AWESOME. I KNEW IT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN!
"One of metal's greatest bands has been sitting in the shadows for over 10 years, waiting get back together. "We've been getting fan mail every day," says, Ihsahn, the frontman of EMPEROR. "It's kind of absurd really. I never thought people would love us the way they do. Well, the time has come. We are reforming and working on a new album which will be out late summer/early fall of 2012. It will be our first release as a band in many years. Stay tuned for updates."

OMG I always wanted to see them UPSTAIRS. |

I remember when they did play the Palladium upstairs. Old News. |
|
But I'm 12 and trivium is my favorite black metal band. |

Does Ihsahn still have a column in guitar world? |

i dunno but it looks like samoth has YOUR guitar |
|
I think it's connected to an ipod. lolwut? |
|
i do not have high hopes for this. it's going to be another Ihsahn record, and the last one was pretty awful. hopefully it's an April Fool's joke. |
|
damn, you go me with this one |
|
Also,
called dis shit. Where's my 18 bucks. |
|
this had better not be a goddamn money grab with a shit album. |

It's... umm... totally not? Yeah.
|
|
can sonic pulse get on this? |
|
So if samoth is in the band is it going to take on the old-mid career style writing or is it going to be chillsaun writing everything? |
|
ACCORDING TO SAMOTH:
-Nightside 20th anniversary, Faust on drums Wacken open air, album in its entirety
-NO NEW ALBUM
-No world wide tour
-Just a couple of fests next year
mdf most likely, I would assume. |
|
awesome. they played most of Nightside in 07. MDF will be a challenge financially, but if Emperor plays I don't think I can pass that up. |
|
Maryland death fest just confirmed that emperor is NOT playing next year. |
|
I'd laugh so hard if Emperor ended up on Progpower USA instead alongside flowery bands, considering Ihsahn himself said he enjoyed himself more at Progpower than he had at any other fests in years. |

Remember Peccatum?
That's a rhetorical question. We all know you were 5 years old when Peccatum was around. |
|
Always preferred Arcturus, personally. (Ihsahn solo is really the only Ihsahn project I like)
Age isn't relevant. I doubt you were alive when In The Court of the Crimson King was released, doesn't mean you can't love it. |
|
MDF POSTED THAT EMPEROR IS NOT PLAYING. |
|
What's Arcturus got to do with Ihsahn related projects? Samoth played guitars on Constellation but Ihsahn's only involvement was vocals on Radical Cut, which, is one of the best tracks on The Sham Mirrors... |
|
oh are you talking about Carpathian Forest? I've always preferred At The Gates myself. |

|
And I've always preferred women, myself. But you, my little chickadee... |
|
Radical Cut > anything Ihsahn has done on his solo records. That song rips. |
