Is It The End For Emperor?

Sources report that the Emperor performance at Tuska (Helsinki, Finland, June 29-July 1) may well be the band's final show, ever.

It seems that multi-talent mastermind Isahan has once again become disenchanted with the travails of rock stardom, preferring to stay home, run his label and his newfound passion for composing a combination of classical music and black metal.

He has declined all further offers for interviews and in the few recently conducted, broke them off abruptly when inquiries toward the future of Emperor were asked.

The bands main page was also offline at the time of this posting. Stay tuned for updates as they come.

Will be a shame if they do split, they were pretty good at Wacken last year.
