Dimmu Borgir - Progenies of the Great Apocalypse cover

This is a great song from Death Cult Armageddon album (2003).

I found a marvelous cover. This version might sound awkward or funny but I consider it astonishing. Dan-Elias Brevig made an acapella version of this song.




I will post now the original videoclip of this Dimmu Borgir song. I might add that I find this clip very well produced. It shows some nudity and blood now and then, so I guess kids shouldn't watch this.



Lyrics:

The battle raged on and on
Fuelled by the venom of hatred for man
Consistently, without the eyes to see
By those who revel in sewer equally

We, the prosperity of the future seal
Cloaked by the thunders of the north wind
Born to capture the essence of
The trails of our kind

Zero tolerance must be issued forth
Behind the enemy's line
So it shall be written
And so it shall be done

(repeat 1st and 2nd verse)

Discover and conceive the secret wealth
And pass it unto your breed
Become your own congregation
Measure the sovereignty of it's invigoration

We, who not deny the animal of our nature
We, who yearn to preserve our liberation
We, who face darkness in our hearts with a solemn fire
We, who aspire to the truth and pursue it's strength

Are we not the undisputed prodigy of warfare
Fearing all the mediocrity that they possess
Should we not hunt the bastards down with our might
Reinforce and claim the throne that is rightfully ours

Consider the god we could be without the grace
Once and for all
Diminish the sub principle and leave it's toxic trace
Once and for all

I can't end this post without showing you very talented ex-Dimmu Borgir keyboardist Øyvind Johan Mustaparta (Mustis) playing Progenies of the Great Apocalypse on the piano:
