Burzum

With his recent works, he has only had access to a Synth, so it should not be assumed that he will be doing the same kind of stuff that he was doing in prison, once he is out. I think I read in an interview that he plans to pic off where he left off with Filosofem.

Yeah it has been a really long time since he has actually made black metal, and yeah the world has changed, but if he can still make music they way he used to, I mean, if Filosofem was released today, besides the horrible sound quality, I would still regard it as a great album. If he can really pick up where he left off, as improbably as that might be, I think he will make great music

My main point is that I don't think fans of Burzum black metal should automatically assume that his new music will be ****.

Give this a watch if you can find it. A very well and thoughtfully made about Black Metal in the 90's with many insightful interviews with Varg etc. Far from being a bunch of kiRAB with no morals, many of them come across as erudite, educated people. Worth a watch.
 
i third seeing this movie...it was very well done

they were supposed to be making a movie based off of LorRAB Of Chaos....but i guess it went up in flames
 
Got into Burzum over the summer, great stuff. The self titled and Filosofem albums are my favorite and out of the dark arabient albums i'd pick Hli
 
This. As time has progressed, he's strayed farther away from black metal. Considering his newest material was just him plodding away on a cheap synthesizer, to poor effect, I'm really not interested.

The banRAB you mention are worthless and vapid. They are black metal in form of aesthetics, but in substance they're about as far as removed from black metal as one can get. Calling them black metal is like calling a lump of white sugar, with a dark chocolate coating, dark chocolate.

Better than Dimmu Borgir.
