On the 2nd wave of Black Metal? Sure. Emperor, Thorns and Ved Buens Ende were in leagues of their own. Nowadays? You have Blut Aus Nord, Deathspell Omega and Mgla that managed to elevate Black Metal to a whole new level, all three heavily influenced by the previous three, but with their own twist.
@@end_of_time_real aka counterpoint, "the relationship between two or more musical lines (or voices) which are harmonically interdependent yet independent in rhythm and melodic contour"
Listen to Blut Aus Nord's Memoria Vetusta II: A Dialogue With The Stars. It's like a great Emperor album that Emperor never put out. BAN is great over all too, but they do other types of black metal projects. They are the pioneers of the 3rd wave, but they'll do a melodic record, and older school stuff sometimes.
I was there and it is the best concert I've ever attended. I ended up with tears in my eyes when they were nearing the end because they played every single song I had wished for. Perfect concert and a beautiful night.
Lyrics: Curse you, all men Whose coil is strong. I recognise the sparrows heart Beneath the theatre of misery. Disbelivers shalt by dawn Be forced to forever mourn. Curse you, all men That resent my empire. Cause I have risen again, At war this time. The truth I speak is your decease. My word is your defeat. And thou shalt not Be able to hide anymore. The prophecy will conquer at last Your sense of reality. With mission to kill, The theatre of misery. He has risen again, Armed with the source of sin. And as humans shalt fade, He shalt inherit their strength. Men of the damned, You will reluctantly Secure His eternal victory. Curse you, all men Whose coil is strong. I recognise the sparrows heart Beneath the theatre of misery. Disbelivers shalt by dawn Be forced to forever mourn. The truth I speak is your decease. My word is your defeat. Yes, you are indeed the few. I am the one.
To this day the musical genius in these songs is still extraordinary for the metal scene. Remarkable compositions and some of the stuff Emperor did would probably make Bach go "Noice."
All metal is great until the band goes live in a large open air concert.. then you see the good ones slipping away from the heard. Open air concerts are the ultimate challenge and all my favorite bands pass that each time. All hail Emperor
bububububak we're honestly extremely lucky to have grown up and around a band like emperor.... I saw them live about 10 years ago and it opened my eyes to what black metal... And all metal.... Should sound like.... Emperor is truly one of a kind.
It's weird. I like a lot of Emeperor's songs but something still hinders me to fully enjoy their albums. Maybe it's the crazy complexity of the songs haha
There are really awesome Blackened Death bands, like Svart Crown or Hate. But there´s no Black Metal band that comes even closer to Emperor, the melody, the strenght, the agression, the technicallity and the darkness of Emperor could not be achieved easily.
What do you think of this sound? Is it LIVE, or probably sourced through the monitors? Anyway, apart from the outstanding musicianship, trym is a damn beast!
oh of course man...but just to see if you would even dig it..no need to waste good money on something you will be displeased with unless you are the type to buy stuff like that just to say you own it...which there is nothing wrong with that but i personally dont buy cd's/dvd's i don intend to watch and listen to...ive outgrown the need to own every release my favs put out...just me...rock on man!
@@aymanlafaz nah, i still liked prometheus a lot. it has some traits of ihsahn's later solo work, and it's a bit more experimental, but it's still a fantastic album imo. emperor was always on the more progressive side of black metal, i don't think prometheus was out of character. but again, they chose to end the emperor name there, and ihsahn continued this direction with his solo work in a more pronounced fashion, which i also like a lot. so i guess that explains why i like prometheus. but whether it's up your alley or not it's nowhere near the same level of drop off of some other legendary bands.

Some people seem to not notice that these type of bands consist of amazing musicians. They are quite incredible
Agree!!
Thats pretty normal in my time!!
Emperor has always been on a different level than any other Black Metal bands.
You got that right!!
they are the pinnacle of black metal
@Joe Ward Yep. Dissection and Emperor are on the same level, but that's it.
On the 2nd wave of Black Metal? Sure. Emperor, Thorns and Ved Buens Ende were in leagues of their own. Nowadays? You have Blut Aus Nord, Deathspell Omega and Mgla that managed to elevate Black Metal to a whole new level, all three heavily influenced by the previous three, but with their own twist.
@Joe Ward Dissection weren't a Black Metal band, Blackened (melodic) Death Metal imo.
Trym Torson is a machine gun, and his face is like: wtf so easy
He's like
hmm what should I have for dinner
Forget Black Metal, forget Metal, this is some of the best music ever written across the board.
Contrapuntal genius.
Very well put, I was just imagining J.S.Bach listening to this. This is indeed superlative counterpoint.
Absolutely.
what contrapuntal means?
@@end_of_time_real aka counterpoint, "the relationship between two or more musical lines (or voices) which are harmonically interdependent yet independent in rhythm and melodic contour"
Emperor is the apex of Black Metal. Haven't heard anything better all these years later.
I believe that Emperor is one of the best bands ever

colin poitras DISSECTION DUDE??
Emperor is the Apex of music in the latter half of the 20th century.
colin poitras then and enslaved
having watched all these 2006 wacken vids i think its safe to say this was the best black metal concert.
I was there and it is the best concert I've ever attended. I ended up with tears in my eyes when they were nearing the end because they played every single song I had wished for. Perfect concert and a beautiful night.
@@CrabJuice83 Man, that must have been incredible. I've always wanted to go to one of these metal fests, but leaving the US is so expensive. :/
10 dislake's people who listens avenged sevenfold
le funny le 9gag le haha
Lol agree
lol made my day
bunu sevmemek mümkün mü ya
Rip engrish
the dual guitars sounds genius, reminds me of death metal in some ways.
This album is more Death Metal oriented.
(even it has a song called "The warriors of modern death" hehehe)
It most definitely has a Morbid Angel atttude.
if there's anything that deserves to be called epic it's Emperor playing live
that drums sounds great
Easily one of the best extreme metal acts, especially live. Cheers Emperor.
This is why I bring a guitar to a campfire.
Thanks 👍😘🇸🇪
Lyrics:
Curse you, all men
Whose coil is strong.
I recognise the sparrows heart
Beneath the theatre of misery.
Disbelivers shalt by dawn
Be forced to forever mourn.
Curse you, all men
That resent my empire.
Cause I have risen again,
At war this time.
The truth I speak is your decease.
My word is your defeat.
And thou shalt not
Be able to hide anymore.
The prophecy will conquer at last
Your sense of reality.
With mission to kill,
The theatre of misery.
He has risen again,
Armed with the source of sin.
And as humans shalt fade,
He shalt inherit their strength.
Men of the damned,
You will reluctantly
Secure His eternal victory.
Curse you, all men
Whose coil is strong.
I recognise the sparrows heart
Beneath the theatre of misery.
Disbelivers shalt by dawn
Be forced to forever mourn.
The truth I speak is your decease.
My word is your defeat.
Yes, you are indeed the few.
I am the one.
heavy metal 🖤 🤘
how they can play this live is incredible to me.
the intro of this song is like The Nazgul yelling in the lord of the ring
of the best pieces ever written
My, his hands make it look so easy. Ihsahn is the Robert Fripp of metal.
Drummerinthe Park And he does it while singing. A beast.
Dimmu dont even come close
Will Hammond Agree
Their first album was great
Dimmu is for boys, Emperer is for men!
Dimmu’s not even in Emperor’s league, they shouldn’t be compared, it’s too unfair
Their best song hands down.
Trym rozpierdala na tych garach.wszyscy nowi rzeźnicy mogą mu ssać jajca.niesamowity gość
This song is simply genial... guitar riffs are incredible, wow!
one of the best songs i've heard in my life
次元が違うわ・・・・
To this day the musical genius in these songs is still extraordinary for the metal scene. Remarkable compositions and some of the stuff Emperor did would probably make Bach go "Noice."
Eargasm
Proof that Trym has only two arms and is not, as widely rumoured, an octopus.
Emperor is on another level, this must never die, Emperor will livel forever
look at those fingers dance
Still one of the true greats.
LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!
Une telle performance méritait bien quatre milliards d'années d'évolution depuis l'amibe insouciante... 👻
1 of the top 5 best live acts in metal period
Emperor are the best imo.
No Fucking dislike for Emperor
All Hail the Emperor
This is pure beauty \m/
Quite possibly the best 4:48 seconds of black metal... PERIOD.
Edward Williams the ending?
Inno a satana
Trym Torson. .
+Eder Bueno Fucking beast!!!!
the most sexy drummer, his face is like dead face, not showing any emotion while drumming as hell
@@blissluminosity Yes, man. I miss him
They sound so much better with trym behind the kit
pfiuuu awesome; Trym is a beast !
just perfect
incredible

Master Blaster
masterpiece!!
So much talent!
Amazing...
Beautiful
I need this live DVD in my life!!!
All metal is great until the band goes live in a large open air concert.. then you see the good ones slipping away from the heard. Open air concerts are the ultimate challenge and all my favorite bands pass that each time.
All hail Emperor
Unbelievable!
Norwegian Black Metal!!
0:33, bang your fucking heads!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HAIL EMPEROR
Pure Power
good point
HE HAS RISEN AGAIN!!
Emperor is in black metal like Dream Theater in progressive metal
I remember being able to play this with my friend at the time Rudy
Was a genius...
damn right man
strong !
I wonder if I'll ever see/hear another band match this. I hope they have lots of musical children to follow in their footsteps!
bububububak Listend to Maladie man
Rich Chaplin Oh come on, that's not even close, are you serious?
bububububak we're honestly extremely lucky to have grown up and around a band like emperor.... I saw them live about 10 years ago and it opened my eyes to what black metal... And all metal.... Should sound like.... Emperor is truly one of a kind.
Hail Gods of Black Metal
Epic
hermoso
Shit like this is why Metal is my religion.
beautiful music is art 2:52
Feminists should love this.
hahaha
They do not need that panda make up thing to play good blackmetal.
Merry easter
Boa.
Overbudding FTW.
It's weird. I like a lot of Emeperor's songs but something still hinders me to fully enjoy their albums. Maybe it's the crazy complexity of the songs haha
SEE YOU NEXT YEAR IN GREECE, LEGENDS!
Ihsahn is a god
Task17😊

What do you think of this sound? Is it LIVE, or probably sourced through the monitors?
Anyway, apart from the outstanding musicianship, trym is a damn beast!
monitors of course sounds too clean
Thought so. Though, indeed the musicianship is outstanding!
Sourced through the monitors?
It's live
sourced through the monitors is still live. It just goes through the board instead of the speakers so it doesn't have all the ambient noise.
Happy International Women's day
this comment is uber epic. thumbs up for you!
Trym. Enough said.
Bassist is pretty much there to bang his head. At least he knows his role....
He is growling backing vocals too
oh of course man...but just to see if you would even dig it..no need to waste good money on something you will be displeased with unless you are the type to buy stuff like that just to say you own it...which there is nothing wrong with that but i personally dont buy cd's/dvd's i don intend to watch and listen to...ive outgrown the need to own every release my favs put out...just me...rock on man!
this is like BDSM good!
Is that Secthdamon on the bass ?
Valar Morghulis
Valfar maybe?
they knew when to stop. c'mon, what's better, stopping and being legendary or going down poorly like metallica, morbid angel dimmu borgir?
they actually started declining when releasing prometheus that album was overdone in my opinion
@@aymanlafaz nah, i still liked prometheus a lot. it has some traits of ihsahn's later solo work, and it's a bit more experimental, but it's still a fantastic album imo. emperor was always on the more progressive side of black metal, i don't think prometheus was out of character. but again, they chose to end the emperor name there, and ihsahn continued this direction with his solo work in a more pronounced fashion, which i also like a lot. so i guess that explains why i like prometheus. but whether it's up your alley or not it's nowhere near the same level of drop off of some other legendary bands.
@@givemeajackson yeah fair enough it wasnt a big fail like in the case of morbid angel for example
god damn it, why'd they have to break up?? Just why????
@demequadenthyrane ..?
The official anthem of feminism!
I'm the 666 like
Emperor is the greatest black metal band of all time...but the greatest black metal album is probably...Nattens Madrigal by Ulver....DONT AT ME
I know that I will probably get crucified for saying this but what if Gene "The Atomic Clock" Hoglan played drums for Emperor?
What year is this?
+tankintummy 2006 in wacken. this is the best concert i've seen from them. so fucking amazing..nothing comes close.
+utku karaçam *2006
imo...tsjuder entombed cattle decapitation and slayer...my opinion but i stand behind it
These dudes were really rocking it around this time....after 2010 they got weak!
boring song..
Yea.
Hit us with the good stuff big boy
@@isiscruz9075 Boring girl...
