Sup guys, i was listening to dimmu borgir the other day with songs like "in death's embrace" and "progenies of the great apocalypse" and i love these songs particularly of the metal-orchestra or metal with piano type of atmosphere. I would like to know which other bands/songs have this type of feel and that kick ass?

thx in advance :dio:

Check out Old Man's Child. Their (and by "their" I mean "Galder's") latest two, "In Defiance Of Existance" and "Vermin" kick particaular amounts of ass. :dio:

I'll second the Hollenthon reccomendation. Fantastic stuff there, very folky as well.

Also a little known BM band called Profanium, they use violens, cellos, and piano very heavily in their music.

Hollenthon was very good, I'll third it.

But basically the answer to your question was Therion.
