Metal Hammer celebrates new Dimmu Borgir with a box
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 22 October 2010
The current edition of Future Publishing’s Metal Hammer is another novelty issue. Or “event issue” to use their words. Following editions with metal and 3D covers, and another covered in blood (not real, presumably), the November issue comes in a box that talks.
Inside the box, as well as the magazine, you will find a hat and badge promoting the new album from symphonic black metal dudes Dimmu Borgir, ‘Abrahadabra’, and when you open the packaging the band’s frontman Shagrath speaks to you. It’s metal, he probably tells you to kill a chicken, right “fuck” on your knee, and then carefully sew a fabric badge onto your neat little canvas bag.
Metal Hammer Editor Alexander Milas told CMU: “Dimmu Borgir are an enigma – one of those bands who’ve risen from an underground scene in Norway to become a household name for metalheads. Their latest album is as breathtaking as it is ambitious, so what better way to toast their return than with something fittingly demonic?”
The Dimmu Borgir special edition of Metal Hammer is out now.
