Emperor - The Wanderer

[panmitelmetal]

How many memories with this song!!!

[dringles]

A true masterpiece!

[DementedDollEE]

My ringtone :•)

[SamritpalSingh]

This is the only Emperor tune I actually like. Not an Emperor fan, but love this one.

[komornik797]

The best outro ever!

[DarkRetroFan64]

Someone could add vocals and make this song sound like a DSBM song if they wanted to.

[Roflzmahwoflz]

Emperors best song. These chords are incredibly awesome.

[MrWormlock]

The Gates of the Night are being opened

[forcefeddeath]

I hate when people put lyrics to this song. Leave it be! Its beautiful how it is.....

[Bohnenfantruck]

the title fits the song so perfectly !

[chadwardennz]

I feel like making lyrics for this song

[luk1fer666]

@chadwardennz Do it, others have an I do

[AbdullahKhaleeji7]

Nice song, good feeling to it. Sounds kind of like Dimmu Borgir's Broderskapets Ring mixed with Perfection or Vanity :p

[dmh091]

This is one of the songs Samoth wrote.

[MrsSaithSatan]

This is absolutely beautiful. Amazingly perfect Instrumental Piece, by far.

Just so mysterious and it really does make you wonder..

Emperor \m/!

[formigal8]

I LOVE IS SOUND

[harveydeadman]

this song popped up in a playlist I had going from my library. I forgot how amazing their music is.

[luigi1456]

fantastic

[0rphaned]

Beautiful.

[Creationist33]

When I listening to this... I remember my journeys... like in a Lord of the Rings

[GOFFYTIME]

I prefer instrumental Emperor. Not a big fan of the vocals.

[patrickthemexicant]

@GOFFYTIME go home

[Zodist]

@GOFFYTIME I agree with ya.I only like the mini and 1st album.Doom and Gloom.

[MrsSaithSatan]

@GOFFYTIME As if, his vocals are beautiful.

Listen to Thus Spake The Night Spirit or Inno a Satana, you don't like what you're hearing? He is amazing, and you know why you probably don't like his Vocals .. It's because his original. Name me one vocalist that sounds like him and I guarantee you, you won't or even so, very fucking few people will have it.

His original and so is the band in general,

[FinnishMisanthrope]

@GOFFYTIME Eventually you'll be mocking clean vocals and only listening to black metal.

[tvangeste92]

A long and hard walk through the cosmic times

on a desolate path called “myself”, and there’s no ending, no lights to see my way.

that words came to when I was listening this song, just perfect!

[OpethToolMetallica]

Props to Samoth for writing this song!

[detnyericket]

Beautiful, simply beautiful.

[xasthurhead]

Emperor is so unique with their music. The dark, powerful and deep sound never gets boring.

[chenierchenier]

i can't find the CD in a shop..... omg where i can get this music on cd?!?!?

[NocturneKing]

@chenierchenier Try Amazon.com they should have it \m/

[ichiro718]

the tabs 4 this song is so strange..will have fun learnin it lol

[EmperorMato]

pure beauty, my beloved Emperor!

[dmh091]

This is one of the few songs that Ihsahn did NOT write

[AK4769er]

My soul just wonders from my body from this song.

[FatherOvGore]

Love this song hail Black Metal! \m/

[Possesssed666]

Needless to say, one can not call thyself a fan of black metal without owning this album.

[THEMGOROTH75]

Thus spoke EMPEROR!!!!

[commanderg7650]

man this song is so powerful its like an epic adventure everytime i listen to it

[luk1fer666]

@commanderg7650 Fucking Oath can;t agree more. \m/ Everytime

[High9231]

@commanderg7650 "epic adventure" is fantastic choice of words!

[commanderg7650]

@High9231 lol thats what it felt like for me haha this song never gets old

[nodeterin]

Wacken 2010 with Ihsahn.

[dodzy50]

@nodeterin same here! :D

[nightspirits]

if you listen carefully to the song, you can listen to the lyrics! is hidden in the song! really! I found an audio program!

[m3rcuryd3ath]

I second dissection, probably my favorite band.

[pikewerfer]

You would call Moonspell Black Metal? Hmmm.... cannot help but disagree...

[DeathMetalAngel123]

What about Burzum? Wait, is he even from Sweden? Oh well, he has some great bm albums (until he went all ambient and gay)

[maniacablator]

no... he is from Norway and their ambient albums arent gay!

[DeathMetalAngel123]

Okay, sorry. I guess that "gay" wasn't the right word...the ambient albums...well, I just don't like them and that is my own personal opinion. There! Is that better?

[chinaownsusa]

Burzum is from Norway. And his last two albums were made while in prison; pretty good ambient, consideing his position.

[iamerror1169]

Powerful

[illnathruleZ]

norewegian black metal is the best idd

but i do also like german black metal :)

[6kruk6]

This is masterpiece but PURE blasphemy comes from POLAND! GRAVELAND (black) - BEHEMOTH (black-death) - VADER (death)! HAIL TRUE EVIL METAL!

[bleueyeddevl]

Not to mention Gontyna Kry or Fullmoon.

[metalguy6]

i like the swedish and norwegian stuff but its hard to compare them because the swedish stuff is blackened death not just black metal

[demoniclord91367]

Well to me since Burzum and Emperor exist id say Norewegian Black metal is by far the best you can fine but i gotta say Dissection is a good quality swedish band if you agree with me

[AlexDIIM]

damn...This melody is awesome. I think it could be a really good soundtrack for a kickass movie.

[TenerNoxFungus]

I wish this could last for ever and ever...

[dmguitarist99]

I know man, I wish they kept it going for like a 10 minute instrumental epic

[RaenYrtham]

@TenerNoxFungus I don't wish that this could last forever... If you wish that, it will eventually come to an end. Instead, I wish I could last forever, that way I could listen to this music eternally, as with everything this life and this planet/universe has to offer, every bad and good experience (this music is a tremendous one - fuel for your mind, to travel mentally across space and time). That is to live. As I normally say: "To have scars, is to live".

[Jyotinanda108]

EPIC!!!

[Vektruscen]

This has to be my favorite Emperor song, it's a fantastic dark piece of music.

[WishingBones]

Oky Docky

[kaalilulli]

after hearing this piece ,i imagine that it is that dark night ,when satan was ousted from heaven,his flight to world in dark heavy rain with lighting,all the trees swaying in gusts of winds,and he entering the earth atmosphere in that rain with dripping wet wings.with all the malign intentions against man kind,if u all guys realy want to increase your gloom and bleak pleasure of this number plz refer to illustrations by master gustave dore,u will love it then.

[Svafnir666]

Thank you very, very much for your interpretation! If you listen to the music with the spirit of this "incident" in mind, it really adds a lot to the atmosphere. Thank you for that!... G. Dore really was a master, I also like his additions to Dante very much.

[creepsomber]

This is one of the darkest, saddest, most powerful pieces of musical genius I've ever encountered.

[Ifritowner]

A hauntingly beautiful song. Badass.

[cg476215]

awesome 5/5 check out aflog "a fuckload of ghosts

[dawwwood]

listen to opeth, my freind, you will forget this track.

[Silenoz1991]

name a song that can be compared to this please, i know opeth, but no songs. i dont know where i should start listening to...

[dawwwood]

listen to black rose immortal part by opeth.

[ascoughc]

anyone know of any other bands that do decent instrumentals like this

[gorgorothpa]

some of drudkhs instrumental stuff is kind of similar

"only the wind remembers my name" and "ukranian insurgency army"

[Moufisto]

OH and Sikth too :P they got some good instrumentals from what i recall..

(response to ascoughc)

[Kriati]

Those bands suck, enough said.

[sokaris666]

lol too true

[PissSniffer]

Heh. Everyone has the right to their opinions.

And yes, everyone has the right to judge. LOL

[erkkijumalauta]

AWESOME!! 5/5 indeed!!

[becas2007]

the best blackmetal has countdown is time, but for all the centuries they will remain in my black heart...all hail

[dawwwood]

any new album by emperor?

[mediasharesuite]

Like it or not, Emperor has no comparison. They are in a league of their own. Emperor is true black metal !!

In Terrorizer's 100th issue Emperor was listed as the 15th most important band of ALL TIMES, surpassing any other black metal band. Need we say more?!

[stormvit]

i definitly agree with you. Emperor i on their own in the genres of music. And they are the biggest source for the second wave of black metal. Emperor will always be known as the greatest of them all.

The best Black metal band of all time

[Moufisto]

What of Cradle then? lol

[WishingBones]

cradle is shit for 13 years old girls

they got nothing with music not to talk about black metal

check : mayhem ,satyricon ,enslaved , arcrturus , abigor ,borknagar ,dark throne,

dissection , dismal euphony

listen to real black metal and not band that aim for kids as there audience but bands that dont give a shit and playing from there souls

[nerizor]

Arcturus was way better after their black metal period : >

And besides, there is more to black metal than the norwegian stuff. If chaos is too.. chaotic for you, you should check out Swedish black metal. Dissection, Naglfar, Shining and so on; is much more melodic and generally more musically talented than the traditional norwegian black metal that came in the '90s : >

[WishingBones]

lol

in my comment i said dissection :)

actually i like Arcturus black metal albums better then there new style

[demoniclord91367]

Norewegian Black metal is the best i think Sweden is second. I heard a Norewgian vs Swedish and Noreway had all the good sounding bands its fact

[sodomisticthrash]

but Sweden kick's everybody's ass in death metal :D

[demoniclord91367]

Yeah probably i dont like death metal as much anymore the rifts and guitareing sound the same too much and alotve the bands these days are generic

[Behemet87]

Dark,mysterious, breath taking,

soul enhancing melody,hevenly notes.

Infinetly beautiful!!.

[killerdan56]

nothing heavenly about this track, darkness ascends.

[JoseSUPRA2JZ]

[Silenoz1991]

[BalzacPunk666]

I like how they create a nice music and add a dark atmosphere I think its very good 5/5

[Asleeaslee]

[6kruk6]

Monumental hymn of pure darkness!!!

[IvanSorath]

[Skogfader]

This song is the best of that album IMO, written by Samoth alone.

[Metalnor]

Great song !

[Varibyss13]

This song has such a divine melody and captures your soul gliding it in pools of imagination.

[KingofGamesLumento]

Wow!!!this song is like so nice and somehow soothing in my opinion. Just close ur eyes when you listen to this song. Listen to it carefully and let this beautiful,cold,and soothing melody flow within you.

[punky345]

[XDemoniumX]

[nrik666]
