Emperor Concert History

1) Emperor was known as one of the most infamous Norwegian black metal bands during the early and mid-1990s. Samoth was jailed for 16 months for taking part in church burnings with Varg Vikernes (Burzum), along with other members of the Norwegian black metal scene. Drummer Faust was jailed for church burning and for the stabbing and murder of a homosexual man in 1992 (he was never suspected of it until 2 years later when he was arrested in 1994).
