Susperia
Susperia is a Norwegian thrash metal band formed in October 1998 by Tjodalv and Cyrus. The band was originally named Seven Sins, but since there was another band with that name they changed it to the title of the horror film ''Suspiria'', changing the spelling to avoid a clash with Suspiria, a gothic rock band that also took its name from the film. History Susperia was started by Tjodalv (Dimmu Borgir, Old Man's Child) and Cyrus (Satyricon, Old Man's Child) in October 1998. After Tjodalv left Dimmu Borgir in the middle of March 1999, he started to concentrate fully on Susperia together with old-time friend Cyrus. At Wacken Open Air Festival in 1999, Tjodalv met with singer Athera (Vanaheim), who joined the band subsequently, followed by bass player Memnock (Old Man's Child, Vanaheim) and guitarist Elvorn. They recorded a demo, '' Illusions of Evil'', in December 1999 at Pitfire Studio outside Oslo, which was mixed and mastered by L. Argedick. Synthesizer and piano parts wer ...

Old Man's Child
Old Man's Child is a Norwegian black metal band originating from the city of Oslo. The band was founded by Galder (formerly known as Grusom; birth name: Thomas Rune Andersen), who is the sole permanent member of the group. History Old Man's Child was officially founded in 1993, but its roots trace back to 1989 when Galder, Jardar, and Tjodalv formed a death/ thrash band called ''Requiem''. They initially performed covers of songs by Slayer and Metallica, later releasing a demo album in 1990. "Requiem" dissolved in 1992. In 1996, after releasing their first full-length album, Born of the Flickering, they signed with Century Media. Following the releases of The Pagan Prosperity and Ill-Natured Spiritual Invasion through Century Media, the band embarked on one of their rare tours. Old Man's Child has infrequently toured due to constant line-up changes over the years. In 2000, Galder joined Dimmu Borgir, but he continued to work with Old Man's Child. Over the years, the band ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

For All Tid
''For all tid'' ( Norwegian: "For All Time") is the debut studio album by Norwegian symphonic black metal band Dimmu Borgir. It was released in 1995 through No Colours. It was remastered and re-released in 1997 through their new label Nuclear Blast with the front cover art in full color and the entire '' Inn i evighetens mørke'' EP added. It is the band's only studio album on which Shagrath is on drums, Tjodalv on guitar and Silenoz on vocals. The artwork displayed on the front cover of the album is inspired by Gustave Doré's illustration of Camelot from ''Idylls of the King''. Track listing Critical reception In their favourable review of the album, AllMusic wrote, "The production is awful, boasting thin and sharp guitars, muted drumming and echoing vocals that sound like what it might have been like to stand outside of their rehearsal hall. But somehow the songs manage to overcome the production, offering a somewhat beautiful (albeit warped) view of heavy meta ...

Spiritual Black Dimensions
''Spiritual Black Dimensions'' is the fourth studio album by Norwegian symphonic black metal band Dimmu Borgir. It was released in 1999 by Nuclear Blast Records. It is a first release featuring keyboardist Mustis and the clean vocals of ICS Vortex, and the last one with long-time drummer Tjodalv, guitarist Astennu, and bassist Nagash. The album marks major compositional and stylistic shift from romantic influences of their previous albums to more sinister and macabre sound. In terms of production, it is a second consecutive full-length Dimmu Borgir album recorded and produced in Abyss Studio, Sweden by Peter Tägtgren. According to the band, they faced difficulties when mixing the record due too many recorded layers, hence two different versions of the album were mixed in the studio. Eventually the second one was released. During the actual recording session, Astennu also recorded Mirrored Hate Painting, a second album of his side project Carpe Tenebrum with Nagash on vocals in ...
