Ihsahn and Emperor

[affinityband]

do you even THINK that peccatum would have taken ANY of the "Daring" attempts it did without ihsahn making such a name for himself before hand? its called playing it safe. emperors worst day > peccatums best day. jesus christ.

Even if this is the case, im pleased he had dared to do something else. I myself was happy with the result too. There were things in there i hadnt heard before from a metal band per se..(This could be because i havent actually explored huge amounts of underground metal). Point im trying to make is, it was something a little different to my ear from ihsahn. I always loved the way he wrote but i wanted here if he could do it differently. He did, and i liked it.

I like 'The Adversary' more than any previous Emperor or Peccatum albums. I also think it is going to be the first album that I've downloaded and am also going to buy. Now if my record store just put the new Katatonia EP for pre-order I'd grab that and The Adversary.
