Legendary drumming of Trym. One of the best drummers in the world!!

I genuinely thought they were using Faust from now on so this is awesome!!

[@sanjinakama1228]

the years go by and still the band is fierce great technique

[@metalsmithnick8714]

One of the most epic songs written. Any genre

[@j2oaks]

This band is rarely active and never lose a step. Sound better than they did in 1997.

[@henrywalton5967]

Emperor live shows are quality over quantity for sure. They always sound really on point, think they must rehearse a fair bit. Ihsahn has really taken care of his vocals too, he sounds amazing still. Saw them in London last year and I've got tickets to see them in Scotland & Ireland next year too.

[@joefazza2380]

​@Henry Walton I'm seeing them in Ireland next year because no england show, should be worth it though

[@SamuelBlackMetalRider]

Ihsahn is a demigod. Vocals are mind blowing indeed, and guitars, well, god tier especially while singing

[@dismalrealms3587]

​@@henrywalton5967 does he ever drink or do drugs?

[@vahrzawofficialtracks]

Super active. Have been running festivals nigh on 10 years.

[@paulotomaz7100]

This man is a living legend . A monster in the drums

[@thesarratum]

It is amazing to watch a flawless performance of a legendary song, and so effortless ! I would almost believe it was an easy play :)

[@biorythmicshifter]

The riffs are played more cleanly now. The nuances jump out a little more, give me a higher appreciation of the sense of flow in the melodies. These songs are still powerful after all these years. They have aged well…

[@DavidLoveless]

I was thinking the same thing about the melodies. Gives you an even better appreciation for the genius songwriting.🤘🏽

[@trommnorse]

What do you mean: now? Anthems is a recorded album with a fucked up sound, this is live 25 years later.

[@biorythmicshifter]

@@trommnorse I’m sure the clarity is due to the advances made in recording technology. These guys were never sloppy players to me so I guess I used the wrong words initially but it’s unquestionable to my ears that I can discern the riffing much better now than the original recording which I still adore beyond words…

[@radoslawwalasik1678]

@@trommnorse back in 1997 it wasn’t fucked up, still this album is one of all time.

[@meshzzizk]

I think it’s partly the playing and partly more refined amp settings, mixing, micing, etc. When you’re a young musician in a scene that fetishizes rawness and primitive production, you can practice your instrument all day but still have no idea how to ensure your band sounds good and clear and evenly audible in a live setting-you might not even care. I’m sure these guys have learned a lot in the 20+ years since they first toured on this album. As for the original recoding, blurry primitive production was the aesthetic of Norwegian black metal of the time. Their third record IX Equilibrium sounded amazing and very clear, and black metal fans immediately hated it without giving the material (some of which, esp the first 3 tracks, is quite strong!) a chance

[@wanjanechtangroeger]

Awesome footage! You look much more comfortable behind the kit compared to 2-3 years ago. Must be the hair ;) Super impressive to see all the "jazzy" details in your drumming in this song!

[@nachomagallanico]

was thinking the same, the lack of touring imo, but here, god damn he's breathes confidence. Great to see one of the greats perfecting his craft even at 50, cause this 2023 rendition of this classic is just great, it gives me motivation at 40 to keep going.

[@Incestrul_Lust]

What can you tell us about his techniques, Nechtan?

[@wanjanechtangroeger]

@@Incestrul_Lust Well, what do you want to know? :D

[@caprise-music6722]

To me Trym and Hellhammer have always been on a higher level then many other BM drummers, and one of the reasons for that is that they take inspiration from a lot of different music, especially jazz etc

Trym and Darkside. Chefs kiss.

[@curtissflamence]

Love that you can hear all the instruments. Great clip

[@FilipeGomesDrummer]

Trym is a fantasticdrummer, quite relaxed. What I don't understand is how the hell he's comfortable playing with his snare and ride cymbal so freakin' low

[@morganix007]

That is what I noticed,especially the ride.

[@soulander13]

He is a low-rider🤭

[@normanwilder4935]

For me you were always was and always be black metal`s number 1 drummer. Not only for the unique drumming techniques, but also for your composition skills which are above and beyond, especially for such complicated rhythms as Emperor's.

Mister Trym T, you damn rule i cant recount the number of full evenings i went through to appease depression watching continuously your subtly empowering bewitching drum playing, especially the black and white rehearsals of "acclamation" and "with strenght". I am a guitarist but you are the one giving me the longing to start the drumming experience

[@Nicolas.Vincent]

Empowering, Bewitching and Longing, for you first "Drummer" experience? Why make this weird?

[@_yzt]

As a devoted follower i can definitely see that a certain awkwardness on blastbeats (man, original Anthems blastbeats _are_ fast) that was there some years ago has gone, it's definitely the hair! The only thing left to do is shave the beard and tie up the pony-tail to get back Trym of 1999! Can't wait to see Ye Entrancemperium from this show.
