* CreativeDifferences: A true case of incompatible musical preferences and visions for the future of the band was the cause of their split. Ihsahn wanted to keep going further and further towards ProgressiveMetal, while Samoth and Trym wanted to go for a more aggressive and industrial-influence style, and neither side would budge. Their post-Emperor output best illustrated where they were all at; Ihsahn's solo career was progressive metal with some black metal elements here and there, while Samoth and Trym made Zyklon (which they had started as a side project) their main gig and played industrial death metal with a lot of more aggressive black metal elements.

* LimitedSpecialCollectorsUltimateEdition: Blood Music produced a vinyl box set of Emperor's work that served as this. It outdoes their previous Music/{{Moonsorrow}} set as the largest metal retrospective ever produced, and includes a staggering ''twenty-four'' [=LPs=] and one 7" single. Part of this is because every single LP was pressed at 45 rpm, but they also went all-out and included everything the band ever recorded. (One could, however, argue that Neurot Recordings' Music/{{Neurosis}} box set, ''Strength and Vision'', outdid Emperor's box set for sheer scale, coming in at nineteen 33-rpm [=LPs=] and eleven [=CDs=]. There's more music on the Neurosis box set, but the Emperor box set still has more [=LPs=] in it.)
