Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia is still one of my favourite metal albums. The blend of black metal guitars & drums, cinematic orchestrations and tied together with electronic synths and vocal effects. The contrast of Shagrath’s aggressive vocals with Vortex’s almost angelic operatic sections gives so much variation. The album feels like a full band brought their A game and all worked together to craft such incredible music. This song is a prime example of packing so many elements together without feeling forced or gimmicky.
@@Jdemonify they are still good, but for me, something is missing from the music since Vortex and Mustis are no longer part of it. Maybe I am also nostalgic for the wonder they gave me when I was in highschool and they released this album (2001).
Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia is PEAK Dimmu...everything clicked, perfect balance between melody and darkness. A true masterpiece. Not one bad song, all killer no filler! I didn't think it really needed to be remastered. The albums before, yes.
Nick Barker's work on this album set the pattern for all the technical extreme metal bands that came after. Earth shattering, quick, precise AND extremely musical. Best line-up too (even though I'd have loved to hear Astennu playing some of his solos here)
No, the new mix doesn't work. The high freq's on the guitars and the more clicky drum sound gave the album a modern, and one might say "industrial" feeling to the songs. This is all gone now. It is not a matter of which mix sounds "better" but which one represents the songs more accurately. Obviously, it is the band's decision and preferences. But I still prefer the original version.
@@kingpriapatius5832 I have compared both versions and, although the original has its uniqueness, it is quite loud and full of conflicting frequencies, which makes it messy. The new one mellows the sound a bit, but evens out everything and you can hear details barely audible before. It now feels like a more beefy Death Cult Armageddon.
I've been listening to Dimmu Borgir since this album came out, I've always loved them and I still do, and the absence of Vortex continues to be heard, one of the most beautiful male voices I've ever heard, precious.
I saw Arcturus in Milan in 2019, I was completely in a trance... they played divinely, almost all the songs from Aspera, La masquerade, The Sham Mirrors... wow. I'm too glad I had that experience.
Dimmu’s last truly good album was back in 2007. I think they just need to suck it up and get vortex and mustis back in the band. They’ve tried shows with a full orchestra and choir and it doesn’t come close to sounding as good as two people they stupidly let go.
The simplified guitar work has been what has killed it for me. Dimmu was always guitar driven first and foremost, with sick riffs that could stand on their own, but then they take it even further with orchestral elements. The last 2 albums have been so lacking in guitar riffage/heaviness that they went from being one of the best bands in existence to a mildly interesting curiosity. A lot of bands have a quality drop off in their later years, but none hurt quite as much as dimmu when there are so few bands in existence that are on their level.
I am very happy to visit this amazing album in a remixed and remastered version. I hope you Nuclear Blast release the dark, fabulous and intense Death Cult Armageddon in the near future as well. all of us fans will be forever grateful! 🔥🔥🔥🔥 I love Dimmu borgir!!!!

Death Cult was actually Mixed in 5.1 i mean it doesn't get better than that 😂😎😎. Which look back i can see why they did that dice the album before that (This one from the video) didn't get all the attention to mix and stuff

Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia is a classic iconic album, ICS Vortex bass guitar with his clean voice in contrast to Shagrath 'grunting' vocals, incredible drums by Nick Barker, the orchestral symphonic parts by Mustis, and the guitars by Silenoz and Galder.
Twenty years ago I bought this album because one of the songs "Puritania" appeared on a CKY video. It was my only Dimmu album until about 5 years ago when i started buying European versions of the catalog. Finally picked up Eonian last month and was shocked it came out 4 years ago! For 4 years I've been like "didn't Dimmu just release a new album? Must remember to pick it up." Anyway, bring back keyboardist Mustis and clean vocalist ICS Vortex, thaaanks.
i doubt Vortex would return especially full time, iirc their split wasnt in the greatest of spirits plus he now is the Lead Vocalist for Borknagar again after Vintersorg retired due to health reasons
Всё лето 2022 года жила в Бельгии, чтобы по фестивалям ездить, которые с 2020 года переносили. На GMM парни зажгли. Эпический облом со звуком на Puritania был, так что самую ожидаемую песню спели только маленький кусок. Но ничего не могло омрачить выступления. Шаграт - красавец.
I really miss old Dimmu... I feel like the last album they released was like a disney version of Dimmu. I absolutely loved Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia.
it's called trying a different style I guarantee if they stayed with the same style you and everyone else would complain about them being scared to try anything new so kindly stop being a backseat musician
sounds good and little mother is heard, although I agree with the band here who comments that the previous version is better, but I clarify this new version is also cool, greetings and have a great time
I understand that this much more full sound is better from a mixing perspective, but I kinda like that metal saw sorta stabbing sound that the album originally had. I appreciate the toning down of that kick though. That's something I liked when I was younger that I don't like anymore. I like just the faintest hint of clicking with a more wide bass feel underneath.
I love this song and album, but It didn't need a remaster. The original mix is better in my opinion. There are other albums that really could use a remix, not this one.
I heard the whole thing today. Really felt the diference, but pem did not needed this "touch". Since you guys are spending money with old things, pay attention to death cult Armageddon. This could be amazing!
![BELPHEGOR - The Devil´s Son [OFFICIAL LYRIC & PERFORMANCE VIDEO]](/img/n.gif)
as much as I see Dimmu evolving, the Vortex/Mustis/Barker era will always be dear to my heart
Galder fresh out of Old Man´s Child was insanely creative too.
Mustis made Dimmu for me
Vortex/Mustis/Barker/Astennu

couldnt agree more
Nick Barker made is special and it is my favorite Dimmu album
It's a wall of sound with so many layers to it. It's absolutely beautiful and profane at the same time.
@Quentin P no this is not parody of black metal. It is not black metal at all!
Ah 2:38, ICS Vortex's angelic voice and Mustis's keyboard orchestra still give me shivers.
back in the good old days
@@Jdemonify they are still good, but for me, something is missing from the music since Vortex and Mustis are no longer part of it. Maybe I am also nostalgic for the wonder they gave me when I was in highschool and they released this album (2001).
I'm glad I'm not the only one who gets frisson from his voice. I get why Dimmu Borgir (allegedly) got rid of him, but man. Voice of an angel.
Haaaa vortex too bad he got fired
@@cainweo he forgot his bass at a 50,000 person venue according to Dimmu Borgirs website a ahile ago
that would piss me off too

Hands down. Some of THE best drumming ever recorded. No competition.
1:30 FUCK that is so serious
Mr. Nick Barker, damn! no words.🥁🥁🥁💪🏻💪🏻🔥🔥
One of the best Dimmu Borgir songs from the best Dimmu Borgir Album.
Agree 👍👍 friend
Nick Barker's work on this album set the pattern for all the technical extreme metal bands that came after. Earth shattering, quick, precise AND extremely musical. Best line-up too (even though I'd have loved to hear Astennu playing some of his solos here)
I would say it has been done before, one example is Gene Hoglan. But Nick Barker is/was definitely a great inspiration for many.
This album is a masterpiece for the ages.
Why touch later in there music career ???

Like always
For real lol
They will always be great don’t be so jaded.
Ugh don't start using that vomit inducing slogan with such an amazing band 🤮

Nick Barker totally rules! That's is the best formation DB ever had 🤘
Hell yeah ICS Vortex is still on this record!
Love this guy and his master voice ❤️
One of my favourite extreme metal albums remixed and remastered….this sounds amazing…i wear the shirt of the original cover proudly 🤘🏻
Vortex needs to come back!!
Agreed and Mustis and Barker.
Listening to Dust of Cold Memories now. Thanks for this! I love hearing all the different riffs.
Iconic album for Symphonic Black Metal genre

Just another evidence of how their older stuff is superior to the new one. But thanks for this remaster
The good old days when Dimmu Borgir made fast albums. I fall asleep during listening to the latest Dimmu records.
Couldn't agree more👌
Wow! The remastered version sounds amazing!
I could die and be reborn thouseads of times, but this song... It HAS to be there!
I love the song I love the imagery I love the lyrics I love the band
fkg love this one. Glad to see you back. Salut from Canada 🤘🤘

Disneygian black metal is actually a good thing. Take a look around and you will see Disney is on the right side of history.

Bring back the Dimmu Borgir full of heavy riffs please.
it's called trying a different style
I guarantee if they stayed with the same style you and everyone else would complain about them being scared to try anything new so kindly stop being a backseat musician
They never had "heavy riffs" they played as a team to create but it's just meh now
Awesome... The Best.. thanks Dimmu!
Excellent tune, excellent band.
Espetacular!!!!!
sounds good and little mother is heard, although I agree with the band here who comments that the previous version is better, but I clarify this new version is also cool, greetings and have a great time

Meet me at the crossroads. That was awesome.
the sound its great!!! its more "organic " that original version 🤘
I would say Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia is the best Dummu album ever ❤️ undisputed love to this stuff 🤘
So obra más lograda para mi es "Spiritual black dimensions"
MORE please ❤
OMG! it knocks!
Excelente
Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia el mejor álbum de Dimmu Borgir, la combinación perfecta entre black metal y música sinfónica.
The riffs are more of a death metal vibe but when you mix it with keyboard and orchestra it brings the modern black metal sound.
Great mix, gonna buy the CD.
You can feel the thump of the double bass much more here
Simplesmente incrível, rápido, brutal e satânico 🤘🖤🤘😈
This is just OUTSTANDING! Such a great work!
Great 👍
I Dimmu non si smentiscono mai. Adoro i Dimmu Borgir 🤟☠️
Time to get the gang together and release a new album! \M/

Tá mais black metal msm
Igual antigamente só aguardo um dia
This video is very visually appeasing.
Awesome, awesome! Hellish awesome!
Genius.
とても良いです。楽しかった。👂❤
Los teclados se escuchan mejor y aportan más texturas que la versión original.
El problema es que Dimmu ya no va a grabar nada así nuevamente
Quien dice que no. Hay que tener fe.
Vortex, Mustis… Where are you? They’re lost without you.
AWESOME!
The best to ever do it! 🤘🤘
saludos de mexico
new video yay ❤
Awesome track
Things started to derail around Death Cult Armageddon. But the Dimmu train for me reached its full derailment when they released Abrahadabra.
2 or 3 songs on that album still slap tho
Happy Helloween 🕸️☠️💀👻💥🔥
This was already the most overwhelmingly loudly mastered album I've ever bought. Why on earth would they need to remaster it?
I don't hear a huge difference
This friggin' guy: Dimmu is loud.
Smug anime girl: 😏
Havent heard this one in a while. Really groovy.
I was first exposed to metal with this song when I was in junior high school.
I'll never forget the impact it had on me.
Наконец то Ух хорошо
good old times :)
ICS vortex 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Eu venero a banda assim como outras no cenário BLACK METAL!! QUEM CURTE MESMO ACOMPANHA TODAS AS FASES". EMBORA NINGUÉM É OBRIGADO A NADA!!!!
God bless you and Jesus loves you! ❤️🙏✝️💖👑
I really enjoyed Eonian, and it's actually one of my favorite records from them, but damn I do miss when Dimmu felt like THIS.
I love this song and album, but It didn't need a remaster. The original mix is better in my opinion. There are other albums that really could use a remix, not this one.

👌 Wow
Oh shit, where 's the new album guys 🤘🇨🇵
Why did they do??? That album was perfect in 2001 saw that tour overseas
