Dimmu Borgir are gearing up for their upcoming cover album, Inspiratio Profanus, out December 8th via Nuclear Blast Records. Today (9th), these Norwegian symphonic black metal masters have shared a cover song of Deep Purple’s “Perfect Strangers.” 

Silenoz comments:

“The idea of doing Perfect Strangers came about quite a while before we actually got around to recording it. It’s a known song by a very well-known band that has influenced many to pick up an instrument. I mean, is there anyone who doesn’t like Deep Purple?! We incorporated our little twist to it while at the same time wanted to stay close to the original. But perhaps it is the more obvious aspects that come to mind when hearing it; the integration between the main musical elements that we also made use of since the beginning like keyboards and guitars.”
