Under Korpens Vinger


"Under Korpens Vinger" is a track by Norwegian symphonic black metal band Dimmu Borgir, featured on their debut studio album "For all tid." The 1997 edition was remastered and released through Nuclear Blast, expanding the original 1995 release. For electric guitarists, the track offers an entry point into early Dimmu Borgir's raw black metal style, featuring atmospheric riffing and the unconventional lineup where Tjodalv handled guitar duties rather than his later role as drummer.

  • On 'For all tid,' Tjodalv played guitar — a rare lineup swap worth studying when learning the album's riff style.
  • The 1997 remaster on Nuclear Blast added the full 'Inn i evighetens mørke' EP, giving guitarists extra material to explore.
  • Shagrath, later Dimmu Borgir's iconic vocalist, performed on drums for this debut — the band's only studio album with that arrangement.
Gibson Les Paul Standard
Guitar

Gibson Les Paul Standard

While Dimmu Borgir favors ESPs, the Les Paul's single-cutaway design mirrors their preferred body shape. Its thick body and sustain provide the weighty resonance that complements their drop-tuned, orchestral black metal riffs.

Gibson Les Paul Custom

The Les Paul Custom's premium construction and tonal characteristics align with Dimmu Borgir's need for clarity in dense symphonic arrangements. However, they prefer ESP's faster neck profiles for the rapid fretting demands of their technical compositions.

ESP Eclipse

ESP Eclipse

Silenoz's signature guitar of choice, the ESP Eclipse delivers the fast, slim neck and aggressive voice essential for Dimmu Borgir's symphonic black metal. Its set-neck construction and 24 frets enable the precision and speed required for their intricate riffing.

Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier

The Dual Rectifier's scooped, high-gain distortion with enhanced low-end thump defines Dimmu Borgir's modern studio and live tone since 'Puritanical Euphoric Misanthropia'. This amp's tight response handles their drop-tuned brutality while maintaining clarity against orchestral layers.

EMG 81
Pickup

EMG 81

The EMG 81's compressed, focused output cuts through Dimmu Borgir's dense symphonic arrangements with surgical precision. Its active preamp and tight high-gain response are critical for maintaining definition at extreme gain levels during their fast, palm-muted passages.

Pedal

ISP Decimator Noise Gate

Dimmu Borgir's extreme gain settings and rapid palm-muting stops demand the ISP Decimator's responsive noise gating. This pedal eliminates feedback and unwanted noise while preserving the attack and dynamics essential to their symphonic black metal brutality.
