I am the Emperor

[Nate The Great]

I went with Anthems. It was the first black metal I ever bought, and it is still awesome all the way through. Nightside is damn good too.

 

[J.]

maybe it's time to get it going again, with all the forum newbs.

 

[Crimson Velvet]

I voted "In the Nightside Elipse", 'cause it's the only Emperor album I still feel is worthwhile. I don't spin it very often, though. In fact, it's been a couple of years, I think... Emperor have never appealed to me all that much...

 

[Doomwatcher]

In The Nightside Eclipse.

The EP, Wrath of The Tyrant is also awesome.

 

[spaffe]

ItNE since it's the only one I've heard by them. It took me about two years to realize that it's not overrated but in fact extremly good.

Blackmetallers' opinion : In The Nightside Eclipse
All others' opinion: Anthems

 

[IOfTheStorm]

"Blackmetallers = people with brain" = false

 

[Dev]

I am the exception
The Acclamation of Bonds is a very overlooked song in fact..

 

[JayKeeley]

lolz, good thing I'm not a "blackmetaller" then.

I am!

Where all the white women at?

 

[Dark One]

People with ears and brains' opinion: ITNE
All others' opinion: Anthems

BULL....FUCKING....SHIT

 

[Dark One]

Heh, but of course. I'm a huge black metal fan and consider Anthems to be one of the be all, end all releases. BTW, I just received Dark Medieval Times in the mail, and I have to say, holy shit this rules.

 

[Crimson Velvet]

I would say "Hvite Krists Død" is the better live song. As soon as the words "kampen mot gud og hvite krist er i gang!!!" hits the audience, the mood is just set.

EDIT: Just remembered, though... "Hvite Krists Død" isn't even on that album... Man, I'm bored tonight...

Fuck yeah!!!

 

[MajestikMøøse]

I went with Anthems. "With Strength I Burn" > your soul



(really! It's true!)

 

[Henrik Main]

Yeah, I'm fucking stupid not to own that yet, because I know it absolutely destroys... As I've said earlier, "Walk the Path of Sorrow" was pretty fucking amazing to see live, as poor as Satyricon is otherwise these days...

høhø kool, I've got a classic extreme metal album that Erik doesn't have. And it's even the über-grim version without a barcode.

As for the poll, "Nightside" by far.

 

[Hell Mike]

Nightside by FAR, Anthems isn't really that good an album even if it has some hit tracks.

 

[Ellestin]

"Anthems..." really. Probably listened to "...Nightside..." a few years too late to find it anywhere orgasmic. More than enjoyable yes, but there are quite a few keys-BM albums released since then that I'd rather take along on a sledge trip to the North Pole.

"Anthems..." however is the thickest, heaviest, most dead brilliant symphonic BM album ever spawned, and so it shall remain.
