Me too.

Simen "I.C.S Vortex" Hestnaes never fails.

At this point Dimmu was like a Dream Team 🏀🤘

I.C.S Vortex (Simen Hæstnes, the bassist and clean vocalist) is...well.. amazing. For a little better demonstration of his vocal abilities, i suggest "Progenies of the Great Apocalypse", also from Ozzfest 2004. Or "Borknagar - Colossus" (studio version). Or if you want to go all out there, we have "Arcturus - The Chaos Path" (live Shipwrecked in Oslo 2006).

Dimmu were so much better with Vortex, Barker and Mustis in it.

One of the greatest metal songs, from one of the obvious Greatest Black Metal Albums ever.

Dimmu Borgir - The Insight and the Catharsis have a clean voice too. Try it.

Honestly, I was gonna choose either Kings or Insight, and I went with Kings just because Puritanical is my favourite album of theirs, so personal bias. I wish they'd play Hybrid Stigmata live someday but with the crazy vocal effects I don't think they will unfortunately.

I love singing that last part in a car lol

I didn't go to that specific show, but one in another place that year. The line-up was quite diverse. I don't think everyone was into black metal, some were waiting for the other main stage performers. A lot of people were sitting down, but me and my friend were standing up among a lot of the people sitting down just head banging and totally into it. They were one of the main reasons we went. Vortex and Shagrath noticed us at some point during their set, I imagine we were easy to spot when a lot of people were sitting. They both pointed to us at different times and gave us the devil horns. :D It was such a badass show. We were just in high school at the time and they were huge idols of ours. It was my friend's first time even going to a show and I remember how excited he was that we were acknowledged.

Other reactors need to react to this gem. Thank you Wolf HunterZ for doing that❤️

HAHAHA! I used to work in a shop selling goth punk and metal clothes and accessories, and amongst many things, we sold studs in various sizes in loose weight. Some flimsy and made for fabrics, but most needed to be affixed by being screwed on. Many a metal head and punk rocker became like choldren in a candystore when they came to get things to decorate clothes, belts and boots. Was a fun time.

Vortex te hace volar la imaginación con esta obra maestra del Black Metal 💪⭐

The boots are covers and gauntlets. I think it's costume made one of a kind. If you follow them on insta, you can ask they, what it cost.

This was their peak, even though Nick isn't playing here. The creativity these guys had as a whole band was just incredible. Shagrath and Silenoz truned into douches and made everyone quit. Did have a chance to meet Vortex and Galdar at a show in Virginia. Seemed like really cool dudes.

My favorite Dimmu Borgir's song. Love when Vortex sings 🤘🎶

If you want more Simen "I.C.S Vortex" Hæstnes (The bass player/singer) you can check "Borknagar - Up north" clip from their last album !

I see that live years and years and still the best of the band.

Yeah !! These Ozzfest lives are the best ! Thanks for reacting to this :) During this Ozzfest 2004 while performing the Progenies of the great apocalypse, Vortex, the bassist, hurts himself somehow and then proceeds to rampage with blood all over his face... Brutal

In my opinion they peaked on Death Cult Armageddon. Their last album didn't really have anything on it that could hold my attention at all. I hold out hope with every new release but so far DCA stands for me as their greatest achievement.

@@TheJohannes44 That album was good too. Although i prefer Enthrone Darkness Thriumphant. In Sorte Diaboli was really really good too. And Eonian is really good too. Many songs on it are really good, but sure its not like the old Dimmu we fell in love with. But thats okay because its still fucking awesome. Just a little different.

Nice touch with Nor flag on bassist guitar🤗😎

You guys would enjoy the studio version even more . And that's Tony Laureano on the drums, known for his work with the brutal death metal band "Nile", picked up as a replacement for Nick Barker after Dimmu kicked him out back in 2003/2004.

If you liked the vocals performed by ICS Vortex, check out the song “colossus “ by the band Borknagar

BRUTAL!!!

I not so secretly despise how flipping genuine you both are.... I have TOURETTES like you would not believe ☝️ THAT BEING SAID.... IT DOES NOT make a peep whilst I watch your reactions.... Be flattered 🤘🤘🤘🤘

Progenies of the Great Apocalypse next

Old dimmu 🤘😍😍

So nice to see you guys react to bassist ICS Vortex´s singing. He is a tremendous musican. I agree with the previous comments, and love Dimmu Borgir with him and keyboardist Mustis. Their contribuition to the band's work and legacy is impressive, and most appreciated by the fans. You two already reacted to "Progenies Of The Great Apocalypse" and "The Serpentine Offering" live with the choir and orchestra. I would love to see you react to a version of any of those 2 songs, with ICS Vortex, either live or the official videos. I was mindblown when i first listened to him singing. The versions with the big choir are indeed quite impressive, but him singing his parts on his own, i still get chills every single time i hear it.

I believe starting 2000 or so, the whole band wore the spiked boots even in the album artwork, not just the shows

93 my first kontakt with Dimmu Borgir.... and for ever in my heart

Thanks guys, much appreciated! :) The guitars on the album are much louder and sharper, as well as the drums being much clearer (+ some vocal effects), so I recommend hearing the studio version in your free time, if you want. The whole album is incredible. Thanks again, and take care! ❤

This is the Dimmu I remember seeing live.. Specially here at Ozzefest.. though later on they did play a more intimidate setting (Smaller Venue) and.... all i gotta say is I Miss Votex being in Dimmu.. but I love Borknagar which Votex sings for...

Sucks Vortex isn't with them anymore. But he's definitely a king.

Yes, Im waiting on next Wolf Hunterz video, that you all have those boots ;)

Your reaction to the clean vocals was exactly the same as mine when i heard Dimmu the first time :D

Wow..need them to play Infront of my house for Halloween..💀🎤🎧🔊👍. Imagine that...🤟..great reaction guys ..keep safe and healthy 💖

As you put your finger into northern black metal pleeease don´t miss the mighty EMPEROR

Can we just pause and marvel a moment... at how they are all big northern metal dudes, but that beast on the bass, if memory serves, is about 6' 8" of superhuman awesomeness. Between his size, his God-like vocals and a unique live playing style that's at times almost frightening, his Stage Presence... is in a league of it's own. I understand a band has to be happy together and that requires many different things working right, but it's well nigh impossible for any old-school Dimmu fan to not miss him and the lineup they had then. Please, more old Dimmu with his cleans. I think nobody in metal can touch him at that.

i was at that concert! I was blown by the voice or vortex!!!!! had to look him up he had opera training at a young age! His voice tho!!!! damn!

I.C.S. Vortex has the voice of an angel, a fallen angel, but an angel nevertheless.

Indonesia 🇲🇨❤️ dimmu borgir Jos banget swaranya music gak da tamding

Vortex sempre vai ser o melhor vocal do Black metal, sério o que esse cara canta é fora de sério, very good vocal ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Ahhh...Ozzfest. This was the first time I saw DB live. Was hella sic. Glad I came across this reaction. 🤘🤘🤘 great job

ICS Vortex was my favorite part of Dimmu Borgir

Heavy Metal musicians are not evil!!! I hate the stereo types. We metal musicians/fans alike are the most loving and family orientated people out there!

i have to push the like putton again, it´s Dimmu Borgir FFS @/thisislove

amazing

Ah Dimmu! Nice.

Love these guys!

Piece means reloading your guns. Those lyrics really fit the bill.

Amazing performance

Love Suzy's cross shirt in the dimmu vid

Sadly this is them at Ozzfest in the States, in Europe, they have a full orchestra, and choir performing with them. 😞

I was there!!! so FUCKING AWESOME!!!!

ICS Vortex is aaawwwesomeee (the bassist/back up singer).

Did i just see a swinging keytar...? **mind blown**

Ei tambem adoro está parte que o baixista canta.

The clean vocals of Simen (Vortex) is seriously underappreciated by many fans of current Dimmu when tehy try to go back and listen to the old stuff. I did like Nagash when he replaced Simen in 99(?) though, who was originally from a band called Kovenant (with a K) not to be confused with Covenant (with a C), that is a very different band. Dimmu and Cradle were both notorious for always changing their lineup and even trading members between eachother in the 90s. The first time I heard this song was from my gf who was as big of a Dimmu fan as I was a COF fan. 😅 Getting to see them at Ozzfest was the highlight of my year! twice.

this song is so epic

I like the parte bass Sing.
