On a Friday night that will never be forgotten. I've never seen Temple that full, the show was sold out and even if I had watched some videos of the band performing live, I was not ready for what I was to witness. Dødheimsgard or shortly DHG is a band that you must see live to understand what I am talking about. I ranked them on my top 5 of my favourite live bands, I must totally see them again live sometime, somewhere in the world. It would be nice to see them again at Temple, Athens, as it's a lovely venue and the people working there are really nice, one of my favourite places in Athens, where I spend my nights even as a photographer or a client.

Starting with the song "Restoration of Justice" and with a traditional raw black metal stage presence that reminded the traditional Norwegian one. Surprisingly (positive surprise) due to the plethora of their songs they had enough stage time (about 50 minutes), enough for all of us to enjoy them. |

It was a last minute "Yes" (that I was accepted to photograph DHG that night and thank you for that experience) and I was so happy as there were no tickets left. Everything was gone. The venue was full of people and full of Vicotnik's performance, who crawled along the whole venue, jumped on the crowd, made intelligent crazy jokes, sang in our faces, screamed in my face, microphone stands falling, chaos, I felt like I was in my natural habitat. The rest of the band joining the chaos and most importantly the music was good.
The Norwegians were not alone that night on stage as they had some guests that enriched the ritual. With some help of Pulsar 1081 (ambient/electro), the Djs, as we called them playfully and Irini Papadopoulou (vocalist of Absinthe Green) the stage turned into a metal orchestra.
DHG played songs from multiple albums, from the first,the second,the one hundredth. I have also taken a photo of the setlist for you, it can be found below. You are welcome.
Amazing DHG hope to see you again soon, lovely Temple Athens, I'll be seeing you very soon for sure.
Happy New Year everyone and don't forget support the Artists!
I hope everyone got many many presents from Satan..
. Hmhm... Santa!
