- Here's a guitar playthrough of Emperor's 'The Loss And Curse Of Reverence' by Ihsahn using his Aristides 060 and 020 guitars.
Some words from Ihsahn:
'In 2017 we have the privilege of celebrating the 20th anniversary of Emperor’s second album; Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk. To mark the occasion we’re currently rehearsing to perform this album in its entirety on some of Europe’s biggest rock festivals this summer. Given these circumstances, I thought it was a great opportunity to present the first single and video track from that album; “The loss and curse of reverence” in the slightly more contemporary format of a playthrough video! Big thanks to Aristides Instruments for making this possible!'

Guitar: 060/020 - Blackstar S1 100 6L6 - RME Babyface - Cubase.
Camera: Black Magic Pocket camera with Metabones speedbooster Nikon to MFT adapter.

Cant believe he was only 20 when he wrote this masterpiece.... Crazy skills.... Amazing how he is still so full of passiom when he plays it
MongoMitBart 1987 he’s a genius no doubt, he wrote these masterpieces without having any particular degrees in composition or any other academic courses
@@daniellongo7873 He's a music teacher since a long time. He probably was already studying composition at the time.
@@ItsNotaTuhmah But I think that he lacked a lot of theoretical understanding at the time when he was composing all this, and composed it "naturally" so to speak.
I seem to remember him talking about "Towards the pantheon", that Pytten said in the studio that the intro was disharmonic af, and that Ihsahn had then said that he wasn't aware, that it just "sounded cool", etc.
@@hermanessences This track features some more thoughtful writing. The melodic interlude with the solo guitar and the variation of the harmonic minor scale shows it.
This song was not written by solely by him, it really bothers me how much Samoth's contributions to Emperor just gets forgotten by people. Especially considering how he wrote one of their best stuff (The Wanderer.)
And he sings while he plays that "thing."
It feels so chaotic... but so melodic at the same time. The signature of Ihsahn and Emperor.
Same way I feel about Empty
It is so rare to see a black metal song in such complexity in terms of riffs and arrangement... Emperor is still alive and still unique... and Ihsahn, great musician.
All anthems songs are made like this, that's why it's still my best metal album of all times. Fast savage sophisticated complex and evil.
@@ratonhnhaketon4365 Best 2nd wave bm album imo
Undoubtedly one of the greatest Metal musicians of all time.
Devin Townsend , mikael akerfeldt
@@eden2esthar Dan Swano
I don’t think asked for a list...
Never had the ear for metal just has no feeling all I here is a bunch of noise but I respect the style. Hummer from smashing pumpkins is more like it .

No words to describe how important this song was and still is to my life. Most beautiful masterpiece ever written.
i feel that too
The mans a genius. So much sophistication in the melodies.
060 = Ihsahn's parts
020 = Samoth's parts
This song and these riffs are absolute. They are timeless and way ahead of the time they were thought of and coined on the track.
The most beautiful black metal song ever.
These guitars look amazing! Ihsahn is a master!
this song is madness
Love this video and song. Awesome riffs and it's really cool to see it being played up close. More classic Emperor playthroughs please.
What a master piece. After two decades of still sounds fresh. Emperor was one of the first extreme metal bands I listened to and one of those I always go back to.
i had to wait to 3 am back in 1996-97to catch metalheads on mtv and listen to this xd . then internet came and i spent one week downloading the videoclip. xD tough times before the light
But they were great times too, because the music scene was not oversaturated as it is today!! It was always a great reward to finally get the music you’re seeking after struggling to find it, haha!! I really miss the tape days, and unfortunately now CDs are dying out
the mini-cd had a cd-rom videoclip on it, it was the best way to watch it...
God Bless You :)
Emperor, the CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED alchemists of BLACK METAL!!!!
A timeless masterpiece that gets better every time you listen to it.
Firstable, you've got to write this, with vocals and arrangment...and tons of extra complex riffs.
Then you record the song in studio.
After what you play it live AND SING ON IT!!!!
And at the end my son, you became a black metal god for eternity.
This man is one of the greatest songwriter ever...
I saw Emperor last night in Melbourne, the crowd was going off. They added a second show as the first sold out. They played encores, awesome.
I've seen them 5 times since 2014. I can burn with strength now.
This Video Illustrates Why Ihsahn was featured in his own Guitar World column... Light and Shade Indeed...Breathtaking mastery of the Tremolo pick style !
Nice to hear so productive music in action! For this he still creates something new and good luck. When the Emperor ended his career, his emptiness was in his place. Thank you for honoring our music!
Awesome chord work here! these harmonies are blowing my mind!
Ihsahn is a god on guitar.
you could say he is an ..emperor :D ..i'll see myself out.
I began to learn the riffs today and I never thought the piece is that difficult. But the beauty of chord progressions and dissonances motivates me strongly
Such a nice way to wake up :)
Sometimes I think of myself as a good musician...then I watch ihsahn play and feel quite humbled ; )
A masterpiece. Ihsah is such a talent!
Perfection from the master. I love it.
One of my main influences as a guitarist and musician.
goddamn masterpiece.
Masterpiece, just insanely good and original. Genius, No doubt
Master!!!
Amazing composer !!!!
What a fucking god! Ishahn is the most underrated musician in Black Metal.
perfektné ! perla nórskeho black metalu !!!
Forever the masterpiece.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 MARVELOUS
I LOVE his guitar tone.. When he hits the high notes it squeals. You hear it a lot in Emperors "empty" track..
I'm no Black Metal fan, but always loved this song, since I saw it on MTV
Emperor is different from most black metal bands
The best Black Metal band ever
The King of Darkness!!! the Emperor master Ihsahn total respect lml
Perfection
All hail the Emperor.
nice guitars and riffs
AWESOME
6:09 - ah, so that's how Ihsahn falls asleep. Now we know that.
Dopo oltre 20 anni dal primo ascolto, mi viene ancora la pelle d'oca.
Phenomenal. No other words needed
...wtf...this is great....a genius!
Master Mind!
need more!!!
Pure magic
whether one likes this genre of music, this is TALENT.
this should be appreciated for what it is, TALENT, unlike most of the garbage that is popular today.
watching him playing makes one feel that it is easy to play this song, but believe me, it is not.
You sir are right, especially everything off of Prometheus, except for the use of 7 strings, those pieces are a challenge among the rest of Emperor's catalog.
Great!
Massive and Awesome!!!!!!!!!
Masterpiece, never other equal
brilliant!!!
4:27 Riff
THANK YOU
Masterclass of black metal.
The gloss black 020 is the bomb! 💣🤤
All hail the Emperor! \m/
the arm stamina is strong with this one,)
Es como oír un vals oscuro hermoso
My god, this tune is as sick today as it ever was. I've seen this playthrough so many times and it's always a ... remember the cover art for Pantera's Vulgar Display of Power? That's what this song does to me every time I hear it. Ihsahn is inspired.
insane
masterpiece! \m/ \m/
Killer
1:09-1:23 is pure genius
I was always wandering how come the right hand of a guitar player like himself is not tired.. when I play like this for half a minute
Black metal + 020 = dream come true :O
HAIL IHSAHN . THE BEST GUITAR PLAY FROM BLACK METAL ,\M/
What about Abbath and Samoth ?
Samoth wrote half of all Emperor material up until IX.
Yeah, but the most impressive material was on IX and that was all Ihsahn.
No. They wrote that album 50/50 with Samoth. The only album written by Ihsahn alone was Prometheus.
Actually, no, Samoth had nothing to do with the songwriting. He was never credited for it in the liner notes.
Agggaaainn arggghaaain precisely opus played
To me the backing track is too loud, I can't hear the guitars being played, sounds almost like CD being played. Would like to hear the guitars louder.
mimimimimi
Wow!! would like to hear without the backing track. left me hanging without that crazy lead solo haha
🤘🤘
Nice!!
One of the best guitar players ever
he wrote this 20 years ago. the bastard :)
And wrote it when he was 19 or 20 years old.
@@ratonhnhaketon4365 a few of these musicians had classical training from early age. it is outstanding but its tricky like the internet, you easily believe those are just superhumans. but theyare "just"classical trained musicians who practise a fucking lot. edit: thats also why isahn is a music professor in norway now.
@@KingCrimson82 i knew them 19 years ago or so, i still own their discography on CDs (except some EPs), so i didn't discovered them yesterday in the internet and believed they are superhumans or something, we're just talking about black metal musicians, wich are not supposed to have classical training, if you're following the black metal movement from the beginning.
Edit : and thanks for the information.
Edit 2 : And another thing, practicing a fucking lot doesn't mean you can compose shit. There's so many talented and excellent musicians in many genres of music, who are just capable of playing what others write.
finally atmospheric metal w/ talent and awsome chord patterns.
yeah, finally, 20 years ago.
Ishahn should remaster Anthems.....modern technology would do this record justice and the mixing would make the record far more cinematic.
Hope to see Emperor Live here in Brazil next november!!! 🤘🏻
First time in south america! Ihsahn Will see what insanity means! Hail the horde! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Masteeerrr🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
Samoth s guitar OMG!!!
In one song, there are more notes than in the entire rap music genre.
Awesome to see, I play the opening a little differently, but to the same effect. I'm so glad he isn't cheating with his picking, he's locked right at tempo at full speed. Excellent
So fucking good!
Right hand: " damn that was some good ass snow"
I wish he did these for keyboards...
Fucking awesome!
fucking genius
FUCKING LEGEND!!! 🔥
Technical Black Metal
As fenriz says, he was possessed when he recorded this in studio ,👹
Please keep the camera still! Next time get a tripod or something.
This video says 'video not available' for me on all platforms and wont show in search, but I can watch it on xbox youtube. Any idea why?
Are these the Aristedes Bareknuckles????
Can anyone tells me what kind of overdrive pedal he used?
Satan
@@brianshade5079 Say tone?
La mera piola
I can't hear any differences with the album, it's just playback?
Yes
Unbelievable song.
The solo is missing, though...
