Ihsahn looks like a true jazz master.

Faust is killing it on drums.

1: A legendary band like Emperor deserves a night slot. 2: Who the fuck did the mixin??? 3: Fuck to those haters saying that Trym is better than Faust. Of course he is...but this is a celebration with the original drummer from that album u dumbasses..Just enjoy this concert! 4: Emperor is the most honest and uncompromising band ever...RESPECT. 5: I'd really like a new album even if I know it's not gonna happen... 6: Long live the Emperor! \m/T_T \m/

I think the bassplayer really added a lot to the show, good to see.

Holy fuck "In the Nightside Eclipse" played entirely!

I fully regret reading the comments. Such a shame that people cant just relax and appreciate great music.

Just look at how young they still are. These black metal bands were just teenagers in their time.

Definitely one of my favourite concerts of this year. Ihsahn has an aura, it's beyond words. But that crowd was a shame :(

Faust and Samoth back on the stage together. I like that.

Gran banda , pero un público que no lo merece , emperor es un deleite verlos y oírlos... no hay como el público latino !!

DON'T LOOK DOWN! Only a bunch of lawyers and fashion critics.

Faust!!!! really gives it that old school vibe....original drummer!

ihsahn es una persona de admirar tiene estilo y personalidad, no tiene cliches estupidos, demuestra ser una persona muy madura y respetable |m|

I was there, all the way from Australia. It was the highlight of Wacken 2014 for me

I don't know what some people are complaining about. Yes, trym is better than faust in my opinion as well but they decided to tour with faust due to the 20th aniversary of In The Nightside Eclipse so, anyway they sound good and are reunited maybe for the last time ever so instead of complaining you should just enjoy it....is a classic

seriously you guys are complaining about how Ihsahn was dressed? HAHAHAHA

In 2003 I had the incredibly great opportunity to attend Queensryche live in Budapest. No one, including the press, would bet a dime on that they will perform Operation: Mindcrime album whivh was released 15 years ago and they had some more new stuff. Against all the odds, they did, bringing also on the stage even the original female studio singer who performed on that great album the as Sister Mary. They played every particular sound of that album, including even the parts performed by samplers!!! At that very moment they celebrated 15 years from releasing their greatest product ever, which turned to be also the biggest concept album of all times after The Dark Side of the Moon of Pink Floyd in the whole history of rock music. Why do I recall these personal memories which appearently have nothing to do with this video? I do it because the presence of Emperor on the Wacken Black Stage brought back the same feeling and thoughts. Both have been two giant concert performances celebrating some decade old releases!!! (and, unfortunately - as you can also see here, - both have been viewed by a crowd in which the most of the people didn't know where they are and what they're attending... too sad... but respect for those who relly enjoyed it!!!) That could also mean that the two albums could have an impact of the same order of magnitude... The only small detail that makes the difference is that EMPEROR IS THE NO.1 BLACK METAL BAND OF ALL TIMES AND THEIR "IN THE NIGHTSIDE ECLIPSE" IS THE MOST REPRESENTATIVE PRODUCT OF THE GENRE!!! I do't want to hurt any Black Metal fan by this opinion (and I consider myself a true - although I hate the former word in the present context - fan of Bathory, Mayhem, Immortal, older Satyricon - that's because I have nothing to do with their new releases, but they are even so a great band... -, Dimmu Borgir, but also Arcturus, Dissection, and many-many more...), but I really consider that this is the album that covers mostly the essence of what it called Black Metal. From all points of view. Darkness, but not obscurity, atmosphere that's "impossible to cast in words" (I wonder if any of us is such an extraordinary talent in poetry to formulate the unspeakable), harmonies, but no "melodies" you could easily whistle while walking to your job every morning. And I also think those 17-20 year old kids who composed those songs of this album more than 20 years ago - Emperor - managed to capture somehow that certain feature of the genre that not even its "main ideologists" could not formulate, but which makes Emperor a kind of "Pink Floyd" and the "Nightside Eclipse" the top of the top product of the black metal genre. I'm sure that many can argue with this statement, but few can bring some real arguments against it. Anyway, it's not my intention to start any controversy, but to express my opinion, but also my respect and admiration for this extraordinary band. By the way, hail for all metal and rock music fans! The only person I missed from the stage was Mortiis while performing the older stuff :) And one more thing to add: one major "evolutionary line" influencing the modern black metal genre is the Bathory line, especially the older albums which exhibit that razorsharp metallic guitar sound based on the higher frequency harmonics (like in the Bathory song "Enter the Eternal Fire" from the "Under the Sign..." album), and not the blunt, bass dominated one. Quorthon had the greatest influence on the Nordic Black Metal and I personally appreciate very much that one of his songs was put to conclude the setlist. I'm pretty sure that it is not a typical case to hear a Bathory song performed live (but maybe it will be one day, who knows?)... Now it was the case. That's what I call respect!!! THANK YOU, YOUR MAJESTY (OF THE NIGHT SKY), EMPEROR!!!

Fucking brilliant! I really hope they'll do an "Anthems..." anniversary show in 2017 as well! Hearing that whole album live would be amazing!

Turn the volume up as loud as you can, the recording does this video no justice unless you do so. I was at this very show in the front row. Pure magick! The audience was very loud as well and the legendary Emperor put on an incredible performance including Faust for the first time in around 20 years. Absolutely amazing!

There is something mystic in this music and that's gradually enlightening my body, mind n soul on every hearing. Hail Emperor n the art of Black Metal music \m/ \m/

слушал этот альбом в 95 году когда в школе учился. было круто.

Excellent show, brings back great memories when I saw them at Dynamo Open Air. Comments here about the looks/image on stage are foolish. These guys had their corpsepaint and bulletbelts already 20 years ago. It's the music that counts, not the image. One note: the performance should be at nighttime though, not in a sunny daylight ;)

A few thoughts: - When I saw Ihsahn with the white/gold Iceman and glasses, I was thinking that Man, he can pull this off and there is no need for any masquerade, just pure music (not that I don't enjoy theatrical performances a la Attila/Mayhem) - Faust is more than decent, and however not as fast as Trym, still great, and I really like how the bassdrums sound. It was also nice to hear the songs with a little difference - I think many of the Emperor fans are now 15-20 years older then when they started listening to the band, so this is where the laziness comes from :) - My compliments to Secthdamon for the awesome growls

"this is our personal celebration of where we all started" It's a tribute show from Emperor to themselves and their fans. Anyone coming here and expecting another '06 show was bound to be disappointed, that's not what this show was about.

This Was Epic! Went to Wacken for this, couldn't have been any better. It was a great honor to be part of this event. Hail Emperor, Hail Ihsahn. Still after all those years they uphold their name.

Hails to the black wizards........Emperor music till the eternity...!!!!!!!!

Rejoice!!! They are coming back. They´ll play "Anthems To The Welkin At Dusk" in it's entirety in Czech republic next year. They will probably play gigs elsewhere too.

This sounds better than a studio release! Absolute Masterpiece.

aaah fucking hell yeah!! A FINE DAY TO DIE!!

Thank you very much for share this masterpiece.

Very nice to see their live again! Hard to believe that 20 years passed. I grew up with this music. Samoth's beard still hasn't turned gray and it means that we are still young.. Hail the Emperor!

La técnica de Samoth e Ihsahn en las guitarras marcan la diferencia. Sonido pesado pero a la vez claro, los directos de estos tipos son una brutalidad. Ejecución con maestría de todas sus piezas. Sin menospreciar el gutural de apoyo del bajista, tremendo.

Trym may technically be a better drummer than Faust, but this was the anniversary of In the nightside eclipse. Faust's drumming gave a lot of the "feel" of that album, something Trym cannot replicate. tl;dr It's awesome that they chose Faust as the drummer for this particular tour.

41:14 Wow. Even Pikachu is a fan of the band.

Last few days I keep listening this concert. So intens and heavy!

ESPECTACULAR COMO SIEMPRE, ESPERO VERLOS EN MI PAÍS, GRANDE EMPEROR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Man that drummer is really killing it

Perfect set list.

For legends they came on at a very early time....

This is my first time listening to Emperor the music sounds Great!

Uma banda espetacular! Ensaia e sabe o que faz! Alinhada e afiada!

Caught this set a Bloodstock 2014 in the night time. Melted my brain!

What an amazing performance. Hail to the black wizards.

Fantastic performances . They are truly masters of Black Metal . I actually prefer some of the performances here to the studio version !

52:36 his old voice is back!

A lot easier to appreciate this when it doesn't sound like it was recorded on a potato, now I actually get the hype behind Ihsahn's roots. Very groundbreaking music when it came out.

my favorite band of all time

I absolutely love this, I don't get the issues with the guitar tone or the drumming. I have owned this album since its release, the initial production was murky and the album was NEVER a blastfest, it was about the atmosphere and they have conveyed the atmosphere on the stage in such a perfect way. Stop fucking whining!!!

One of the best show's I saw on the main stages !

A masterpiece video of a icon. Perfect.

Great show. Even live, Emperor knows how to create one hell of an atmosphere.

ihsahn you are awesome!! that voice... on some points seem like when they did anthems, just the same... too bad that this recording is too overlayed and loose all the quality! this should not be called HD... anyway being there must be fantastic!! Hail the Emperor!! the Emperor will NEVER die!

Hail Faust! He has shown me the way

These guys are legends. Started at 17 years of age. Wow. Much respect.

Damn that drummer is killer!

great show! i'm still waiting for the spiked shoulder pads ihsahn! :)

Amazing show ! Emperor should return one day releasing a new album.

Thanks!

1:00 Tipico chileno

What a beautiful ending. Hail Quorthon!! :') \m/

What an amazing band with awesome music! I really hope to see them live once in my life! \m/

their recent live gigs are soooo much better than teir old studios!! they improve more and more with age, like good wine!!

Fucking amazing. I love how emotional they look. True passion :) Gets me a bit emotional too to be honest.

Faust still rules!

I love this band!!!

Not a word needed to describe the importance and the majestry of this band.....as far as the tribute is concerned, Quorthon wil be proud while feasting in te golden halls of Vallhall. thank YOU emperor....

Screw the guy that said "If it's not with Trym it's not Emperor." Faust was the original drummer of In the Nightside Eclipse, and was only kicked out because at the time he was in jail, so it's only suitable he's on the 2014 tour.

This was one of my greatest moments at a festival. wish they had headlined though. Would have been better in the dark! And a longer set!

that's the black metal i love! mystic, dark, mysterious, majestic, charming, magic, refined, well matured...Emperor is somehow the pink floyd of black metal! peace from Morocco

one word to say here : ICONS. thank you bro for uploading this Gem.

hell yeah, min 48:45 the flag of my country Chile! great show of the best band!!

thay playes during the day to wake the world up!!!!

Amazing that they could manage to get Bard back on the kit for this set. Sounds amazing! The raw power that defined this release is right there! Effortless too. Pure. Wow.

I accidentally stumbled upon this. Thank heavens I did!!!!!!! I am a big Emperor fan all the way from South Africa. All the morons complaining don't know how fortunate they are seeing all of these great bands. Hearing Into the Infinity of Thoughts Live just opened up a whole new dimension to this song. I listened to the song on repeat countless times on CD, but this rocked completely!!!! One hears so many other things live, but then again, also only because it is Emperor. Anybody knowing anything about music should know how difficult it is pulling off atmospheric black metal like this live. Ihsahn is some sort of god. His vocals are simply amazing. Geez these guys are good. Great to see Faust back on drums, although I rate Trym as probably the best metal drummer I have ever seen. I also don't think playing the whole album front to back is necessarily the best track list, but seeing it was their sole purpose for playing, it makes sense.

Me at 1:04:13 and 1:07:43, fuckyeah, Emperor eclipsed Wacken.

Faust na bateria pqp muito foda ! só os Old !!

Just great!!! Incredible!!!

One of the chosen few black metal bands I listen to... I'm American so my musical pallet is mostly death metal and grindcore... This band is so fuckin awesome.. I hope I get a chance to see them some day... I did get to see Mayhem two years ago.. I also saw Behemoth at the same club in Rochester, N.Y. about a year before that.. Now Emperor needs to come so I can see them too...

I think I have never seen a band of this genre look so friendly... :D

la bandera de Chile siempre haciendo patria en cualquier recital del mundo y con Emperor en el escenario...HAIL EMPEROR !!

the vocal delivery is awsome, between the 3 of them they have all bases coverd, and i think its well done to boot, no stresses, no stretching, not overthe top or poor singing, weall we done i think

One of the best concerts in history. I'll Hope to see Emperor one day :')

YEAH!!! FAUST!!! A true Emperor legend! Goosebumps!

Incredible band and live appearance

Chilling, I have so much respect for this band. They have the most mature attitude in black metal.

Is that Bard Faust on drums?

A black metal band in broad daylight is a contradiction in terms...

These guys are AMAZING live! What a great performance. Newcomer to black metal here, I'm pleasantly surprised! \m/

muchas gracias

I was just having a conversation with a normie friend. He thought all bands must sound less good live. Another good counter example.

bass player is the frontman from zyklon.

There I am right up front amazing concert amazing Emperor

EMPEROR !!! 🤘👹🤘🔥🔥🔥

Dude at 39:38 waited for that moment all his life

3:06 Brazil !
