I like Prometheus a lot. But after familiarizing myself with Emperors earlier excellent and more atmospheric albums, it is a completely different genre. It should NOT have been released as an Emperor record. It's fundamentally a progressive metal album with very little black metal motifs. Emperor are a symphonic black metal band and shouldn't have tried to make Dream Theaters or Fate's Warning meets early Bathory. Lol

Dødswvlf 666 I actually generally listen to Nightside more often because it has some of my favorite classics like “Towards the Pantheon”, “Inno A Satana”, “I am the Black Wizards”, ...etc, but if I have to analyse both albums technically, I would say Prometheus could get a higher score due to its general higher standard of musicianship, much superior audio production, and better consistency - I feel like a few tracks on Nightside get rusty after a few minutes. While all tracks on Prometheus are thoroughly enjoyable.

On a whim, in the late 90s I bought an album from some obscure distro by a band called Blut aus Nord and has since become my go-to for experimental dark music. I basically picked it out of a hat and I still listen to the album more than probably anything else. It was their original Memoria Vetustia album. Thanks to Emperor I started taking chances with new music, I found a lifelong obsession in the process.

I saw them in 99, and it was awesome. Watching their nostalgia shows they have trotted out since they broke up has made me think they should have stayed dormant.

Interesting analysis, but forgot few points about music itself. Emperor is sort of story how black metal evolved. In Nightside drum beats were power metal etc but not much blast beat, because teens in Norway didn't quite know how to play it, then when they got hold of it was nothing but blast beat. Same goes with guitar playing style, where all strings are played constantly was sort of invention of Euronymous, which Emperor utilized. Taking techniques to the limit and culmination point, there aren't much else to go, except start from the beginning, which 'old school' fans expect everything to be. I also add that because how guitars are composed in relation to keyboards, Emperor is very difficult to produce and mix, because there are so many notes and harmonic lines. Album version is very different from live, used to be at least.

Hard disagree on Prometheus. They never inspired another album to sound like that (outside of Ihsahn's solo work) because no other band was able to make an album that complex and layered. All that said, it was my least favorite Emperor album for years and took me forever to get into it. I felt like every time I listened to it and was going in one ear and out the other, and I felt like I wasn't remembering any of the music. Eventually it clicked, but it was laborious to listen to until it did. I now have a vinyl copy of this and it sounds absolutely phenomenal and very powerful.

Your'e completely wrong about varg. First of all he started the church burnings and was found guilty of multiple counts of arson but also the murder of euronymous was premeditated. Snorre from Thorns who was with him at the murder said Varg went there to kill euronymous and they had an alibi ready with another guy covering for them at home. Also most of the other people in the scene doubt Varg's the self defence and it is very unlikely Euronymous would have actually killed him as he was all talk

I hated Prometheus at first, but it eventually grew on me, and I now have a ton of respect for it. Not my favorite, but it’s a great record in its own right, even if it’s not a true Emperor album. It’s also way, way too inaccessible and weird to be “Hot Topic” metal. Leagues ahead of the competition.

You should listen to Icaros on Wacken 2007, that's the way it should have been released.

@sergeant474 me personally I like him for the music and how talented he was but I hate him for the shit he did. So in some ways some or most people have a love hate thing for him.
