  • Almost liked the first 30 seconds

  • I think I am going to puke now.

  • @brwnhornet59 Are you sick or something?

  • @401Nero Yup, every time I hear crap like this being worshiped and glorified.

  • @brwnhornet59 Then...Why goin' to a metal video? I mean, I sub your channel and am a great fan of your jazz videos, but wasn't really expecting this childish and condescendent behaviour from you. I think you are better than this.

  • @401Nero Yeah, your right. Went here expecting something different. Certain mentalities just piss me off. But that is why there are so many colors on the palate. I have a better message to convey than that of a condescending snot. Thanx for the reality check.

  • prometheus is diffrent and especially album but i like such experiments. Although the most athmospheric and mysticism album is ,,In the nightside Eclipse". I listening Emperor for 7 years, i am 22 years old.

    cheers!

  • the heavy parts are epic, but sadly something in the strings reminds me of "Rugrats"

  • I can't believe that I come to this page and the top rated comment isn't a sacrifice offering to Emperor for this masterpiece of a song...! Criminally underrated black metal.

  • Masterpiece

  • This song is just amazing.

  • 2:39 through 2:42 is orgasmic

  • I recently got into Emperor... 10 years too late :( but Ihsahn is coming out with a new album next year! Not Emperor

  • love this song...\m/

  • masterpiece...!

  • AND HE BEHELD THE RUINS, OF AN EMPIRE TORRRRRN APAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAART­!

  • 1:05 the moment the world was born ;D

  • Never have I heard bad song by Emperor. This is why they are epic. No argument, end of discussion.

  • There is no beat to this at all

  • @insyncelegant your clearly tone deaf

  • Fortunately, just about everyone in the original black metal scene understood that the point of the movement was to NOT follow trends; it was a statement of individualism, a statement that flies right over the heads of "kvlt" black metal fans.

  • gotta love the intro

  • Here's the problem with a lot (not all!) metal-heads: they are incredibly stupid and narrow minded about genres and all that shit.

    However, metal will always rule - I mean, just listen to it. No matter how stupid some of the fans are. Emporer is about as good as it gets. Phenomenal, every record. This post is just about all the discussions about genre, what real metal is, rejecting certain styles, arguing, all that crap.Who cares? Listen to what you like and STFU

  • @leakycauldron1

    Couldn't agree more

    

  • No, the genre is dying because of egotistical and closed minded fucks who refuse to legitimately talented artists because they aren't "kvlt" because they didn't record their album on an answering machine.

  • @Jayuhksawn Lol. I've been on a soapbox saying the same fucking thing for years.

  • @Jayuhksawn agreed, this seems to be a trend with black metalheads, they shun anything that isn't "evil" or "kvlt", pure close mindedness in my opinion

  • @Jayuhksawn it will never die because its proved that nothing can stop it..... in the 40's when rock music was starting lots of people called it the devil's music and they wanted it gone but nothing stopped it then it slowly evolved into metal and that was called the devil's music and people wanted it gone but it prevailed and it's split into different genres so metal has proved it's an unstoppable force and will never ever die

  • @Jayuhksawn bands like Deathspell Omega and Keep of Kalessin?

  • Fucking Masterpiece.

  • Extract of epic.

  • PERFECT

    

  • Am I the only person who thinks this was their best album?

  • this was one of the first songs i heard by emperor is there any other songs that are as good s this one?

  • @ronaldmcdonald333 chhhhhh!! listen to the album IN THE NIGHTSIDE ECLIPSE fukking awseome inno a satana,,,, cosmic keys to my creation and times!! kik ass

  • Holy shit I forgot how fucking sweet this song is. Just realised they used 7-strings.

  • @6Vital6Remains6 Ihsahn uses 8 strings now.

  • @Spermwhales93 I meant on this album. And when I said they, I meant Emperor - Isahn may use an 8 string but considering there is no Emperor anymore...Emperor don't use 8 strings, Isahn does.

  • TE_MA_ZO_MI_TI_KO

  • FUCK YESSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • So epic chorus!

  • This holy song is after the audio book, "creative dreaming", in my mp3.. lol..

  • i wanna play Castlevania now.

  • For FUCK's sakes. Who gives a damn about genres? I'm a christian. Nope obviously not the best example of one but one just the same. I love Emperor. Dont give a crap about their past, present or their beliefs. They are, were and stil can be the most kickass metal band ever. Honestly dont care. Great music is great music. Regardless.

  • You're a fucking idiot

  • @steelinferno88 How am I a fucking idiot?

  • A "christian" listening to Black Metal? That's like a jew jerking off to Holocaust porn

  • @steelinferno88 to each his own. Music is music to me.

  • @BlackMesaSecurity Exactly. Whatever the agenda of the creator is, we can all enjoy good music.

  • @steelinferno88

    zzzzzzzzzzz

  • @steelinferno88 im a christian and i listen AND play blackmetal enough with the whole metal steryo types? its killing our gerne,

  • Comment removed

  • @steelinferno88  I'm a christian and I listen to a lot of old school black metal like Burzum, Enslaved and Emperor. And since you brought the whole jews and Holocaust thing, did you know that the founder of the SS was a jew. :)

  • Hail Hail to mighty EMPEROR !!!!

  • I remember hearing this when I was perhaps 15. I imagined it would sound poser-ish in the future, but I loved it at the time.  Now that I'm 23 it still straight-up amazes me. Fantastic music.

  • @ItzizAustin its a harpsichord

  • This song is just pure purrrfection

  • Amazing!!!!

  • What the fuck a difference. Theres no definition about "Black metal always is about satanism". Something like this doesn't exist.

  • @ItzizAustin It's called a harpsichord. c:

  • if everyone listent to thiz the world would be 1 big moshpit :O me like

  • black metal can be satanist, pagan, christian or atheist, the sound will be the same

  • I don't know why I haven't listened to Emperor before this. Horns up!

  • Comment removed

  • @DeVin0r , no Pop "Fan" will ever like Pop as a Metal fan loves metal .

    Pop "Fans" just listen to a few songs in the charts , but they are not really interested into their music , Metal fans buy cds , maybe even a whole discographie, and listen to them ,they try to learn to play guitar or drums etc. . All in All metal rules and you should not care if shit like Pop gets more views than Metal .

  • Why Tell Me Why????????

    Why A Band Like Emperor has only 13k views???

    It really pisses me off.And u know why??

    Because ihsahn is a mastermind and he sits down to a studio and writes he's own music with all his passion and heart. And other pop-rap-related artists are doing nothing and all the world "loves" them.......

  • @DeVin0r Completely agree.

  • Hail Emperor \M/

  • @ItzizAustin sounds... the same.

  • It's been about 4 years since I've listened to this Emperor's album and it fucking sounds badass, better than In the nightside eclypse, although very different. Emperor rules!!!

  • i dont give a fuck about the lyrics half the time i cant understand them anyway. its a love for the music. the only way i can decribe it is it makes me feel like i want to be surrounded by darkness

  • I'm afraid Isahn is a satanist. In the book Lords Of Chaos, Isahn is interviewed and he openly discusses his satanism, Samoth also served prison time for church burning and of course original drummer Faust was imprisoned for murdering a homosexual who approached him. Isahn's satanism is very much in the Lavey school. He doesn't believe in the devil the way Euronymous did, his beliefs came directly from the bible.

  • At the end, it was Ihsahn's band. Samoth and Trym concentrated on Zyklon, then Ihsahn would focus on Peccatum.

  • pretty good. i hate black metal, but these guys seem down to earth.

    a bit of help please... i personally am a protestant. metal is my life, but i hate satanic bands. is emperor a satanic band??

  • It doesn't matter. Chances are, the majority of metal bands you listen to are at least anti-Christian, and there's nothing wrong with that. If you have your faith, cool, but liking a Satanic band is a very shallow emotion in comparison to actually being Satanic. I personally will listen to anything that sounds good to me... and that's the kind of mentality you need to have about music, because almost no one really has a conservative attitude.

  • Don't worry im protestant also and pretty much most of there songs are not satanic at all. There are a select few which are barely satanic. I know this song and this album is 100% non satanic for sure.

  • ah thankyou. this album is the finest piece of black metal i have ever heard.

  • This is why i don't like christians, you let your god control your life.. Just fuck it.. Don't let anything control you, and least of all not some fantasy friend.

  • are you really not going to listen to a band just because they have satanic lyrics? lyrics in metal, for the most part, dont even matter. its supposed to be about the music. the atmosphere it sets. to avoid listening to a fantastic band like emperor over conflicting beliefs provided by the lyrics is retarded.

    but if you're oh so concerned about your imaginary friend sending you to hell, check out Antestor. Christian black metal. weird aint it?

  • christian black metal is just terrible.

    and yes, lyrics do matter you retard. the lyrics are one of the most important bits. they shape a bands image, and determine almost the style of music that they play to some extent

  • i'm a retard for having a seperate view of music? riiiight.. makes sense..

    the christian black metal comment was meant to be a joke, but i guess some people are just too thick.

  • and, let me guess that you're one of the many that call amon amarth viking metal, as you put it "they shape a bands image, and determine almost the style of music they play to some extent".

  • i think you will find that amon amarth is one of my favourite bands, and they perform melodic death metal.

  • @greyfox92

    Lyrics are highly important in (good) metal. Check out Pain of Salvation's... amazing lyrics and vocals, and I have to say I probably wouldn't enjoy their music as much if their lyrics weren't so great.

    That said, to avoid listening to a band just because of their lyrics isn't the wisest thing to do, but if it's not your sort of music to begin with, then why care? That's my stance here - Ihsahn's solo stuff is great, but I'm not too into black metal in general, save for Agalloch.

  • i agree in good metal it is. i love emperor, but black metal is not about lyrics. its about the atmosphere. at least, for the most part.

    there are some metal bands that have absolutely amazing lyrics, opeth is a prime example.

    i meant in black metal the lyrics arent necessarily as important as the music. probably typo'd. my bad.

  • @greyfox92 Black Metal is all about lyrics, it's about culture, and christian black metal is not black metal...

  • @juanarkantos are you joking? thats why black metal has a completely unique sound to any other form of metal? metal's about music always has been. if all black metal has to be antichristian, then Immortal isn't black metal. shit even Emperor only sang about satanism in their early days. On the later albums it was all about nature, mysticism, and mythology. theres plenty of black metal bands that arent anti christian, so that makes no sense at all.

  • @greyfox92 ok... call them white metal, but not black metal...

  • @juanarkantos lol what are you 15? sorry, its black metal. live with it.

  • @juanarkantos dude white metal is chrisrian black metal. emperor is black metal. for proof, their frontman is a satanist and the music is pointed towards anti christianity.

  • @darthmaul627 i wasn't talking about emperor, read the whole conversation. of course emperor is black metal...

  • Fuck, it takes a while to get to the point

  • Only Emperor could create such emotional songs

  • I must admit, I highly preferred Ihsahn's vocals on Into the Nightside Eclipse album, at that time his voice made one shiver. Granted he's still an absolutely awesome Black Metal vocallist, but I doubt anything will ever beat the vocal work he done on Nightside. Just my thoughts.

  • I like this song, but years ago, Emperor's shit was amazing!

  • Years on and I'm still in awe of this.

  • the intro is the best and the voice awesome!

  • i like the intro

  • this guys voice is awesome no homo

  • Holy shit.

  • I LOVE the harpsichord in the beginning!

  • me too, it´s an amazing sound!

  • I noticed how Emperor's albums have very similar stories in their lyrics. Nonetheless, Emperor is my favorite band.

  • Kickass!!

  • Ihsahn is the greatest metal singer of all time! Emperor for life!!

  • And one of the best black metal songwriter!

  • One of the best Metal songwritters

  • The Intro reminds me so much of Mirrorthrone! Awesome song.

  • I was definatly not expecting this after listening to some older Emperer :| But this shit is sick! Like everything else they've done aswell

  • one of the titans of black metal if not the best in my opinion... you will never confuse emperor with any other black metal band in past, present or future.

    may we all fall aside to the darkness :0

  • Well I only meant this song

    There early work was Black Metal(Symphonic like always)

  • my fav. band of all time!

  • Hope i dont get any Thumb downs

    I mean this an excelent song but it is more like extreme Power metal or lets say just Symphonic metal rather than Black metal(I love all kinds of Metal thats why i also like Power metal and have no problem using the name)

  • Its just one song, bands are catagorised* on all their works.

  • the never ending tag discussion ...

  • Emperor is indeed very different then other black metal bands. I think it is because they have very much keyboard influences in their music. I like thier style. :P

  • I can hear a lot of different styles in this song, power and symphonic are definitely two of them.

  • @Slayedjudas666

    I agree. It's a question of genre (which is blurry these days). Emperor are amazing, no doubt but they are not black metal. Honestly, most black metal is pretty terrible...but there are a few black metal bands that are genuinely talented and awesome. I suppose it's the same with any genre though....it takes sifting through the shit to find the gems.

  • @PilmarKhinKari but think about it if all the black metal bands sounded like this its would all sound all the same just like *cough* *cough* deathcore. and most of the bands like darkthrone and burzum they have shitty ass sound quality because its for of a more dark atmosphere. as varg said it himself. and this is BLACK METAL!

  • @PilmarKhinKari Wut. Everything about this band is black metal, it's just more melodic than the raw stuff. Go listen to In the Nightside and tell me that's not black metal.

  • i just heard this song...and Emperor for the first time yesterday...wow...i never knew what i was missing out on

  • one of my favrite song !!!

  • EMPEROR is DEAD......but he was one of the best...sorry...still is!!!!

  • and he beheld the ruins of an empire tooooorrrnnn apaaaaaaaaaaaaaart

    that parts gets me everytime

  • this song and this album is the most serious black metal album ever...

  • Is this Counterpoint-Composition in the beginning? WOW

  • yes. but listen carefully, you can hear counterpoint-composition in half of the riffs, with more than 2 voices. musically, its a masterpiece.

  • the opening is so great!!!

  • Song writing at its more ambitious and powerfull. This is by far the greatest emperor album, probably my favorite metal album ever too.

  • !!Hail Emperor!!

  • best work from emperor!!

  • everyone who hates this album are gay bm elitists

    this album is amazing neo-classical shit

  • One of my favourite songs on the album. The intro is great :3

  • the best song of emperor

  • simply their best song, i think!

  • Its much rather Spit It Out

  • Best Emperor song ever.

  • its not the best of the album, I think all songs of the album are the best, and I really mean it

  • its not the best of the album, I think all songs of the album are the best, and I really mean it

  • Yes I will marry and serve any Isahn followers I love you Samoth and Trym!!!!!
