Scattered Ashes: A Decade of Emperial Wrath

The blurb:

"The undisputed kings of Black Metal return with what will be their last release. This killer collection is a double CD that features a "Best Of" disc compiled by the band themselves and a rarities disc that features rare and unreleased material to completely satisfy the collector. A beautifully packaged double CD."

The second disc contains all the covers Emperor have recorded for tribute albums, except for the Celtic Frost cover Massacra.

On disc one, tracks 4 & 5 are from the Emperor EP, and track 8 is the In the Nightside Eclipse version. Track 9 is from Emperial Live Ceremony.

On disc two, tracks 1, 3, 4 & 5 are from the tribute albums In Conspiracy With Satan (the intro is edited), Darkthrone Holy Darkthrone, A Tribute to Mercyful Fate and Originators of the Northern Darkness respectively. Tracks 2 & 6 are from Thorns vs Emperor, track 7 is from the limited IX Equilibrium digipak, tracks 8 & 9 are from Wrath of the Tyrant, and track 10 is from the Nordic Metal compilation CD. Tracks 11 & 12, and 13 & 14 are from the respective As The Shadows Rise and Reverence EPs.
