These samples are all MP3's, but they are zipped in order to save every extra kb of web-space possible. The samples have now been re-made into 128kbps 44mhz. That is CD-quality. But still this is just samples. To hear the full songs just buy the albums in your local store, or better, go to the Ordering page. Hmm, at this point in time a few of the samples are lost due to some ass deleting them from my danish friend Lars account. Thanks again Lars for hosting them, they will be back soon. "EMPEROR" I am the Black Wizards Even though this song is from the Emperor EP, it is still the most appreciated song whenever Emperor play live. "IN THE NIGHTSIDE ECLIPSE" The Majesty of the Nightsky This song shows the way Emperor creates a great atmosphere by their usage of the keyboards. On the original sleeve of "Nightside" this song is called "The Majesty of the Night Sky" but this is the way it should be. Inno a Satana This might be the most classic Black metal song ever. Mixing clear vocals with Ihsahn's trademark screaming. "ANTHEMS TO THE WELKIN AT DUSK" Thus Spake the Nightspirit This song shows Emperor's great developement from the "Nightside" album to this one. The Loss and Curse of Reverence The video track from Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk. One of the most classic Black metal songs you'll ever hear. Increadibly beautiful, yet so unbelievably intense and aggressive. With Strength I Burn Here you'll hear another side to Ihsahn's vocal skills. The song reaches over eight minutes and takes you through some beautiful musical landscapes. "IX EQUILIBRIUM" Curse You All Men! The opening track of this album. Curse... is clearly one of the best Emperor-songs ever (webmaster's comment) Sworn Remix "Sworn" remix by Garm/ Ulver 1999. Appeared as bonus track on the limited edition "IX Equilibrium" digipack. Full song!!!
