Burzum's ambient work

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Guilty. I do enjoy a lot of more chill-out kind of stuff like Queensrÿche, Symphony X, Evergrey, Candlemass, and even recent Katatonia...so I guess Varg's just fucking boring.

I had no idea that Symphony X and Evergrey were chill-out music. Thank you for this wonderful bit of enlightenment. :Spin:

They are compared to Sadus and Artillery.

Seriously, Solitude Dominance Tragedy is one of the best albums in my collection when it comes to just kicking back and zoning out.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

Well, yeah if you put it that way. But there's much better chill-out stuff. So, if you like Candlemass, I highly recommend you check out Reverend Bizarre, Orodruin and Wall of Sleep.

I'll put those on The Download List for when I get my new computer.

Running out of space?

 

[Lies and Perfidy]

Ran out. Every time I want to download something I have to delete porn or music. Luckily, I only ever download porn and music, so it works out.

Artili-who?
Burzum I do know however. I doubt Artiliwhoever are nearly as good though. A separate topic for that band would be wise.

Your custom title is "Knee-deep In Metal"!?

Good observation skills there Jean, have a merit point!

U SO FUNNIE!

I believe that his point was "If you're knee-deep in metal, then how do you now know who Artillery is?"

Well, that line is changed from a feature that was in the PC game: Doom. Many will agree that the game would appeal to and even fit well with the 'metal culture'. An in-joke for those old enough to remember the game.

Perhaps if one is only knee-deep in metal then one is not as knowledgeable as someone who is fully immersed in metal. oh well.

Okay, i will put Hlidskjalf on my wishlist....

 

[PrincessHades]

I like Rundgang um die transzendentale Saule deer Singularitat, as well as Dungeons of Darkness. I haven't checked out the two prison albums, or The Ways of Yore, though.

11-year bump. Good job!

Anyway, I think that the tracks on his black metal releases are good, but I don't think the full ambient albums are worth listening to more than for curiosity.

 

[Krow]

Yeah I cant imagine paying money for the ambient albums unless you're buying the last two on vinyl for their beautiful artwork. They're kinda cool background noise and all...

 

[Vilden]

I think Daudi Baldrs is a fine album, good to listen to when you play MtG, board games and what not. The swastikas on the artwork is a nice touch!
Hlidskjalf is more bland.

Generally, metal bands aren't the best source for dark ambient though.

 

[The Butt]

Daudi Baldrs and Hlidskjalf are awesome albums. The Ways of Yore, not so much.

 

[The Ozzman]

Yeah I really dig Hlidskjalf

 

[EspaDa]

Yeah, it has been done quite recently. For the record though, I love later Burzum, Hlidskjalf in particular. What's the best Artillery release?

This is the first time I see you used full punctuation mate. And it's not a negative remark, I just encountered this one accidentally.

Well his post is 11 years old so it's awhile ago.
