The album starts off like an endless void which builds into harsh Black Metal with a touch of depression and agony which is the reputed trademark of a Burzum album. From start to finish, this album is a roller coaster of emotions and raw music which will take you to a place deep into Middle Earth if you're a Tolkien fan. If not, it really doesn't matter as this album's depressive and aggressive combination will blow your mind towards the outer realms of Saturn. "Det Som Engang Var" (''What Once Was'') is medieval and transcends humanity and all links with the present world you live in. Read more ›› |

I love this so much, but i have to be careful how much i listen because i only have it on vinyl and i gotta keep it forever so yeah... Anyways this is old school burzum at its best (tied with filosofem), this has the perfect blend of ambiance and aggression that fucks with your brain!

It took me some time but I finally managed to tolerate Varg's screams. This album is great and I can hear the influence it had on modern Black Metal. Snu Mikrokosmos Tegn is one of his best songs.
---- Crackhead Megadeth reigns supreme.
