Look up videos of progenies of the great apocalypse live 2010. I hear vortex but we all know he is not there. On top of that they play that womans part from gateways over the PA. If I want to listen to a cd I'll stay home and do it
The Woman's part from Gateways is Vortex, they altered his voice.
You saw that too? Yea, that kinda pissed me off, but eh, at least the "Female" Vocals sound fucking haunting on the song.
As far as playing his voice over the PA, it kinda sucks, but some bands don't have the option. When I saw BMTH, they played Light's part in Crucify Me over the P.A. as well as the choir chanting part. Unless they literally brought Lights and a fucking choir on tour with them, they don't have much of an option, so it didn't bother me too much.
I was wondering why the fuck I was seeing the skull cover around. I don't like the new version at all, the original was a lot cooler and plus the "Gateways" video is now off. They have the mask in that video and now it's no longer on the cover it just seems weird. It looks like shit.
just saw this on blabbermouth When asked about DIMMU BORGIR's recent announcement that future pressings of its latest album, "Abrahadabra", would contain brand new artwork, Galder said, "We had some problems with the guy making the skull — we had some copyright stuff — so we had to change it. . . There wasn't really that big of a difference; I mean, the version is a bit more brutal than the earlier version."
DIMMU BORGIR's record label, Nuclear Blast, stated in a press release, "Art-wise, it's a subtle change and will IN NO WAY alter the musical content of this album. Moving forward, this new cover will grace all the different versions once the album is re-pressed, so the original pressing is now — you've got it — a collector's item! Again, it is ABSOLUTELY the same album musically with the same content. ONLY the artwork has changed."
i don't think it's more "brutal" than the original. it's just a skull and the other one had some weird mask on it that i'm sure not a lot of people have seen. but we've all seen skulls.

Dimmu needs to swallow their pride make amends with vortex and bring him back
