This EP is perfection! I don't want to start sterile discussions about influences (which shouldn't matter when the final product is not a copy / pastiche), but has anyone felt that Symptom and The Paramount Empire might be the heart of Esoteric Warfare (a brilliant album, too)? That metallic anguish, thrown against the world with a devilish & brilliant technique, in a perfect mix of black+industrial+avant-garde...
ill never forget first getting turned onto this band with this album, they were so unique for black metal esspecially at the time, in 2000 if you sounded like this, yeah you werent alone, but you were doing it right.
Unrelenting pressure of drums, interesting and dramatic dis/harmonic riffs, eclectic samples and instrumentals, all overlooked by insane preaching authority of Aldrahn. For me, the essence not only of Dodheimsgard, but also of 2nd wave of black metal.
@@fredriklindberg7761 Snorre said that second Thorns album is already finished and locked away and that he's waiting for the right time to release it. If that time ever comes.
I remember having an really weird and intense trip while listening to 666 International in my teenage days. Can't say that i recommend it but it was an very unique and creepy experience.
It is quite amazing you can hear bits of this highly condensed radioactive cosmic hellfire on the newer DHG records. This is some time travelling shiet going on here.
It's actually a photograph of my aunt walking in on me masturbating. I snapped it real quick and sent it to the fellas. Said, hey, now here's an album cover
True genius, this album Is really well produce. Diversity, violence, grandiose ambience and the drums!!! I never got tired of listening since the first day it came out. Vocals would have been better with Someone like Satyr for certain parts of the album, completed by the mad Adrahn for certain parts
+Adronera I remember when this was released and in some interwiev they said that they wanted the EP to sound like a factory. Pretty much nailed it when it comes to the songs with guitar.
+John Lewis That's a topic I'm really into these days. I've been listening to these bands since 1996 and the scenepolice types are quite interesting. I mean there are guys that haven't even bought any new black metal albums since like 1997 and they allways say that the sound is somehow better in the old Grieghallen records and that the lousy sound and type of playing is what they like the most. You know, how the 1st and the 2nd Dark Throne almbus differ. I myself have grown up with all of the Norwegian old school BM bands and really like allmost all of the stuff they put out.
A) Coming fro a guy with a dumb ass profile image like yours, it doesnt hold much weight. B) Not all dark or satanic shit needs to have the same aesthetics. Macabre encompasses more than pentagrams and skulls.

Chaotic original black metal masterpiece. Will never get enough of it.
Surprisingly good EP. The violin work on the 2nd track is astonishing.
This ep is definanly a diamond in the rough...... love the Twin Peaks samples.....
i lose myself into this record everytime i listen to. So fucking perfection
a jewel of an EP
I have it on cd from americans!
This has been on my playlist since it came out.
gorgeous...intro is so cold and awesome
One of their best albums, in my opinion..
+fwyion jlock Possibly the best IMHO
+fwyion jlock Cant decide between 666 International, Supervillain Outcast or Umbra omega. But this is something different.
i feel it is their best.
Not kronet Til konge?
you guys should listen Kronet til konge,their all albums are piece of shit compared to Kronet til Konge lol
In 1999, this is what me and all my friends were trying to sound like
got anything on tape?
@@nicklucci5209 he is a LAIR he comment on all video like this spoutin nonsense dont trust a jparks looking ass wannabe aight
An imitation of an imitation. Each derivative becomes worse.
@@sothis1448 and here we are 20 years later, it all sounds like shit.
masterpiece
LOVE this! The Twin Peaks references and samples are great!
Aldrahn of Zyklon B brought me here. This is another masterpiece touched by the devilish one.
Just from the future!

Teloch is very much a fan of DHG, just listen to early Nidingr.
Such an awesome EP, but too short!

Años de no escuchar este disco. Es una puta obra de arte
It's the first time that i listen this album.masterpiece!!! 🤘😈🤘👌👌👌👏👏👏💣💥💣💥💣💥💨💨💨☻
You can tell it's apollyon on drums because of his generous crash cymbals
Hell yeah. I love it!
Your sure it's Apollyon?
I thought it was Agressor
@@wesleywarsmith1113 aggressor is more random and frantic.. he was on 666 intl and supervillain outcast..they both have distinct drum styles
16 minutes of essence

Yes!!!
This is perfection. Too short :'(
If it is perfect it cant be too short

Definately got the Art bit right. Avant-garde demonic black metal.
Yeah,for me Aldrahn was the magic of dödheimsgard now if they just can release the new Thorns as Urarv isn't doin it for me!!!
@@fredriklindberg7761 Snorre said that second Thorns album is already finished and locked away and that he's waiting for the right time to release it. If that time ever comes.
Whats the right time?!?the right time was 15 years ago🤣goddamnit!!!!!
@@fredriklindberg7761 Ask Snorre :)
nice painting on the album cover!
+raainder peyskens It's not a painting.
Wow.. traces of reality
+Guillermo Abad Wow is a good word to describe Traces of Reality for sure, still one of my favorite black metal songs ever.
Fuck remasters! I want to live in the 90s FOREVER, like the Goddamn VAMPYR I am! I used to get stoned as fuck and listen to this as the sun came up...
A black metal album with a pole vaulter on the front cover? I've seen it all now
def. their best
holy fucking shit i am so high this is fucking insane as hell
🤣😂🤣😂🤣

there are 6 songs here, the one from the minute 11:00 is not tittled here... where can I find that?
Ultra schizophrenic
Wow!
Riff school
he's a master rifftician, no doubt
Galder on guitar right?

Brutal
Diabelskie nuty 😈😈😈😈👍👍👍
666 Kilotons of destructive metal
GALDER!
Damn this is makin me Sick!

DHG Fuckin brutality!

Who was the biggest POS I've ever had the displeasure to meet!
Anyone knows the name of the original painting with that guy's face in the left side of the cover?
It's actually a photograph of my aunt walking in on me masturbating. I snapped it real quick and sent it to the fellas. Said, hey, now here's an album cover
shits insane and ruthless lol
Touch the devilish one...
you mean -> ...touched by the devilish one. It's a sample from TWIN PEAKS, the whole album is based on TWIN PEAKS.
The intro is Erik Satie I believe.
Totenstadt!
Satanic Art? Like it.
True genius, this album Is really well produce. Diversity, violence, grandiose ambience and the drums!!! I never got tired of listening since the first day it came out. Vocals would have been better with Someone like Satyr for certain parts of the album, completed by the mad Adrahn for certain parts
Satyr, really? For shame.
+Adronera but you do realize that this is dodheimsgard?
+Adronera I remember when this was released and in some interwiev they said that they wanted the EP to sound like a factory. Pretty much nailed it when it comes to the songs with guitar.
He sounds great on albums like thorns and rebel extravaganza, so try a bit harder you fucking noob.
Why does Satyr need to be on the album? Satyr is fine, but these vocals are exactly what was needed.
aggressor :D
creepy cover
I think the cover is Jesus after he died for our sins and he got to experience whats down there.
a mix betwen wolf´s lair abyss and spiritual black dimensions!!!!
kronet til konge is still my favorite
+John Lewis Their worst album
+John Lewis No offence meant, just like the later albums much more

+John Lewis So are you one of the puritanists and if so, then why?
Tommy from BTBAM brought me here
Too tame.
Unless a large enough dose of methamphetamine is applied to one's brain before hand.😄
Isso nem parece Black metal norueguês
Fraco
Whoever designed that album art needs firing.
