 | | Vikernes also claimed that there was a financial dispute over the profits from Burzum's first two full-length records (Burzum and Det Som Engang Var) as well as the first Burzum EP (Aske) that were released through Aarseth's record label, Deathlike Silence Records, but Vikernes urges that this was never a reason for the murder. |  | | The new Burzum, Vikernes claims, will be a continuation of pre-prison Burzum, specifically the "Filosofem" album. |  | | Vikernes has written lyrics for several songs by the band Darkthrone (Quintessence, As Flittermice as Satan's Spies, etc.) that make use of characteristics from old Germanic folklore. |

| | Burzum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Vikernes, an extreme right-wing white supremacist and Odalist, was instrumental in the crystallisation of early black metal, much of which is due to the infamy attributed to Vikernes since the murder of his former band mate (Grishnackh played bass on one of Mayhem's albums) Øystein Aarseth. |  | | Vikernes remained with Old Funeral for two years, deciding in 1991 to create a solo project instead, in which he could write and record a "more original and personal type of music" (some consider Burzum to be a progression of the band Uruk-Hai, for several of the same riffs are used in Vikernes' compositions). |  | | Vikernes' music is generally considered to be characterised by hypnotic repetition and simple yet profound song structures; this trademark sound has been present on Burzum's black metal and synthieval albums alike. |

 | | According to Vikernes, this album is supposed to act as a follow on to the Hvis Lyset Tar Oss album, with it's connection to certain Norse-Germanic tales (see the booklets of said releases). |  | | Varg Vikernes, the merry murderer also known as Count Grishnacht, was one of the leading figures of the early days of black metal, but has turned his back on the music he helped mould into the ugly blackened beast it has become now. |  | | It was like Vikernes wanted the listener to relax and take a break from all the feelings that the listener was overwhelmed with in the previous songs. |

 | | But it's Vikernes' terrified and excruciatingly painful vocals that are the striking part of the album. |  | | Vikernes' guitar riffing is fairly simple, melding a bit of disillusioned melody with tinges of the past, namely Celtic Frost and Bathory. |  | | The first half of the album is still within the expected realm of Burzum music: harsh, grating black metal with his signature guitar style, however a bit more trebly than necessary. |

 | | Both Möbus and Vikernes were able to play and record music in prison. |  | | Not long after getting out, Vikernes, who performs as the one-man black metal band Burzum, got into a dispute with one Øystein Aarseth, who was widely known as the godfather of the black metal scene in Norway. |  | | In an interview with an E-zine a few years ago, Vikernes explained that Cymophane — an Anglicization of the Greek for "the wave to appear" — is also the name of his record label. |

| | BNR Metal Pages -- Burzum |
 | | Though Vikernes was imprisoned in the early nineties, he continued to release music as Burzum (Filosofem was the last pre-prison album, recorded before his imprisonment though released afterward), but now confined to keyboard arrangements. |  | | From a musical standpoint, the opinion here is that the legacy of Varg the person will always be more lasting and noteworthy than that of Burzum the band. |  | | This is not to say that the music is inconsequential, as it is clear that much of the early work was enormously influential to the black metal scene that would blossom in the nineties (the post-jail Burzum recordings are mentioned a bit later below), and in some respects very interesting on its own merits. |

 | | ironically, Vikernes' inability yo use guitars in his current music, may suit his approach more in any case, offering him the chance to use ambient sounds to depict the troll-filled landscapes he want's his listeners to imagine. |  | | musically, Burzum was until Vikernes' imprisonment the blackest of black metal(long, gut-wrenching screams and hyperfast riffs), althrough the production quality of the count's six albums to date has progessed from a primitive murk to the latest in digital clarity. |  | | like Bathory(with whom Burzum share certain thematic and musical similarties), the band is more or less the work of one man, the norwegian Varg Vikernes also known by his stage name as Count Grishnackh. |

 | | Vocals are as usual the torn-out throat of a desperate spirit, Varg Vikernes screaming himself into distortion, but a distortion he uses to shred reality behind his music and direct the flow of it. |  | | Black metal moves into a more ambient journey style with this release, which uses groundbreakingly simple techno-inspired beats and simple, strobing guitars to create the atmosphere of darkness which defines the album. |  | | Drums have been replaced by a machine and keyboards are more clearly separated from the guitar than previously. |
