28:21 Goosebumps still after 26 years. When I first saw this in 1997 Emperor became my favorite BM band. I've seen them twice since and have the "E" logo tattooed. Thank you guys for the recent 2023 show @ House of Blues Anaheim, California. \m/
I was there. I went upstairs from the mosh pit to the balcony on purpose so I could see the performance more clearly. The warm up acts where Peccatum followed by Limbonic Art. My friends and I were amazed that Ihsahn was playing all the lead guitar parts and singing at the same time.
@@casillamo The sound was incredible. As i said, my friends and I were in awe of the sound. The DVD was impressive but to actually be there was something I will never forget. A special mention to Ihsahn who I could clearly see was the main driving force behind the band but every member of the band played spectacularly that night.

Spectacular live, perfect performance from them, at the peak of their powers. A lot of the songs sound almost better here than on record. This and Mayhem's Live In Marseille were my top concerts to watch and listen to back then, the best.
How can a band be so perfect? The voice, the energy, the attitude, the sound.....Soon in Moscow, I think it will be my best concert...No, I'm sure...If they play Sworn, I will sit with a beer and sing a lot, alone.....:)
It's funny to me cuz people talk about Dave Mustaine being so crazy cuz he play his riffs and sing and all that. Lol. Pretty sure Ihsahn was younger here too.
I can just watch this live footage like almost everyday,get more great inspirational musical ideas,drumset ideas for my melodic european death/black metal project Vampirel,great epic show from Emperor...

El directo más importante de emperor i con la mejor formación con tyr al bajo i thrym a la batería está formación era la mejor del black metall noruego los más grandes
Ironically this actually sounds better than the performances they've done ever since the split-up. Trym's drumming is tighter as well. Not a very tight drummer in general, but he was good here. Great concert in general! And now, what, nothing played live from the last two albums? To cater for the simple tastes of people these days? Why? What a pity.
They were touring as a unit for a couple of years by then. They were an active band with tons of shows together and it shows. Tyr providing solid as fuck backing vocals, far more fitting than the ones done by the Leprous guy.
Trym was usually a tight drummer, but he was also pretty physical in his approach, his technique wasn't as refined or as versatile as many extreme drummers today. With him it's basically all singles, heel up on the db, and so on. His playing here was brutal. Aging can take its toll. He was certainly tighter and even faster here, compared to today, especially in his double bass. But still a legend and one of the best in the genre.
The Greatest Black Metal Band of all times
I agree
You're not wrong there
And forever!
Masters hammer?
Fuck man, you ain’t kiddin. Absolute perfection
This concert on dvd made me an Emperor fan for life.
Awsome band
The audio mix from this performance is 100x better than any of their albums lol. I used to watch this every night on vhs
I have to fully agree
Totally agree
Emperor and Mayhem are cleaner live
I would watch either this or Rebirth of Dissection, every night!!
Sounds perfect I really enjoy how sounds every instrument.

What perfect insane gig/atmosphere with some classics played
Ihsahn's voice is so damn AWESOME!
Yes, agreed! Takk!!
so characteristic and one of a kind like Abbath or Legion...
Managed to bag this on vhs, In it's original paper case at a gig in London isahn was playing solo stuff at.. the quality is unreal...
I was obssessed with this vhs back in the day! Emp fan back then, Emp fan still today! Cheers from Panama!

I have this on VHS and DVD. One the best concerts.
Me too
you answer yourself bro? lmao@@linomolina7855
@@linomolina7855what, aren't you same guy?
That he can sing and play either, let alone both at the same time, is just too much for me. Jesus....
41:19 "INNO...A...SATANAAA!!!" That scream in the end always gives me goosebumps!! 🔥
I used to own this on VHS. Amazing live performance
Night of the Graveless Souls.🤘
27:22 I love that riff, it's so cold and catchy) And it's Trym's blasting highlight. Sounds like the fastest drummer ever)))
One of the only bands in black metal that might be better live.

1:42 - “is everybody in? The ceremony is about to begin”
47:26 - Justice has been served.
"I Am The Blackwizards" just blows me away......🤘🤘👊👊
This gig was legendary, I wish I could experienced it.
same my love
The best emperor”s show
My very first DVD of a live performance of any *Black Metal* band ever.
It's funny to me cuz people talk about Dave Mustaine being so crazy cuz he play his riffs and sing and all that. Lol. Pretty sure Ihsahn was younger here too.
Top 10 Metal Bands of all time.
This DVD needs a restoration on HD and audio remastering.
Trym is unbelivable on this DVD, I was te
shocked since the first time I saw this in 1999
Hail Emperor and thank you
El directo más bueno que e visto de una banda de black metall se a convertido en uno de los más importantes
Simply mind blowing
I can just watch this live footage like almost everyday,get more great inspirational musical ideas,drumset ideas for my melodic european death/black metal project Vampirel,great epic show from Emperor...
I literally don't listen to any other black metal band. There's no point. Emperor perfected the genre.
Great, now I finally get to hear the awesome drumming on some of those songs that were muted due to baaaad record recording after nightsky. :-)

Sworn*, not Sworm.
If you took the effort to sort this out why not make sure the titles are correct?
Emperor and Enslaved are the only two bands from the Helvete scene that could outplay their studio sound live imo
Enslaved definitely could not. Emperor are the better live band, it is true.
We'll never know as Burzum never really performed live
Emperor is f....g great !!!!! still kicking ass
Not my faves hymns of them, but once again Emperor shredz sharply playin´ live..HEil Emperor!
This Realm it's for The Emperor!! 🤟🖤🦅
HHHEEELLLOOO
I LOVE IT
AMAZING BLACK METAL BAND LIKE WODAN PROPHETY
THANKS TO SHARE IT
The best band for mi ❤️🤘love them.
EMPEROR !!! 🤘👹🤘🔥🔥🔥
Emperor NEVER disappoint. Even live.
Clássico , perfeito 👏👏👏🎸🤘
Inigualable el emperador los reyes del true black metal norwayn

I love it
Trym : the Patrick Bateman of blastbeats
Why? He's not even the Norwegian psycho..
Top Gig! Respekt
I would take this Ishan over current Librarian Dad Ishan on Vocals any day of the week
Hail Emperor and Lord Ihsahn \m/
The best black metal band of all time...but the greatest is Mayhem
exelente 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
That bassist does not need six strings. I'm pretty sure the 'E' in Emperor stands for 'E Standard'.
he does, you know nothing....
I was there
Only the best!
This is really them at their prime. Ihsahn is looking different here
Puede que la banda de black metall más grande i importante de todas
El mejor DVD de una banda de metal extremo que compré. Una pena que no incluyeran "The Acclamation of Bonds".
Trym is a fucking tank. No ifs, ands, or buts.
Anyone know why did they cut Decrystalizing Reason ?
Lead guitar AND vocals....
DIOSES!!!!!!
Si
Trym at his prime.

He’s very tight here, and this is live
got this on vhs, thats how old-school i am lol
Curse you all men!!!!! 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼
This does the bad recordings justice.
1999
I want go to the past
Trueza
Por que el metal pega tan fuerte en Europa
Sobre todo el black metall
So I guess the bass player was fired? Cause there is NO BASS in this video.
He plays one slide @ 4:20. That was his 2 seconds of glory.
No. 15 minutes.
emperor is not melodic black metal band,it is true. Melodic is dimmu borgir
Think what you want, if you feel comfortable about it.
You don't need to vomit what the webzines teached you
