In a recent interview, legendary Emperor frontman Ihsahn reminisced about the band's pioneering tours in North America.
He described their early years as a young and inexperienced group, who didn't have a well-planned touring schedule.
I think for us, we were still so young, back in 1999, and still quite inexperienced," Ihsahn recalled.
We didn’t really do the extent of touring that many of the other bands did, for different reasons." Their North American tours took them to several countries, including Japan, Australia, Canada, and the US.
The band's extensive touring experience has taken them across multiple continents.
They've been to Japan, Australia, North America, South America, and have even headlined festivals in extreme underground music scenes.
To commemorate their groundbreaking tours, Emperor will perform on March 4th at Streaming for Vengeance, where fans can catch Ihsahn live.
