Dimmu Bongir "Hvis Pipen Tar Oss" CD Digipack

Pro-replicated CD manufactured with a glasmaster (no CDr).
Packed in a 6-panel glossy Digipack, sealed in shrink foil.
Strictly limited to 300 copies including handnumbered and stamped CNB certificate.

The debut of this Norwegian duo.

Obviously with such a name it is no wonder for it to be, at least in the surface, a Dimmu Borgir worship act, comprising the “For all tid” or “Stormblast'' elements,as we are offered a symphonic solution of black metal with a clean production and sparkling harmonious synth leaden melodies. However, if we look at the aesthetics and lyrics we have more of a parody of marijuana induced death worshipping and other hilarious blasphemous content.

Despite this light-hearted approach to black metal and far from my comfort zone, as I often stay away from symphonic black metal, this is undoubtedly a fun and irreverent take on symphonic black metal. Its strong musicianship, fierce vocals, and hilarious lyrics create a unique and entertaining listening experience. While not for everyone, it's a breath of fresh air for those who appreciate black metal with a healthy dose of humour.
