End.

Note:My first Emperor tune.  This is a classic black metal
cd.  I can remember first listening to it 95' when it first
came out.  I had a good feeling this band was going to go
somewhere in the metal world. And of course, hell yeah.
One of the best black metal outfits everywhere!.
Hope you guys enjoy this one.  I just wanted to note where
you have fast riffs, it may sound like trem picking, but
going over it, its just a lot of fast up and down stroke picking.
