Anyone ever hear of "Emperor Penguin" refered to in this way before?
I came across this when I was looking at and archived version of the Phantom Power bio from TheHip.com.

>>>And then there's the band's patented gregarious groove-which I've come to call "The Hip Pocket"-that's locked in and unloaded all throughout songs like the deliberately churning "Membership," the snarky "Vapour Trails," and the slamming "Emperor Penguin" (known to some of the devoted Hip faithful as "Tremolo"). <<<
I remember hearing that word being tossed around by diehards in line before the secret show in London. I had no idea what they were talking about. I figured it was a nickname for the accelerated jam the boys play during 100th or something, didn't realize it was a nickname for Emperor.

As always, good work Dana!
Yeah, apparently no one here is among the "devoted Hip faithful" Confusedcratch:
Yes I remember them referring to Emporer Penguin as Tremelo, along time ago on the Ship someone mentioned it I'm pretty sure......
Finally the "devoted Hip faithful" show up. :lol: Thanks Summiteer!
