It's always great to hear R.E.M. cover an Emperor song

[@prieterico]

This is the best live performance of this song 100%

[@24tnuhknaks]

Absolutely! I still remember borrowing the dvd from a friend circa 2007 and being blown away 🔥

[@hammettsatriani]

Not just vocals but Ihsahn's guitar skills are also amazing.

[@masteropuppetz66]

IMO one of the best black metal songs ever...

[@savber99]

[@davidmurphy8364]

For me this is the greatest live show ever released, everything sounds absolutely fantastic my only criticism is that there's not a drum cam.

[@maskharah]

No shit. This an ministry's sphinctour 1996 are two of the best live dvds ever.

[@johnnyd5186]

Emperor's IX Equilibrium tour recordings (namely Live Ceremony) are arguably the best BM concerts of all time...

[@joeyuzwa891]

mayhem with Dead would’ve been pretty cool to see, i think

[@camilayanez6544]

Recuerdo ver siempre este video en cd bajado de internet y hoy luego de más de 15 años los veré al fin!

[@stormtrooper86]

[@Mayheml]

Ihsahn is sick in this gig. He literally scares the shit out of me.

[@davidmurphy8364]

Heard these guys for the first time when I was 15 and for the last 16 years they've been my favourite band.

[@lllfelipesaccolll]

[@2DReanimation]

Augh... sounds like the recording device turned deaf before getting to this song. Really dampened. Sad...

[@Bigheadbear666]

Why there is an "s" with wizard?

[@Wolfiins]

if you read the lyrics, it makes sense

[@savber99]

it means, those wizards are his servants, he is the spirit of their existence

[@AnCapDanny]
