Emperor

Emperor, Faust was a cool guy. Killed a faggot. All was well. Varg brought Sammoth down for church burning, because Varg is a cunt. Ihsahn is the guy responsible for the direction in Prometheus. Beat him up. Best known for mixing the cruelly brutal and the strangely beautiful. Enjoy everything but Prometheus, if you enjoy that. KILL YOURSELF!

I could never get into this band. I tried listening to In the Nightshade Eclipse, but it was never any good to me, except for the cover art.

I like the demo, though, it's much better than their albums.

Im getting into their mid-era stuff as part of my black metal discovery quest. I was put off by listening to Prometheus.

What the hell did I say? Hate Prometheus, that is all it is good for. A hate target.

Yes, I know. This was before anyone told me it was a hate target. Hence the reason Im trying their other stuff.

Ah. Well their demos are really good, and Anthems is nice for chilling.

Emperor has some gems, but I couldn't ever really get into them.

I've listened to the ItNE album for years and I've concluded that Inno a Satana is the only song on there that I actually like. Black Wizards is okay too for the synths and vocals, reminds me of Metroid Prime. I haven't really tried their newer stuff.

I really like Emperor, one of the bands that first peaked my interest in Black Metal, finally got around to downloading some of their albums, I'd say currently In the Nightside Eclipse is my favorite.

Wrath of the Tyrant is their best. If anyone says otherwise, they're wrong.

Prometheus sucks the big one.

Ahem, excuse me titty monster but Cosmic Keys to My Chastity Belt or whatever its fucking called, homo mystical titles that mean nothing *incoherant mumbling*, is a really good song and way better than Inno and Wizard Hat And Robe anyday. I have a fucking fever, give me sympathy you stinky whore.

I am of the opinion that the Emperor EP is just as good, but those two are totally the peak of their careers. Except Samoth, Zyklon > Emperor.

The debut is my favorite, I like the production better.
