Dimmu Borgir uses the "pick three vaguely evil/"Satanic" sounding words and order them in a slightly logical yet still wholly nonsensical way" method of titling things. PURITANICAL EUPHORIC MISANTHROPIA!!!!

...and So The Night Became and Beyond The Wandering Moon are two different album titles, by the band Aeternus. You probably got confused because MalignParadigm said he prefers one over the other. Italics = album title.

i love ...and So The Night Became,don't think i've heard a so called black metal album that sounds like that one,vital and giant!!

[Vossyrus]

I've always considered Dimmu's approach to naming albums to be sort of in a manner where the words are meant to be symbolic, or representative of the album as opposed to simply forming a coherent title and with their own tradition of using three words. (Death Cult Armageddon, PEM, EDT ...etc)

To me Dimmu Borgir have'nt been a real BM band for ages,i lreally liked Enthrone Darkness Triumphant but...dunno would rather listen to a band like Therion than DB these days,they just don't have that true BM feeling at all IMO

[V.V.V.V.V.]

...and Therion does?

[sloughfegkillers]

Thats what i mean,i'd consider DB closer to what a band like Therion does or used to do than True Bm, thats in no way saying that DB are better than Therion cause they clearly are'nt,maybe they should invent a term like Lightweight Bm or something cause these bands like Dimmu Borgir and whatever should'nt be called BM anymore

it gets annoying thinking up things to call the theatrical rock band. let's move on

That's pretty much the worst thing I've ever fucking seen. Musically it's horrendous too.

To make it short: Yes.

But they aren't mass-appealing like DSO.
