Description: Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia marked a major evolution for Dimmu Borgir, the Norwegian band founded in Oslo in 1993. This album introduced a heavier use of orchestral arrangements, blending full symphonic scoring with extreme metal, and featured Nick Barker (ex-Cradle of Filth) on drums. Lyrically and sonically, it pushed black metal toward grand, cinematic territory, helping cement Dimmu Borgir as one of the most internationally successful acts in the genre. Its release on Nuclear Blast Records also symbolized black metal’s shift from underground circles into broader recognition worldwide.
