It is the band's first concept album. A site on the Nuclear Blast website was created for ''In Sorte Diaboli'', in which a new promotional photo can be seen and an audio sample can be heard. This would be the last album by Dimmu Borgir to feature ICS Vortex, Hellhammer and Mustis. ==Concept== ''In Sorte Diaboli'' is the band's first concept album, with a story located in medieval Europe. It is about a priest who begins to doubt his faith, and then ends up taking the place of the Antichrist. "There's this dude that works as a priest's assistant, and after a while he just discovers that he has nothing to do with Christianity", Silenoz says. "He just sort of has this awakening and realizes that he has different abilities and different powers and is leaning more to the dark side." The words "In Sorte Diaboli" are a repeated line in the song "The Chosen Legacy" and the words also appears towards the end of the song, "The Sinister Awakening". The conclusion of the story in the booklet implies that the story of ''In Sorte Diaboli'' is not yet finished, possibly hinting that Dimmu Borgir's next studio album will continue this concept. Additionally, in the "Making of ''In Sorte Diaboli''" special feature, Silenoz says that the concept of this album would continue into the next five albums, finishing a six-part series. However, this does not seem to be the case, as the next album, ''Abrahadabra'', is heavily influenced by Aleister Crowley's Thelema text ''The Book of the Law''. IGN named the album the Top Metal Album of 2007. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「In Sorte Diaboli」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
