In short

Vegard Sverre Tveitan was seventeen when Emperor turned symphonic black metal into a genre, and has spent the solo career he began in 2006 taking it apart. After brought in a saxophone, Das Seelenbrechen left the metal out almost entirely, and the self-titled 2024 record was written and recorded twice over — once as metal, once for orchestra, two halves of the same story.

Where it sits

Ihsahn was born in 1975 in Norway. This tree dates Symphonic black metal from 1994, nineteen years later. Eight records here, 2006 to 2024.
