EMPEROR RE-ISSUES OUT OCTOBER 18TH
"Before everyone starts screaming rip off we thought we had better explain
ourselves first.....Way back before we had our own office in the states......The Emperor albums were licensed to a USA company. These rights have now been returned to us as the license has expired, so the Emperor albums for the first time in the USA will actually be on Candlelight. The band had unseen footage of various tours etc so we thought they would make great additions for the first proper release in the States of these Candlelight and Emperor classics. This material was not available when we did the updated versions (those were not re-release as we took the originals off the market as we obviously did not have all the additional tracks etc then....). So rather than pay expensive import prices for these they will actually come out in Europe also. They will also come in cool slipcases...they will contain.....
In documentary style, "Wrath of the Tyrant," being part one, "includes very rare, exclusive footage of pre-Nightside rehearsals plus live outtakes from our first tour (with support from Cradle of Filth, 1993)," says guitarist Samoth.
"In the Nightside Eclipse," part two, "includes edited material from a live show in Oslo for the song "Towards the Pantheon," as well as various other clips from live recordings in 1997."
"Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk, starts off with a band interview on
Finnish TV talking about Anthems and then various live clips from 1997-98,
including cool clips from the Dynamo Festival," says Samoth.
"Part four, IX Equilibrium, starts off with a clip from the No Mercy Festival tour and then follows us to the US for our first and only headline American tour in 1999." IX Equilibrium concludes the four-part enhancement series with a clip from the Mystic Festival in Poland, the final Emperor performance.
Wrath Of The Tyrants, In The Nightside Eclipse, Anthems To The Welkin At
Dusk and IX Equilibrium are all released on the 18th October." - Plastichead Mailorder Newsletter
Commentaar van mij is overbodig lijkt me zo. Heb je deze albums nog niet? Halen die hap! Mooie kans om een paar van de gaafste BM-releases in te slaan
