Heavy Song of the Week: Ihsahn's "Pilgrimage to Oblivion" Is Symphonic Black Metal at Its Finest
Briefly

"At the heart of what I do is black metal, extreme distorted guitars and screaming, but since the earliest Emperor recordings you'll hear the keyboard parts influenced by classic soundtracks by the likes of Jerry Goldsmith, John Williams, Bernard Herrmann, John Carpenter, and so on."
"The first single 'Pilgrimage to Oblivion' arrived in these parallel formats, and it's the metal version that we've chosen for our Heavy Song of the Week, as it illustrates the vast, genre-spanning creativity of the Emperor founder."
