Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia

Product Information

Dimmu Borgir's eighth studio album, Abrahadabra, was released on 24 September 2010 in Germany, 27 September 2010 for the rest of Europe and 12 October 2010 in North America. [21] Silenoz explained that the growing periods of time between albums was because the band had stopped writing music while touring, which was affecting the quality of the music. He described the new album as having an "eerie and haunting feel to it", adding that the material is "epic", "primal", atmospheric and ambient. A promotional image released with the statement showed Shagrath returning to the keyboards. [22] The album features an ensemble orchestra, the Kringkastingsorkestret (the Norwegian Broadcasting Orchestra), as well as the Schola Cantorum choir, totaling more than 100 musicians and singers.

Some people label this as Dimmu Borgir's definite "sell-out" record, which may or may not be true; even setting that viewpoint aside, the music has taken a turn for the worst (again). I should probably start by saying that while this album is bad, it's not an absolute atrocity (hence the 49).

We’ve always been a band that have never asked for permission to do whatever we want to do. As an artist, it’s very important to think outside the box, to not have any limits – just go with the flow.” The song writing is pretty solid throughout, with the orchestration parts being highlights, surprisingly. Usually on these types of symphonic albums, they are poorly done, but here Mustis has clearly put a lot of thought into his arrangement and his work, and it clearly shows. It adds a level of depth to the album which I think is often over looked. The guitar riffs are good, sometimes even extraordinary. There are some fillers on this album (I'm looking at you "Puritania") but for the most part, it's all barrels loaded, no bullshit metal. "Absolute Sole Right" is a prime example of this.

The instruments on “Puritanical…” are phenomenal. Every element is at its peak, with exemplary sections in all the songs. There is an urgent energy on the album, and yet Dimmu seems to pull it off with ease, coming into their stride and not overdoing anything. Nothing feels overpowering, clearly Dimmu Borgir was already established at this stage, not having to try too hard, it all came naturally. They seem to have an air of superiority here, a confidence in their abilities.
