Dimmu Borgiris a Symphonic/Melodic Black Metal band from Norway. "Dimmu Borgir" means "Misty Castle/Citadel" or "Dark Fortress" in Icelandic, and it comes from some volcanic formations on Iceland: "The Dimmuborgir". Legend holds that this type of lava is a gateway straight to hell. Shagrath has said in an interview that The Dimmuborgir actually comes from the citadels of Scotland. Dimmu Borgir was formed in 1993 by the trio of Shagrath, Silenoz, and Tjodalv (the first two have remained the leaders of the band, while Tjodalv recently left to form Susperia).

Chaos Without Prophecy Lyrics
Dimmu Borgir
The quest for Azunda hath drown near
The young king, the chaos he brings
With iron grip's sword, chants come forth
The child of dark is he
The prophecy, chaos not near
In chaos, prophecies begone
This child of dark, hath foreseen
He makes its own destiny
The magic he creates is from his will
The magic of Azunda, he shall receive
Iron grip's sword guides his path
To the place which is no more
The journey to this place is creation
In this creation, he shall be
Living for himself and his destiny
In his path, lies of the prophecies
In his mind he sees another
Who wishes to receive, Azunda
He sees light within in he's enemy
And laughs at the prophecy
His will and his word is his sorcery
He is waiting for thee
To put an end to this prophecy
Azunda, give your power to me
The child of dark has found thee
And now must destroy, evil thee
Iron grip's sword has gone through thee
Now, Azunda is mine for all to see
The king's task has been complete
The chaos has begun for all to see
