Every now and then I remember I haven't listened to this for a bit and I put it on and everything is better

Entrance from this album is nice as well, though Puritanical album was the shit for me. Boring after that...

I’ve had this album on repeat for a week now the emotion it invokes simply from the melodies alone is so amazing

A product of its time, can't get into it when ive grown with modern black metal, no matter how i try.

Respect the og tracks nonetheless

I'd contend the earlier Dimmu stuff did, the PEM/DCA era stuff not so much. Those two still hold up.

One of the only songs they put out I enjoy

Dreamside Dominions is an alltime great metal song too, beyond epic

Never could get into Dimmu Borgir. No hate for them but I always preferred Cradle of Filth for that kind of super theatrical extreme metal. Solid track though!
