"This is a great Live E.P. by one of my favorite bands.The sound quality is great the performances are unbelievable.A must for any fan.The only downside is the shaped disc it looks cool but you can't play it in your stereo or car.So you can only play it in your discman.But other than that its a great buy.Hail Dimmu Borgir!!"

Nice Little Collectible

"Alive in Torment is a nice little collectible from one of the best and most popular black metal bands, Dimmu Borgir. There's a pretty good career overview for an EP of this size with tracks from the last three full length albums, a key track or two from each. The production is in your face. You can feel the heaviness of the guitars, the ruthless kit pummels from Nick and the majestic keyboard touches. Vortex's voice doesn't hold up that great on this recording, but it sounded just like the CD when I saw them live in 2001. Shagrath is a good showman. What would've been better is a full-length live album. This recording of live material doesn't do a highly visual live band like Dimmu Borgir justice. But, it is a nice little addition to any fan's collection. The cd itself is shaped like a skull and should play in most personal cd players. Get it before it stops getting pressed."
