Were you sad when Emperor split? Still craving for more black metal in that distinctive Emperor sound? Well here's something you might have missed. Released the same year as "IX Equilibrium", "The Red Jewel" is the album from Charmand Grimloch, Emperor's keyboard player at the time. Not only that, but Emperor's Trym is also sat behind the drum kit here. This Tartaros album sounds almost identical to "IX Equilibrium" with the addition of some crazy, spacey and psychedelic keyboards added for good measure. Top stuff. Get it.

This defiantly sounds like an attempt to sound like Emperor, and I think they have no shame in that fact.
The keyboards are indeed a odd at times, and the wail of the female voice, I kept expecting her to lead into the theme from the original Star Trek! WTF was that! 
I will stick with Emperor if I want to hear Emperor.

No... your timeline is wrong. This album and "IX Equilibrium" came out at the same time pretty much. This guy played keyboards for Emperor at the same time.
There is a good chance that Charmand influenced Emperor's sound, seeing as the first Emperor album with him playing keyboards was the first to sound like this.

OK, it sounds like IX Equilibrium with odd keyboards and Star Trek theme background chic!
