The early incarnation was that of a raw \u0026amp; at often melodic black metal band, with their debut album also featuring Fenriz of Darkthrone on bass. In recent years, Dodheimsgard has become known for its eclectic musical ventures \u0026amp; poignant mood shifts, with a less chaotic, more considered approach compared to their earliest works.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollowing the 'Kronet Til Konge' \u0026amp; 'Monumental Possession' opuses, there was a shift in direction as demonstrated on 1998's 'Satanic Art' EP \u0026amp; by Dodheimsgard's third album, '666 International', Vicotnik had taken over a lot of the writing duties, with DHG's style becoming more technical yet ferocious black metal, with strong experimental ideas \u0026amp; industrial elements. Vicotnik's riffs were inspired by cult bands such as Thorns \u0026amp; perfectly entwined with Aldrahn's delightfully twisted lyrics \u0026amp; immense vocals to create something truly unique. In its '666 International' incarnation, DHG (as they were later to be known) featured a line-up of well-respected Norwegian musicians including Czral (Aura Noir, Ved Buens Ends, Virus), Apollyon (Aura Noir, Immortal), plus Mr Magic Logic (Fleurety) on keyboards, as the album was constructed over a period of time. All in all, '666 International' is rightly regarded as a highly influential masterpiece of avant-garde metal by many since its release in 1999.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis edition of '666 International' marks the album's 25th anniversary \u0026amp; is presented on limited red\/black marble vinyl.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54419494633857,"sku":"2472013","price":28.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/0801056816412.jpg?v=1750562268","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/2472013","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
