The tour artwork features Emperor’s seminal 1994 album In the Nightside Eclipse, with the poster mentioning that the outing will feature the album prominently. The Norwegian black metal pioneers haven’t released a studio album since 2001, though they have maintained a live presence throughout the years and embarked on their first US tour in 15 years back in 2023.
The tour also touts big support acts in Wolves in the Throne Room and Agalloch, two forerunners of the US black metal scene. Wolves in the Throne Room most recently released the Crypt of Ancestral Knowledge EP in 2023; meanwhile, Agalloch have only played a handful of live dates over the past couple years since re-forming in 2023 following an eight-year hiatus.
