November 7, 2008, 16 years ago
DIMMU BORGIR guitarist Silenoz spoke to Metal-rules.com about the follow-up to In Sorte Diaboli and whether the band will be utilizing Hellhammer (MAYHEM) as a session drummer.
"I mean we keep all doors open but right now we have such a good chemistry," says Silenoz, "both personally and musically with Darek ("Daray" Brzozowzski) who played with VADER. It would sure surprise me a lot if he’s not playing on the new album. He’s doing such a great job and he fits really, really well into the musical wide range style of Dimmu. I would probably say that he will be the one that will play on the next album. It would surprise me a lot if he wouldn’t."Metal-rules.com: You've always been very fortunate to have some of metal's most talented drummers at your disposal; how would you rank Darek against the others?
Silenoz: "I would say that he is the most steady and consistent drummer I’ve ever played with no matter what. He’s extremely reliable, hard working, determined and he really, really pushes himself, you know? Even if he plays a really killer show and the rest of us has nothing to complain about he still is not happy. It’s not good enough. That’s the attitude we need, you know? After all, the drummer is the engine in the band and you won’t get anywhere if you only have oil and gas…you need the engine to work too…so… he’s awesome."
