Dimmu Borgir release new cover of Deep Purple’s ‘Perfect Strangers’

DIMMU BORGIR have released a new song!

The new song, a cover of DEEP PURPLE‘s Perfect Strangers, is taken from the Norwegian black metal band’s upcoming new covers album, Inspiratio Profanus, which is scheduled to be released in December this year.

Speaking about the cover, guitarist Silenoz says, “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.”

Inspiratio Profanus is set for release on December 8th via Nuclear Blast Records. Pre-orders are available now and can be purchased here.
