Dimmu Borgir- Stormblast (re-release)

Okay, here it is.  The reissue of Dimmu's second album Stormblast. Look, I LOVE Dimmu, they are my favorite "Black Metal" band, but seriously, this re-release was totally un-necessary. They try and say that this was there breakthrough album and needed some new justice, but truthfully this album kind of sucked the first time around. It wasn't there breakthrough album at all, Enthroned Darkness Triumphant was, and second they didn't do a good job at making it sound better. First off they should have re-recorded it in English if they really wanted to appeal to the masses, second the musicianship and production could have been a lot better.  Really there isn't much too say, this is the same thing they put out then, the only difference is this time around they give you a cool DVD and a clothe patch (which I sewed on my hoodie). So only waste your money if your a diehard fan if not, pick up Enthroned and bathe in the beauty which is that album.
