This song, is among the greatest black metal songs...maybe even the best out there. Soo many people listen to this song and then find out how melodic black metal can be....not about Satan and all that other crap. It's about creating atmosphere that is soothing but yet so extreme. Emperor are legend's!!
I don't know HOW Ihsahn does vocals like that! I've been trying for so long to figure it out, and no matter how much I warm up, I can't get it loud enough without gagging. His throat must simply be rawhide.
If Ihsahn is perhaps reading our comments, I would like him to know that he's giving me the inspiraton to attend the University of Oslo and drive forward a black metal career in Norway. I may be a small Latin girl from Cuba who can play guitar, but something is telling me I have the Black Wizards on my side:) Thankyou, Ihsahn and Emperor for giving the black metallers 'In The Nightside Eclipse'
IT's amazing how black metal is SO fuckin huge and notorious to ALOT of ppl, and yet ALOT of MORE people don't even know it exists It's amazing One of the best Emperor songs!
I was there, I crossed the planet to get there. It was worth it. Before a mighty EMPEROR, there up came!! It's great to see so many people recognise brilliance.
I love this song, so fast and still melodic. It's the song that got me into listening to black metal. At first it was so strange and different from the other forms of metal I listened to but after a few listens I got the atmosphere.
Emperor...one of the main bands that got me into the genre.... I wish they would reform. I want to see them so bad! But hey I got into them after they broke up.... I'm 17 now and I was only listening to stuff like AC/DC when they broke up and didn't even know what black metal was at the time! I wish I did.... Hails from Canada!
This is the song that got me into Metal altogether. Some guy was trying to get me into Metal by listening to Slipknot, I hated it, and I found this instead. That was the best day of my life.
I remember getting In The Nightside Eclipse when it was first released, I still have the vinyl. This album stood out even back then, there was no other like it at the time. Today it still remains one of my all time favorites and I still feel the same impact as I did when I first got it 15 years ago back in 1994.
I haven't listened to Emperor in forever. Pretty cool that this is featured on RU-vid, but it's too bad only people who appreciate this genre will upvote this video. I AM THEEEEEM
GOdamn, I can remember listening to this shit back in 1994 when it came out on century media. man this brings back memories, old immortal, darkthrone, satyricon, mayhem,burzum, dissection, all the oldschool goodies.
THANNK YOU SO MUCH! from reading your comment i feel alot better about this. im the same way. i just like how the music is. i am purely christian but im ok with people having their own religions even if it attracts evil. i just love the music. especially emperor. these guys r pretty cool.
EMPEROR...just a word but so powerful...aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
My life changed when I accidentally recieved a black sabbath double live album. It changed again when my freind gave me this album. Emperor never beat In the Nightside Eclipse, but I hail them because this material is just so F'ng majestic and awesome. This is what black metal is really about.
