What a fucking awesome composer he is. True genius. As a former classic piano player myself, I can say that making a piano sound that dark and sinister takes a lot of creativity. What a shame that so many egos got in the way and ruined that band.

***** If you want a less mainstream option, yet interesting and very talented, check Hugo Sheppard. He was in a prog/goth band called To-Mera.

[@antioch4019]

Depends on what we are talking about, as a composer I feel Mustis beats Rudess, overall I feel Mustis has more "feeling" for it, playing wise Rudess might be faster doing his solos and following the song. Jens Johansson from Stratovarius is also seriously skilled at piano.

Well, it's not Mustis, but Arcturus comes very close to this piano style mixed with Simen's vocals and metal stuff. Especially on The Sham Mirrors (though it is Garm singing :)). Their other albums are even better, but TSM is the closest to that style. The newest album is the closest mix of Simen himself and this kind of style, but not quite like TSM.

@@hectortorres8188 His influence started in Spiritual black dimensions. Do you really think all those synth layers were Shagraths idea?

It has become uninspired. Dont get me wrong, I think ENTHRONE was one of their best albums (before Mustis) but Dimmu is way over their head with the standard Oyvind left them!

(have you heard those master pieces nexus polaris and animatronic?) Ha, no, those keyboards aren't by any means Mustis' ideas. Then we have "In sorte.." no orchestra, tired ideas, it sucks, is it also Mustis fault? no, he isn't responsible for anything... later they came with Abrahadabra, and it's better than in sorte, i would say, they managed things very well without those 2.

+mayra reyes I loved mustis' music very much, but I actually loved Abrahadabra. I really don't get why there's so much hate for that album. It's fucking magical in my humble opinion. The lyrical themes may be different,(less blunt satan worship, more focused on the concept of breaking the chains that religion holds on the world) and the operatic symphonic nature of it might have been taken to a whole new level (as compared with their older albums) but for me, that's a good thing. I love the evolution that each of their albums take from one to the next.

[@deadramaster]

They fired vortex for forgetting his instrument and going into a drunken rage smashing a glass on his forehead. One of them signed a copy of an album and went to auction it on ebay with just his signature out of greed. As for Mustis I here's a snippet from his statement regarding leaving the band: "address the fact that many songs written by me had not been registered properly under my name in their credits. Without naming every single track, let us just say that a good majority of albums like 'Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia' and 'In Sorte Diaobli' would have been vastly different had I not composed and created as much as I actually did,"

[@omarvaldez00]

persiuntimu emeilas Because he wanted to license his piano parts on every song in played in. In other words if he would have left/fired from the band Dimmu would not be able to use, sale music that he played in without his consent. It was a good thing that he was let go.

[@cdrfrost734]

He was just asking for more credit on his work....and they said he did almost nothing on the recordings....yeah right

[@Elintasokas]

Saying that he did almost nothing is obviously false because you can easily discern the style of Mustis in many older Dimmu Borgir songs. He clearly has a predilection for chord progressions based on the diminished scale, or progressions involving exclusively minor triads spaced out by minor thirds-the sort of gloomy sound featured in the video at 0:27. Most songs proven to have been composed by Mustis feature this characteristic which is prominent in a significant part of Mustis-era Dimmu Borgir music. After they fired Mustis, this characteristic virtually vanished from their music, and the music took a distinctly different direction, so we can infer that the aforementioned peculiarity was likely Mustis' compositional handprint in their songs. It's not concrete evidence, but it's plausible to say the least.

[@ToastedCigar]

@@Elintasokas Yup, this song is full of (double) chromatic mediants, and dramatic chord movements between I and bvii or i and II/bii, which gives the chorus a Phrygian-ish sound, at least to my ears. That's a definite Mustis style.

[@Garm87]

This is the most beautiful piece of music I've ever heard.

[@moisesaardaya]

Fucking beast, this homs is pure gold.

One of my favorite piece Thank you mustis..

А почему ранимого?

[@ДаринаРе]

@@thorns2485, Вы Мустиса видели в хрониках? Я про то, что в начале нулевых был снят фильм про Dimmu Borgir. Так вот: по-моему, члены группы и туса, в массе своей, жалкие говнари, что пьяные, что трезвые. А Мустис в любом агрегатном состоянии -- пирожочек сладенький. Я думаю, он простой парень с незаурядными способностями, который спился во имя искусства (ох уж эти финские корни...)

[@Fleurdelille9]

I can't stop listening to this song...Mustis is surely very talented.

[@Mitzury85]

Mustis!!! Please return!!!!!😕❤️

[@Sephiroth767]

The intro of this song always reminds me on a mix of the Batman theme from Danny Elfman and some old Final Fantasy song. The piano version makes this feeling even stronger.

[@ACosmicCastaway]

First mistake: kick Mustis Second mistake: kick Vortex Third mistake: kick Barker. That's the downfall of creativity from DB.

[@kaziglubey4455]

Absolute powerhouse rhythm section. The best really, and Vortex's voice as well, and Mustis composition, and Barker's blastbeasts, glad I got to see this incarnation live

Best display of piano playing skills I have ever seen or heard. This is up there with Mozart, Beethoven, and Bach

[@eddiemperor]

LMAO

[@antihero292]

@Jesse Bowles . Totally agree. Sadly even classic music is underground, can you imagine if a metal guy is playing it better ? The ''elite'' wont ever accept that he could be better than a mythic composer. Only metal fans see this i guess.. Hey look at the guy he must take drugs
