what a good question and good answers.

[@Psicosferico]

Probably the most intelligent artist among the norwegian Black Metal scene, always there for the music and never involved in any shit. Is a real pleasure to hear him talking about mostly anything. Such a talented gentleman.

[@fyodoroprichnikbasma]

Kristopher Garm Rygg and Grutle Kjellson are other intellctual figures.

[@onairmastering]

@@fyodoroprichnikbasma YES, was gonna reply that.

So Fenriz is stupid?

[@Vinlandsraud]

I got to applaud The interviewer,- lovely depth on those questions, well done! 👍

[@delhidelirium9091]

It´s pretty rare to find a half decent " Metal interviewer" . Here´s a great example of one!

[@borderedge6465]

One of the most amazing artists in a generation. And what a great interview, kudos to the interviewer

[@ToastedCigar]

One of the best interviews I've ever seen. Ihsahn is such a gentleman, as always, and the interviewer clearly knows how to ask interesting questions! :)

[@kkioulas]

Very good interview guys 👏👏👏

[@aycanbasak]

çok güzel konsept ... seni destekliyoruz kardeş.... selamlar

He’s a smart young man since I first seen his Interview in the 90s on mtv when he was 18 he has always been a smart intelligent young man knows what he is talking about and his words are amazing

[@ktompa77]

He never ceases to amaze me with his depth and intelligence.... Great interview!!!

[@user-bq2xc2fl6l]

Ihsahn really does what a lot of other "progressive" bands wish they could do. Every album seems to have a completely different mood and feel to it, while still managing to be ungodly heavy. You also know exactly who you are listening to within seconds of pressing play. Much of it started with Emperor but begining with the last half of The Adversary he began to really shake off the past very effectively and create something that was fresh and beautiful yet brutally savage. Looks like we'll get two releases in the form of two new eps this year. Who else is waiting with bated breath to hear what he's done?

[@AnfalasHerdsman]

You talk great, its rare to find a good interviewer these days, thank you for this great video, you made him get us great answers. Ps: now that im writing, you have 666 subscribers

[@PaslanmazKalem]

Geç fark ettigime uzuluyorum. harika bir röportaj harika bi müzisyen ve en onemlisi roportajı yapan kisi abartılı soylemek gerekirse müzisyeni, muzisyenin nerdeyse kendisinden bile iyi tanıyarak sorular sormus. Bu tip orijinal sorular keyifle izlememi sagladı. umarım daha fazlası gelir

[@Gonko100]

I just stumbled upon AMR and fell in love with this record. Greatly balanced, very focused, fantastic melodies, clever riffs and altogether an intelligent, strong record. Good to see Ihsahn is such a kind spirited man.

[@lukasgraesslin]

Great interview!
