Burzum is a music project which was founded and created by Norway musician, Varg Vikernes. You may think of Burzum as a black metal band which they are pretty much but they are more than just metal. Varg makes a lot of instrumentals and ambient songs. He doesn’t just scream and growl in his songs either, he sings regularly in a lot of them too. His music is pretty medieval sounding. I know it may seem kind of wrong to support Burzum’s music ’cause you know that Varg Vikernes is a pretty evil and psychotic guy. When Varg was young, he murdered the singer of Mayhem and burned down some churches. It may feel a little uncomfortable supporting this guy’s music but man, I can’t help myself. The music of Burzum is so good. I’ve been a fan of them for a long while.

Thanks to Apple Music streaming, I got to stream all Burzum albums and I love ’em all really. Varg Vikernes maybe psychotic and the dude maybe a whack job but that guy is so talented musically, though. You should check out Burzum music yourself. I’m a pretty big fan of Burzum and have been for a while. It was Guitar World magazine that first introduced me to them so I got intrigued.
