Introduction to my Diary

First on my Fashion Diary i want to tell how i became interested in music since music made me like the style and clothing that i find fashionable. My music life can be divided in to 2 sections, pre-enlightenment and enlightenment. Before 2007 i was not so heavily interested in music, some of my friends and my youngest brother introduced me to heavy metal music but it wasn't that interesting to me. I started to listen Dimmu Borgir a little since my youngest brother listened to it at that time and it was ok at most. Then November 2007 we heard that Dimmu Borgir was coming to Finland to perform in Helsinki and we decided to go see it since its good metal band. Me, my youngest brother and two of hes friends loaded our self's in a car and headed to Helsinki.

From the moment they started playing in there and i heard The Chosen Legacy song and all other they're material live, music wasn't the same anymore. A whole new world opened to my eyes and ears, my enlightenment. From next day, i completely changed over my clothing and style and iv been listening to music with whole new perspective.

Dimmu Borgir, my all time favorite band and savior. Music has never tasted the same after them so i dedicate this first part to them.

First this is the song that i heard live in Helsinki 2007 that really started the new era.

And next video is the one that i want to talk about in this first part. Gateways from the latest Dimmu Borgir album Abrahadabra.

The costumes and the coloring in this video are something that i find REALLY fascinating, since the usual scheme is dark and black. the costume and headset on the vocalist Shagrath is just unbelievable. Full long jacket/coat in white with all the detail in buttons, studs and strings makes it.. and the crown, that crown with tentacle like horns-> majestic combination with one of the best growling voices there is. This style is clearly something that you cant wear every day but that's not the point. The point is that in my eye this is fashion at its best, super unique style and creativity for someone that can wear it and make it look godlike. Look at him and tell me otherwise : D

This concludes my first part and i don't go on about other members of the band on the video since i have lot to say about them and also about other features and costumes in this video. Especially the "Gatekeeper" what ever he is with the mask that's shown in the beginning of the video. Enjoy my future babbling and weird taste of things. :>
