Our Take

Ah, Hlidskjalf, the latest offering from the enigmatic Burzum, is an album that is sure to leave listeners scratching their heads in confusion or admiration, or maybe a bit of both. Varg Vikernes, the mastermind behind the project, has crafted an album that is both complex and simple, dark and light, heavy and ethereal. It's like taking a rollercoaster ride through a haunted forest while listening to a Gregorian chant on repeat.

The production on Hlidskjalf is sparse yet powerful, with Vikernes' haunting vocals cutting through the mix like a knife through butter. The instrumentation is minimal, with each note carefully placed to create an atmosphere of otherworldly beauty. It's like being transported to a different realm, where the rules of music as we know them no longer apply.

The lyrics on Hlidskjalf are as cryptic as ever, with Vikernes delving into themes of ancient Norse mythology, mysticism, and the nature of existence itself. It's like reading a poem written by a madman in the middle of the night, with no one around to hear it but the trees and the stars.

In conclusion, Hlidskjalf is a bold and daring album that pushes the boundaries of black metal into uncharted territory. It may not be for everyone, but for those willing to take the journey, it's a musical experience like no other. So grab your cloak and dagger, and prepare to be blown away by the sonic sorcery of Burzum.
