I asked my parents to buy this record for me when it was released. (I used to live in a small village far from record stores) The salesman looked at them and said "I can't believe that people listen to this". My parents were ashamed at that comment and never bought me another album. I'd say to this day that this album is in the top 10 of my collection.
Guys like this who were just born to do it often grow to resent their own natural gifts. It sucks that he feels that way about his own music, but I mean he wouldn’t be Varg if he didn’t
I just walked about 9 km through the woods along the river listening to this album with headphones. And all my problems of the day were left behind, depression was gone instantly, although the music itself is depressing
Distracts you and keeps the mind calm walking and listening to music creates serotonin and other chemicals..his music is equivalent to an chill pill 💊 calming...he's releasing his own depression it's therapy!
thats the point of a one man band tho, like, they are thousands of these in the bm or blackened dm scene.. some of which are, to my very own opinion, a hundred times better than burzum.
DJ Mixarace Serpent Column no doubt. It takes several listens to get used to it but man oh man is it something else that touches me deeply. His ep « indicta » is a masterpiece to me, mirror in darkness is also fantastic and his latest ep came out a couple days ago, it’s great aswell
@@erradate6425 Your opinion is moot, Burzum is a legend, he was a part of this from the start, he is foundation, your references probably references Burzum as inspiration. Keep your opinions to yourself or Varg will be burning your church...

I don't think he's a genius. If he was a genius he wouldn't have so many shitty albums. He had an artistic sense. He was able to channel the spirit of black metal for some period. As a musician he's not very talented imo. This album is amazing though.
@@goblinsdammit Being a genius is a title you achieve, not an opinion from someone else while you not liking those "shitty albums" is you being subjective. You can't decide if he's a genius or not based on YOUR musical taste. Also, "as a musician he's not very talented"... I'm assuming that you made a reference to the fact that the instruments don't sound good enough or "talented". Isn't that the point of Burzum? Everything is supposed to sound "bad". I feel like you're saying that if he was really talented then there would be more technicality in his songs but that's just not true. His music sounding bad is a belief fueled thing, he's trying to spread a message and express his feelings... What I mean is that he's not bad at the instruments, or maybe he is who knows, but we can't decide that from the sound of his music since making it sound weird was the intention.
Классика, чёрт побери!!) 1 и 4 треки-вообще идеальны по своему звучанию!!) а обложка альбома-считаю вообще одной из лучших в мире (Это картина Т. Киттельсена "Нищий"). Иногда слушаешь альбом, смотришь на обложку, и кажется-да, наверное в реальности я так и умру: на обочине дороги, одиноким, бездомным и никому не нужным, а последнее, что будет играть в наушниках-это Det som en gang var (в предсмертной агонии, вспоминая всю свою жизнь) и Tomhet (после остановки сердца)!!!
Брат!наши сердца будут стучать как барабаны призывая наших Богов пробуждающих нашу память и волю к борьбе,и неважно какой ты природы,бык или волк.Главное то,что хранит твое сердце а все остальное наносная перхоть и хуета не имеющая смысла!Слава Богам!
Not many know that Varg asked Hellhammer to borrow his drum set for the recording of “Hvis Lyset Tar Oss”. As it happened. It is the same drum set that was used in Mayhem’s “De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas”. One big lovely family!
слава богам!мы едины пока помним наши корни.Дерево без корня красиво до поры,и умерает стоя не склоняясь под ветрами.Но потеряв корни,дерево гибнет порой убивая тех потомков,которые это дерево срубили на корню.Слава нашим Богам и предкам!
The introduction and the conclusion of this album catapulted it to the top 5 of my best Black Metal albums of all time. Raw, atmospheric, hypnotic, deep and original.
I tried finding some other atmospheric black metal but this is just too good. Nothing compares. And he made it so young and with so little resources. Just goes to show its that internal flame that creates eternal art. Hail Varg.
Besides the fact that he was a murderer and arsonist, this is indeed pretty incredible. Intense and disturbing. One of a kind. (The opening track is so good)

I still remember listening to this album for the 1st time many, many, many years ago, when I was young. It was a jaw-dropping experience, especially when Tomhet started... instant goosebumps. I'm not even exaggerating when I say this album changed me and my music taste in general. I will listen to Burzum and black metal until the day I die. Hail Varg! Hail Black Metal!
I grew up with heavy metal in the early 80's. I got hold of Bathory, after that, Burzum and Darkthrone. I still listen to Burzum today, close to nature! Burzum kept me afloat!
for me , this is the GREATEST burzum and atmospheric BM album of all times! a transcendental masterpiece of vast forest psychedelic trance melodies of profound mythos !
1996 - 14 years old, one of the first cassettes that I bought, it was recorded with ABSU Barathrum Vitriol.... those times when mom and dad gave me coins to snacks to the school and I saved them to these masterpieces and the only Metal magazine in black and white (always 1000 copies in my country).
At least you were spending those few coins with really great music! I remember myself that I was doing just the same thing as you as a kid! but back in the seventies! just to get me some of the "KISS" albums! that were around then! just because at that time I really thought that there really wasn't any other better music around! but it's still good to see how at least some few things in the world have changed! for good! and even for much better! fortunately! now that I'm around 60!👍
I've never heard any black metal before. Came here after watching a documentary. But you know what? This is actually pretty good. Maybe even very good. I was expecting it to be un-listenable, but that's not true at all. Clearly some musical talent here.
@@ostapolkhovskyi3427 There are plenty. Total fucking mayhem, until the light takes us, true norwegian black metal etcetc.. Was interested what the specific movie that got him into black metal was.
Funny thing is, norwegians are really posh and almost nobody listens to black metal. I think black metal is just a very, very, very small percentage. They even look down on black metalists in the big cities... This is what happens when you turn a poor society into a posh society within one generation...
Yep, i truly get aggressive when i see "reaction video" suggestions today.. what does it even mean? we had to get it ourselves and then socialized with likeminded people. whats the motive? showing people how they should react and perceive things. how miserable is this even,
@@KingCrimson82 It's the more female mentality of looking to other people to see how they respond to things, looking for approval. and picking up and responding to social pressure. Male mentality is more focussed and patient, seeking out music in the wild like a hunter, thinking outside the box and valuing authenticity.
It's just depressing, if the first four Burzum albums were new, they would be taken to be pushing the genre to its absolute limits. They're so much more diverse than 2000% of black metal since then.
The first sound out of this album gives me goosebumps. I got this on the original marbled vinyl on release when I was 15 and it is safe and well. Best album he made in my opinion.
This is the 2nd Burzum record I am listening to, the first one being Filosofem. Gotta say Varg was a genius, whatever the man is, crazy, twisted, criminal, but a genius for sure.
Coming to this music after a lifetime of rock and metal, but never hearing this. Amazingly, it still sounds as if it could have been recorded yesterday. Could be a brand-new release, rather than one of the originals. There's definitely something special and magical here. Only the really good stuff ages like this.
Few times in human history, younger, naive artists, express their understanding of the world around, within and beyond them in the most prolific & groundbreaking manner. Oblivious of the gravity in that inspiration, they simply let the talent go on its own path, grow & evolve as an individual unit. Just like a natural phenomenon that triggers a reaction and then moves towards chaos, decline and regeneration.
I agree completely. I think evidence for that thought is the art itself. Listen to the first two emperor albums Vs the last two. Darkthrone, Satyricon, Abigor, Blut Aus Nord. Perception changes with age an with age comes more experience which leads to more caution on occasion.
@@revenge213 Де Мистерис Мэйхема и рядом не стоял. Life Eternal и тайтлтрек достойны внимания, остальные треки слабы, Атила не сравниться с Варгом как вокалист, сорян. Панцерфауст, Трансильваниан Хангр Дарктрона и Лунарная Поэзия Nokturnal Mortum пожалуй единственное что я бы поставил рядом.
The rumor I heard is that Varg actually lit his hair on fire and doused himself with kerosene before each verse, which he sang outside beneath a rain-water catch shower to extinguish himself before he succumbed to the flames, but he never checked the level of water before beginning the process just to make sure he had his edge on.
This single handedly created atmospheric and Depressive Black Metal . Phenomenal album from start to finish . An absolute masterpiece…. Freezing cold ambiance throughout it , as if life as we know it is about to end .
I swear when I listen to Det som enagang var (especially intro) the temperature in my room drops. And yeah, that riff is fcking amazing, simple but amazing.
"Det som en gang var", it was my first contact with black metal, after so many years i still can see myself sitting with my brother in thr room listening local radio station and... i got this track straight in my head. And it won't go out from my head 💪🤘🤘🤘
Смотрю на облогу и вспоминаю как первый раз слушал этот альбом на кассете, у меня тогда был прикол слушать стафф и втыкать в ковер-арт, там он был растянут, но атмосферу передавал так же)

I grew up with heavy metal in the early 80's. I got hold of Bathory, after that, Burzum and Darkthrone. I still listen to Burzum today, close to nature! Burzum kept me afloat!
Thank you BMP for supporting Burzum at this days . Great job. One of the best Album of Varg.
nice pfp
@@sectoid-with-internet-access thx
for me , this is the GREATEST burzum and atmospheric BM album of all times! a transcendental masterpiece of vast forest psychedelic trance melodies of profound mythos !
seeing in youtube at: BURZUM PLAYING PINK FLOYD thanks
Det som en gang var makes me feel powerful emotions, puts me in a deep trance....
listen to Burzum : Aske!
" burzum aske " album..
i will NEVER forget hearing Inn i slottet fra droemmen the first time around 1996 on mushrooms. a truly mythical experience.
Wow mushrooms with black metal!

Perfect album! Burzum forever, cheers from Bolivia, Southamerica 🇧🇴!
1996 - 14 years old, one of the first cassettes that I bought, it was recorded with ABSU Barathrum Vitriol.... those times when mom and dad gave me coins to snacks to the school and I saved them to these masterpieces and the only Metal magazine in black and white (always 1000 copies in my country).
That's awesome!
At least you were spending those few coins with really great music! I remember myself that I was doing just the same thing as you as a kid! but back in the seventies! just to get me some of the "KISS" albums! that were around then! just because at that time I really thought that there really wasn't any other better music around! but it's still good to see how at least some few things in the world have changed! for good! and even for much better! fortunately! now that I'm around 60!👍
Wauw

I've never heard any black metal before. Came here after watching a documentary. But you know what? This is actually pretty good. Maybe even very good. I was expecting it to be un-listenable, but that's not true at all. Clearly some musical talent here.
which documentary?
@@nesageera I remember a film about black metal. Just try something like "documentary about black metal" etc.
Try "Hoth - Passage into Entropy" I don't know why, but when I've read your comment, I've remembered about this song.
@@ostapolkhovskyi3427 There are plenty. Total fucking mayhem, until the light takes us, true norwegian black metal etcetc.. Was interested what the specific movie that got him into black metal was.
@@nesageera Until the light takes us is named after this album(If the light takes us), so probably that one.
Typical norwegian weddings song !
@@bruedero r/woooosh
It sounds more like the untergang of Norway.
"I now... declare you... husband...and WIIIIFE, AAARRRRGH AARRRGH!"
Undergången ....
Funny thing is, norwegians are really posh and almost nobody listens to black metal. I think black metal is just a very, very, very small percentage. They even look down on black metalists in the big cities... This is what happens when you turn a poor society into a posh society within one generation...
Ооо, дааа! Это первое что я услышал из блэкметала ещё в школе и это осталось со мной на всю жизнь через десятилетия!

Where did the '90's go?! God damn, great time to grow up and experience all the music
a lot of baaaaad music in the 90's kid...
Yep, i truly get aggressive when i see "reaction video" suggestions today.. what does it even mean? we had to get it ourselves and then socialized with likeminded people. whats the motive? showing people how they should react and perceive things. how miserable is this even,
@@KingCrimson82 It's the more female mentality of looking to other people to see how they respond to things, looking for approval. and picking up and responding to social pressure.
Male mentality is more focussed and patient, seeking out music in the wild like a hunter, thinking outside the box and valuing authenticity.
I suddenly decided to listen to this as if it was a newly released album.
Hola soy de la ciudad u
It's just depressing, if the first four Burzum albums were new, they would be taken to be pushing the genre to its absolute limits. They're so much more diverse than 2000% of black metal since then.
Aye discord buddy
feels god
@@charliepotter100 except mgla
My brother's been listening to this album nonstop at top volume and now it's stuck in my head.
The first 6 albums definitely have that effect.
The Father of Atmospheric Black Metal
And huge influencer for Depressive-Suicidal Black Metal
@Diego this exact album was an influence for DSBM. Not saying it was the only influence, but it is still a solid point
The best burzum album by far. The atmosphere here is terrific.

The first sound out of this album gives me goosebumps. I got this on the original marbled vinyl on release when I was 15 and it is safe and well. Best album he made in my opinion.

Classic, best Burzum album
This is the 2nd Burzum record I am listening to, the first one being Filosofem. Gotta say Varg was a genius, whatever the man is, crazy, twisted, criminal, but a genius for sure.
It's true , it's damn true
He wants folk like me dead, and it doesn't stop me from coming back to this.
honestly he was just defending himself

have a look on TH-cam at VARG VIKERNES SATAN 14TH thanks
Coming to this music after a lifetime of rock and metal, but never hearing this. Amazingly, it still sounds as if it could have been recorded yesterday. Could be a brand-new release, rather than one of the originals. There's definitely something special and magical here. Only the really good stuff ages like this.
Yep, this music will never die, always be in, and never age.
Now i see why Burzum has to be #1.

Probadly the best ever black metal album!

Best Black metal record of all time
@Diego why do you post this everywhere? Everyone knows that Varg is not a satanist.
Varg is clearly a kiddy diddler
Few times in human history, younger, naive artists, express their understanding of the world around, within and beyond them in the most prolific & groundbreaking manner. Oblivious of the gravity in that inspiration, they simply let the talent go on its own path, grow & evolve as an individual unit. Just like a natural phenomenon that triggers a reaction and then moves towards chaos, decline and regeneration.
Better add names, dates and events to your story, else it is pompous BS.
@@MrFDdude Absolutely agree that it could be perceived as such by the slow-witted.
I agree completely. I think evidence for that thought is the art itself. Listen to the first two emperor albums Vs the last two. Darkthrone, Satyricon, Abigor, Blut Aus Nord. Perception changes with age an with age comes more experience which leads to more caution on occasion.

Согласен.
не самый,но один из
@@revenge213 Де Мистерис Мэйхема и рядом не стоял. Life Eternal и тайтлтрек достойны внимания, остальные треки слабы, Атила не сравниться с Варгом как вокалист, сорян. Панцерфауст, Трансильваниан Хангр Дарктрона и Лунарная Поэзия Nokturnal Mortum пожалуй единственное что я бы поставил рядом.
Um dos melhores álbuns de Black Metal de todos os tempos!
The sound that Varg makes at 26:29. LMFAO!

Ha! It was disturbing, and yet hysterical

Within us lays the memory of the old ways Varg expressed it through modern art, absolutely Brilliant! Respects Maine Hermit
I definitely listen to this album over a hundred times a year. The first time was in 1998, in K7.
I wonder how this screaming is possible without being on fire
me too
church fire?
The rumor I heard is that Varg actually lit his hair on fire and doused himself with kerosene before each verse, which he sang outside beneath a rain-water catch shower to extinguish himself before he succumbed to the flames, but he never checked the level of water before beginning the process just to make sure he had his edge on.
@@zamsden okayy dude
@@zamsden you probably had sonic unlocked in smash 64 too
One of the best black metal albums of all times :) Varg is a genius :)
After this album, the Atmospheric Black Metal born
This. Enough said.
the artist who made the album cover is called theodor kittelsen. a famous norwegian artist (my nephew is named theodor in his honor)
This single handedly created atmospheric and Depressive Black Metal . Phenomenal album from start to finish . An absolute masterpiece…. Freezing cold ambiance throughout it , as if life as we know it is about to end .
From thundering black metal to a dreamy ambient track. A musical masterpiece by one man.

I'm falling in love with this album
Anna seeing on TH-cam at VARG VIKERNES SATAN 14TH
The intro song det som engang var is incredibly good. My favourite black metal song ever.
Люблю под это заниматься ремеслом: плести кольчугу, собирать доспех из стальных пластинок, отливать из бронзы молот Тора.
This was my introduction to BURZUM.
This album will always have a special place in my 🖤
Today this masterpiece turns 25 years old.
I swear when I listen to Det som enagang var (especially intro) the temperature in my room drops. And yeah, that riff is fcking amazing, simple but amazing.
Perfect motivational album for when I go to the gym and work out.
This is the greatest black metal album of all time.
Its really hard to say what is my favorite Burzum album, but gun to my head this is probably it
A pivotal point and a milestone in the development of Black Metal.
16:48 When the drum pattern kicks in. I LOVE THIS!
I Like to jam this at night when everything is silent.
Same
"Det som en gang var", it was my first contact with black metal, after so many years i still can see myself sitting with my brother in thr room listening local radio station and... i got this track straight in my head. And it won't go out from my head 💪🤘🤘🤘
“Death finds his way unimpeded, be the path narrow or rocky“ what a powerful line!

«Inn i slottet fra droemmen» reminds me of trip to Italy, rainy days near Padova. I can't explain this association
I'm Italian....why Padova?
@@mattcosta294 sorry, I might not understand your question properly. I just had a vacation in Abano-Terme. I can't say surely I listened to this song there but anyway now it is combined with this place in my head
The monument. Countless nights spent outside wandering with this album on the loop.
Still the best Black Metal album of all times!
Followed by Darkthrones "A Blaze In The Northern Sky", Mayhems "Live In Leipzig" and all the weird Les Légions Noires stuff.
I listened this album when I was 20 years old and I am listening at this moment. I can feel how it transports me to those times when I was 20 and everything was Black Metal, Moosh and Beers with my friends!!! Beautiful moments🤘🏻😈🤘🏻
