Our Take

Having had a tumultuous relationship with the Black Metal community over the years, the controversial figure behind BURZUM, Varg Vikernes, returns with yet another offering to stir the pot. Enter "Balder's Død," an album that sees Vikernes taking a departure from his signature sound and instead delving into the realm of ambient folk music.

Gone are the blast beats and screeching vocals, replaced instead with delicate acoustic guitars and ethereal chants. The result is a haunting yet strangely beautiful collection of tracks that transport the listener to a mythical Nordic landscape.

The album's title track, "Balder's Død," is a standout moment, with its hypnotic melodies and lush instrumentation creating an otherworldly atmosphere. Vikernes' vocals, although restrained, still manage to convey a sense of longing and sorrow that is hard to shake.

Despite its departure from the traditional Black Metal sound, "Balder's Død" still manages to maintain a sense of darkness and intensity that is unmistakably BURZUM. It may not be for everyone, but for those willing to venture outside the genre's boundaries, this album offers a captivating and unique listening experience.

In conclusion, "Balder's Død" is a bold and unexpected move from BURZUM, showcasing Vikernes' versatility as a musician. Whether you're a die-hard fan or a curious newcomer, this album is worth a listen for its intriguing blend of folk and ambient elements.
