Dimmu Borgir released their groundbreaking Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia, which just so happens to be my favorite album from the Norwegian symphonic black metallers, way back in 2001, and the band will celebrate this seminal album by releasing a brand-new sonic experience this October!
Set for release on October 28th via Nuclear Blast Records, Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia has been remixed and remastered using modern methods, to create an altogether more improved listening experience with contemporary production quality.
The album is now available to pre-order as a 3 LP Box, CD Digipak and digital release. The reissue also features Dust of Cold Memories, which features extensive bonus material, which includes the pre-production of Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia and instrumental rehearsals.
Offering up a taste of what's to come, Dimmu Borgir have released the reissue's version of the track "Blessings Upon The Throne Of Tyranny," which can be heard below.
Today, Dimmu Borgir are also releasing their album Northern Forces Over Wacken, which was originally available on the Forces of The Northern Night DVD, on a range of limited edition vinyl available via Nuclear Blast.
The 2LP release of Northern Forces Over Wacken is available in multiple color variants and can be ordered here.
Conceived in the heart of the Norwegian black metal scene in 1993, Dimmu Borgir quickly broke free from the boundaries of the genre, daring to combine a traditional raven black sound with opulent symphonic orchestration. Soon they turned into pioneers of their field, forging groundbreaking albums such as Enthrone Darkness Triumphant (1997), Spiritual Black Dimensions (1999), or Death Cult Armageddon (2003), invading the entire world with headline tours and eventually turning into the most influential act of their genre after nine full-length studio releases.
