Assuming you don't dig IPA...

I can't dig something I've never heard of.

[tɪmʏpɔrcɪr]

IPA... google it (gives answers to the most profound mysteries of human life and whatnot)

Nah, it's actually International Phonetic Alphabet which erases all pronunciation issues with a second...

I was wondering what the hell you were trying to say. I figured it had something to do with pronouncing Dimmu Borgir but couldn't tell for sure. Lol

What about Funebrarum?

I like IPA... had a couple last night! Odell ftw.

Axxanngabannaxaxagannababaillukuku, anyone?

Is Ensiferum just how it's spelled? What about Dimmu Borgir?

I've always pronounced it Insiferum, but this one chick at the record store said Ensifearum. Like ENsiFEARum.

And I'm sure I'm wrong here, with being English and all, but I just say Dimmoo Boarjeer...although not exactly as forced as that spelling makes it sound.

Yeah I always pronounced it Ensifearum and Dimmyou Borg-ear

Easy, it's Aku. All the letters between the A and the final "ku" are silent.

Doom:VS: doom-vee-es. I can't really think of an alternative here, it seems obvious

It's actually pronounced Doom Us.
I asked the guy a couple of years ago. It's not a V but a U, like you see it splled in ancient Rome.

Doom:VS (how to pronounce the "VS"?)

as Us, see my previous post.

Oh, there was no way for me to know this. Thanks for the clarification! Which leads me to conclude, that it'd be best to always ask band members if in doubt

And of course now all of a sudden the band name does make sense.

Holy shit now it makes some sense indeed? For years I was all "what's up with that weird name Doom versus... versus what?!?!"

Yeah, same for me
When he told me how to pronounce it I was like "how can I be so stpid as to not have guessed that?"

Written by Guest on 29.09.2011 at 12:02
Seriously?

I highly doubt it, but that's the way I'd pronounce it otherwise I'm spending 20 minutes trying to explain what band I'm talking about.

Yeah, that way will be helpful with "Paracoccidioidomicosisproctitissarcomucosis" as well.

Where the fuck are you finding these names/words? Lol, that's ridiculous; it sounds like some form of disease or infection, or a shit load of different ones strung together into a single word...

Thanks! I guessed it was something a bit like that. I assume it's a non-English word even though they're an American band.

How do you pronounce Witchrist?

It can't be "witch Christ" because there's only one "c". Is it "witch wrist"?

The bands name refers to a combination of several diseases:

-Coccidioidomycosis: disease which affects man and some animals and is caused by the spores of a certain fungus.
-Proctitis: inflammation of the rectum and anus.
-Sarcomatosis: condition characterized by sarcomatous tumors throughout the body.

You might want to check the cover of their album as well.

How you pronounce Drudkh? I always just pronounce it as "druid-ik" but that doesn't seem right.

droodkh. the "h" after the "k" just gives it a softer sound, as opposed to the ending of "fuck", which has a harsher FUK-kuh sound... in Drudkh it just sort of drops off.

I'm not familiar with this band so I can't say with 100% certainty but I'm pretty positive they mean for it to be "Witch-christ" because "Witch rist" just sounds stupid, lol. And "Witchchrist" doesn't look "cool" [or whatever] because of the double "ch" back to back, so I'm going to go with "Witch-christ".

They might be a gangsta Christian black metal band called Wit Christ.
