Dimmu Borgir – ‘Death Cult Armageddon’ CD

‘Death Cult Armageddon’ is the sixth studio album by Norwegian symphonic black metal band Dimmu Borgir. It has since sold over 100,000 copies in the United States of America and debuted on the Billboard 200 chart at number 169.

The song ‘Progenies of the Great Apocalypse’ was released as a single with an accompanying music video. This would also be the last album to have Nicholas Barker on drums.

The artwork within the album, done by Swiss artist Joachim Luetke, displays what appears to be an industrial factory, inside which the band members are living out their fantasies, some of which are similar to scenes seen in the music video for ‘Progenies of the Great Apocalypse.’ In addition, most of the songs have a common apocalyptic theme.
