Emperor were a Norwegian black metal band formed in 1991. Over the years, the band’s music changed to what can be called “extreme symphonic metal” in their later days. They dissolved in 2001, but reunited in 2006 and again in 2007 for a few festival dates and brief US tours. The group was founded by Samoth on drums and Ihsahn on guitar and vocals.
