Spiritual Black Dimensions is the fourth studio album by Norwegian symphonic black metal band Dimmu Borgir. It was released in 1999 by Nuclear Blast Records. A deluxe edition was released in 2004 with bonus material. There is also a digipak edition of this album which contains no bonus tracks. The digipak has reflective/holographic cover art. This release featured keyboardist Mustis and the clean vocals of ICS Vortex, as well as the departure of long-time drummer Tjodalv, guitarist Astennu, and bassist Nagash.
The album cover was part of the top 10 of Greatest Heavy Metal Album Covers by Blender magazine in 2006.[2] It was inspired by The Wounded Angel, a painting by a Finnish symbolist artist Hugo Simberg.
