Dimmu Borgir is a melodic black metal
band hailing from Norway. Shagrath, Silenoz and
Tjodalv initiated the band in 1993. Shortly
after, Brynjard Tristan joined to play
bass, and Stian Aarstad joined for keyboard
duties. Dimmu Borgir was born. They are a band whose success is measured
alongside such bands as Emperor, Kreator
and Cradle of Filth. Haunting keyboard
melodies, aggressive guitar work, destructive drums, grim/raw vocals and
a touch of melodic/operatic vocals characterize Dimmu Borgir's sound. They
are musically inspired by 80's black metal, heavy metal as well as classic
composers like Wagner and Dvorak.
Pronounced "dim-moo bore-gear,"
the Dimmuborgir is a large area of unusually
shaped lava fields east of Lake My´vatn, on Iceland. The Dimmuborgir
area is composed of various caves and rock formations. It would seem that
this has been formed from a lava-lake, out of which molten lava flowed and
left behind strange formations. The most famous cave being Kirkjan - the
Church - high with a large gothic style vault. Dimmu=foggy/dark, Borgir=castle/fortress.
