of the best metal guitar/drum/symphony/clean vocal combination ever created , can you go more epic than this, doubt it

[Metal555Fan]

@sofukingwhat I know, Its so fucking beatiful and melodic.

[horrorfestlover]

@Metal555Fan I wouldn't consider this song melodic at any parts, it's fast-paced. Sorgens Kammer Del II is melodic.

[Metal555Fan]

@horrorfestlover but still...this song is amazing! and yeah I love Sorgens Kammer Del II too :)

[horrorfestlover]

@Metal555Fan Yes I agree. If you go to my channel, you'll find my drum cover of Sorgens Kammer Del II. Comments are appreciated! Thanks (:

[Depthcharge]

2:11 <3

[vgmt050597]

Nick Just Like Daniel Erlandsson, but JASKA IS THE BEST LOL!!!

[Mephisto28890]

Darkness arise, hear my words- first we destroy earth, then we burn down heaven!

[bloodhayze]

dude......the drummmer is fucking epic \m/

[everybodymustdie666]

ICS Vortex.

[LookAtThatBigNameYo]

how can dimmu play live without vortex men?i mean are they gonna playback his voice? :/ and its not a song or two there are a lot of songs that r dominated by vortex

[HorrorWednesday]

2:12 - 3:09 <33

[MrCougar42]

Look at your comment, now back to mine. Now back at your comment now back to mine. Sadly it isn't mine, but if you stopped trolling and start posting legitimate comments it could look like mine. Look down, back up, where are you? Ur scrolling through comments, writing the comment ur comment could look like. What did you post? Back at mine, it's a reply saying something you want to hear. Look again the reply is now diamonds. Anything is possible with legit comments. I'm on a chair.

[GanjasaurusRex420]

Ya, sorry, Barker is the god of drumming, niggas has stamina like no other.

[Rednasyl28]

@GanjasaurusRex420 Did you seriously just call Nick Barker a "nigga"...?

[CheerUpEmoFluffy]

@Rednasyl28 haha word

[omygodimawesome]

@GanjasaurusRex420 Whaha, Frost has more stamina in one arm than fat Barker has in his whole body, lolzz

[rxfxXxo]

Barker and Vortex Own this song! :O ...//

[iskim86]

awesome awesome album.

[Thunderwolf666]

2:13 is where it really gets great.

[overcontrol]

hellhammer is a idiot stupid, barker is god

[Ryles30]

@overcontrol

Your fucking stupid hellhammer is loads better.

[overcontrol]

@Ryles30 haha ok bro

[aassyr1111]

dear god, i have one thing i wanted to tell you long time ago :

FUCK YOU

hail dimmu \m/

[ffp08]

Just so all of you knw Shagrath and Sylenoz are Free Masons, and this song's lyrics explains all the truth of existance.

[CataclysmicHarbinger]

i dont give a damn what other christians say i love this fucking band

[Wyndrax]

This album sounds like fucking Cradle of Filth.

I love Dimmu, but they hit rock bottom with this one. At least they seem to have recovered.

[slayerd81]

Holy shit their drummer is insane!

[meshzzizk]

@thepeterlong They sure are.

[thepumpkin1979]

Unleash the ***maelstrom mephisto***!!!

[andybehere]

why do people come on here arguing about shit just enjoy the music if you don't like it then beat it, dimmu rule \oo/

[Corrosive1]

I dont care shit if these guys ever believed in satanism or not , though i have understood that they didn't. I love the way how they put symphonies into this kind of extreme metal , they have made lot of great music. I hate people arguing over and over again if they're satanic or not, and if theyre black metal or not. I dont give a fuck , i love this dynamic great music , and it inspirizes me!

[GuidoMetallo]

fucking vortex what a homo angel

[hdrumnp]

@GuidoMetallo His voice murders so shut the fuck up.

[ffp08]

These people in this band are not Satanists, they mock Christians. While doing so they sing about Hell and Satan destroying their valor and pride existance, but what they are really doing is singing about the creation of the universe and the how mankind evolved through hypocracy of the bible rather then the ultimate truth ... there is no God with Heaven or Satan with Hell

[Metalking312]

The moste people, we call satanists, are like dimmu borgir. But i wouldnt call them Christains^^

[metalrocks21rapsucks]

Well said.

[horrorfestlover]

@ffp08 Let me re-write what you are trying to say, they are Athiests mocking Christians with Satanism and telling them they cause misanthropy and hypocrisy of their own religion.

[RandomNub1161]

nick barker and vortex gg.

[HeavyMetaleFan]

it fucking sucks they were the best

[Chievi]

nick barker is the shit... he was much better for dimmu than hellhammer. one of the best songs of dimmu. kicks asses!

[Wyndrax]

@Chievi Hellhammer can play better than Barker, but Dimmu used Barker better than they used Hellhammer.

Sick drummer, the fat one.

[Tidelsson]

@Chievi I really can not understand the point of your observation... Hellhammer has a complex technique and refine sound... Baker has a lot of power... maybe you are trying to say that Baker likes you more than Hellhammer does... But... Who the fuck cares ??

[Chievi]

@Tidelsson of course... who the fuck cares. i just give my comments like every other guy. great song anyway. but there are a lot of better bands with better drummers than both of them (barker, hellhammer)

[omygodimawesome]

@Chievi Hellhammer kicks Barker's ass any given day.

[NostalgiaGrows]

Nick Fucking Barker Is Waaaaay Fucking Better In Drums Than Hellhammer...Period.

:D

-Rene

[HeavyMetaleFan]

nope

[456jr]

Mann thats so fucken true!

[JBGigas]

Who is better Nick or Hellhammer?

[96sanny]

HellHammer.

[FrikkFelix]

true

[xtrememetalfan]

barker all the way,this song says it all!!!

[dappomb6523]

This song is a fan letter Nicolas sent to Sean Reinert:P

[xissburg]

Shagrath burps at 1:50 lol

[dankrom]

Oh come on you guys, it was just a joke, you know we all love Shagrath:)

[thenameless191993]

[RafalOi]

(L)egia pany!

[xissburg]

[Brutality169]

Best Dimmu Song !

[rizat666]

nick barker !!!!!

[CsalbertCs]

Crazy good drummer thats for sure.

[Envenomed69]

What im talking about is that i believe that frost from satyricon is a better drummer than nick barker...thats what im talking about.

[CSauTneR]

Oh. I think that they both have strong points in different areas of drumming. Both are great.

[blegh129]

@HELLRAISEROID

Honestly, you're an idiot, calling something gay, which is the opposite of what Christianity wants you to be, and then saying "something Demonic or Satanic" Is just fucking stupid.

[Greno]

@Envenomed69

both awesome bands

and frost is an awesome drummer but im still going tiwht nick barker for full fledged speed

[thispagesux]

@Envenomed69 lmao, barker eats frost for breakfast.

[CSauTneR]

What are you talking about?

[THEMGOROTH75]

UNLEASH THE MAELSTROM MEPHISTO!!!!!

[Envenomed69]

Nick Barker is good Frost from satyricon is better.

[DrsDcs]

no way man

dimmu borgir went down the ratings the moment nick barker left

[maigj]

Ignorant!

[FATALZ7]

nice i.c.s vortex great vocals

[emoJuggalo03]

DRUMS!!! :D

[TheJunkieBox]

Nearly as good as KotCC. :D

[Freerange99]

(L) Nicholas Barker

[bmwman87]

"Dwell in depths of the darker self at any shore of infinity

And watch the relentless paint the soil black

What is being formed echoes throughout eternity

As the painter chooses color no more"

That part is the best

[CandyCane541]

2:41 is beast, indeed.

[cheapshot101]

Nick Barker is a fucking god

[Hideyaa]

fast!!!!

[Norther219]

I believe this is Nick Barker, and hellhammer just did in sorte diaboli

[Sgtpeppers842]

hellhammers a sexy bitch at drumming him and tim yeung continue to blow me away my hearts broken now that he quit dimmu though! come back hellhammer!

[missLaiho]

helvetin hieno kappale! ja saatanan nättiä käsialaa... :D

[bmwman87]

Just great!

Best part is 2:40 - 3:40 :)

[CSauTneR]

I'd just like to bring up that I didn't use the album cover on purpose. I saw people that did in fact use the album cover and their videos got removed for nudity. So stop messaging me about it, I am fully aware that this is just the logo.

[marqueskart]

The drumming. :D

[MetalDctr]

Dimmu is the "adult Black Metal" band, meaning they don't run around and burn churches. They're more about the music and the artsy side of Black Metal, like the dark lyrics and shit. In any way I think they are the best in the business.

[CSauTneR]

I would have to agree. The only black metal bands that burned churches were the shit bands like Mayhem and Dark Funeral. They're so fucking horrible that they aren't even around making good, high quality music unlike Dimmu and Behemoth.

[Christianholt911]

Yeah, but Mayhem has a pretty Macabre story..

The only guy i can fully respect in Mayhem, is HellHammer, cuz he isn't a bad person and he is an awesome drummer (Norways best probably)

[rainfordmetallica]

worlds best (tied with Frost)

[skateanddie666]

but one thing dark funeral has good sound quality and mayhem to darkthrone have bad sound quality and mayhem is a good band to without them black metal was very different but that they do church burning is stupid

[MARKUSFAN88]

When did anyone from Dark Funeral burn a church?

[DarkPrimeGS]

Lord Ahriman claimed he was involved in church burnings in Sweden that took place around the same time as the Norwegian ones (he said this in an interview with Dr. Rock)

[meshzzizk]

@CSauTneR Emperor and Burzum were shit bands, but Dimmu Borgir are "high quality"? lmao

[CSauTneR]

@meshzzizk I meant high quality as in you don't need to turn your speakers up all the way just to hear the music.

[Nothcliff]

I've been wondering, this music is friggin intense, however does Dimmu Borgir believe in the songs that they are singing or are they doing them to entertain? either way still sound pretty friggin awesome.

[CSauTneR]

From what I've read in a magazine, Shagrath who is the singer, doesn't believe in this type of music because of his daughter. So he has a heart. I'm pretty sure the others aren't twisted as well.

[Nothcliff]

alright, then these guys are awesome!

[Christianholt911]

He believed a little in it, the early years (Various events prove that, he's baptizing etc) But i think that had more to do with a "Shock value" thing, and not what he really ment (He's an Atheist, in real) None of the members of Dimmu Borgir is in any way Satanistic, and their texts are ment to be looked at like an abstract form of art

[Christianholt911]

ive gone in-depth in their backgroundstory. Dimmu is from the same country as I, so it's pretty easy to get information about them. And if you watch the behind scenes in their live shows, you'll that they are more "Rock'nstylish" in behaviour ;)

[dmdrummer23]

how can you NOT like satanism?

[AlmightyMatthew]

hehe true ;)

[emiljl]

What album is this on?

[CSauTneR]

Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia.

[robmil5220]

if you wanna hear a comparable drummer check out Flo Mounier of Cryptopsy

he shreds too

[FallenSkorm]

awesome.

[SteeledOwl]

My favorite black metal band.

[headbanger32594]

yeah put this song on rock band drums. i wanna meet the guy who can beat it.

[WelcomeToDetroitWimp]

the drums!

[Zephyrus34]

lmao i always tell my buddies they should just throw this song on rock band or guitar hero, but im not a fan of the game so i'd be happy to see people bust their ass's off playing this song.

[JointSmokewalker]

haha ur right, but dont forget, 2 guitars, thats how dragonforce does it but they suck anyway, same fuckin music, different lyrics but id shit if anyone could even do one of the solos dimmu does and see how badly their hand hurts if they can keep up

dimmu borgir>everyone else

[FatherFalcone3]

ahhh vortexs part in this song is sooooo awesome, literally

[filthygirl25]

my brother make me lisen to this song and i thinks its cool

[Austinmyslinsky]

Good for your brother.. he is pointing you in a right direction listen to vital remains icons of evil!

[filthygirl25]

i know thta song is cool plus the singer is hot!

[blackvoid2]

[snip3rzstr]

[upnaras]

How the fuck is Extreme Black metal even SIMILAR to Technical Death metal?

[timitri8]

[Incoherente]

[CSauTneR]

What are you talking about? This is the one and only!

[MySoulsAblaze]

[kissfanseries]

[streetsofrage123]
