Are you crazy? It's maybe the fourth best Dimmu Borgir album! At MOST, it's the third best! The best is either Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia or Death Cult Armageddon. I used to say Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia was their best, but lately I lean more towards Death Cult Armageddon:
Clearly you've been getting high as fuck during lockdown you madman.
P.E.M, deathcult armageddon, For all Tid and Stormblast.

Also regarding production budget it's not like dimmu are an actual black metal band, they are a nuclear blast kerrang band now who are probably pretty high up the NB roster so they have some money to burn for video content.
More power to them though they have been clear on the fact since the late 90s that they wanted to be as famous as possible so they have done what they intended.
I also think ICS Vortex's vocals work best in Dimmu Borgir, which is one of the biggest reasons it's a shame he's no longer in the band. I mean, he sounds great in Borknagar, but I think his soaring epic vocals just work best in Dimmu's kind of riffage and orchestration.
When you put all the album titles together like that, they really are quite ridiculous. :lol: It's like they have a thesaurus of 3-word grVm phrases. :immortal:
I really wish they'd release a piano only version of Progenies but on a concert grand. There's a video of him playing it on youtube but its really low quality.
I saw them right after they released this and it was phenomenal, shame they kinda fizzled a bit since then though the stuff is still pretty solid. Devildriver, Unearth and Kataklysm also played so that show was just great in general though lol.
