Candlelight

Candlelight is a UK based metal label that was founded by Lee Barrett. Known for its dedication to the genre, Candlelight has been a driving force in the metal music scene since its inception. In 2016, the label was acquired by Universal Records, marking a new chapter in its history.

With an impressive roster of *artists* and performers, Candlelight has consistently delivered high-quality releases that resonate with metal fans worldwide. The label's commitment to supporting emerging talent and pushing boundaries within the genre has earned it a reputation as one of the most influential labels in the industry.

Under the guidance of former owners Steve Beatty and Edward Christie, Candlelight grew into a powerhouse within the metal community. Their passion for music and unwavering dedication to their artists allowed them to build strong relationships within the industry and foster an environment where creativity thrived.

Emperor is a black metal band from Notodden, Norway. Formed in 1991 by *Ihsahn* and *Samoth*, they were pioneers in incorporating symphonic keyboard arrangements and orchestration into their music. This unique style quickly made them one of the most influential bands in the black metal scene. Over their 10-year career, Emperor released four full-length albums, showcasing increasingly technical and complex compositions. Their musical journey reached its pinnacle with the release of the "Prometheus" album.

Although Emperor disbanded in 2001, they reunited for live performances starting in 2005 and have continued to delight fans with selected shows and small tours ever since. The current lineup includes *Ihsahn* on guitar, keyboards, and vocals; *Samoth* on guitar; and *Trym* on drums.

With a sound that pushes boundaries and defies conventions, Emperor has left an indelible mark on the black metal genre. Fans of bands like Satyricon, Carpathian Forest, Immortal, Darkthrone, and Enslaved will find themselves drawn to Emperor's powerful music.

Prometheus: The Discipline of Fire and Demise is the fourth studio album by Norwegian black metal band Emperor. The album was nominated for a Norwegian Grammy Award for Best Metal album in 2001. This classic returns to vinyl as a half speed master done at the legendary Abbey Road studios.
