Country: Norway Genre: Black Metal Songlist: Lost Wisdom 0:05 Spell of Destruction 5:12 Channeling the Power of Souls Into a New God 10:17 Composed by: Varg Vikernes
You know what I found crazy in 1990´s " musical landscape " ? Mayhem live with Pelle and Hellhammer in late 1989/early 1990 playing " De Mysteriis Dom Sathanas " material already . Varg will never admit to this but he was highly galvanized by Arseth´s ( Pelle´s too ) views and musical vision .
@@eddiemperor You´re aware Mayhem released " Deathcrush " when Varg was probably still in Baghdad lusting after all those hot Iraqi teachers etc , etc ... yes ?
@@saraivatoledo1842 Euronymous had no vision. He copied bands from South America like Sarcofago, Holocausto, bands from Asia like Sigh and Abhorer, VON...bands already had this sound since mid 80s You think that Mayhem was the first band w this sound and image...Burzum was the first band to put Norwegian BM on the map.
@@beans8269 sure, might have been groundbreaking but to say he was an unparalelled musical genious is definetly an overstatement. Even in black metal Xasthur has better atmospheric albums, and I don’t consider him an unparalelled musical genious. Someone like guthrie govan is an unparalelled musical genious because of his insane technical skill and ability to improvise some of the best fusionjazz solos ever.
@@okkokarsama1596 maybe it is an overstatement but with the example you give you seem to think of musical genius as someone very talented at playing their instrument but in my opinion that has little to do with it. All what matters is song writing. Is nirvana considered one of the best bands of the 90s cuz of Kurt’s great playing skills, or songwriting skills? That’s what Varg was above average at
with the release of the first Burzum demo album,a dark and cold journey started that no one can reproduce again,no one can create the mood and the atmosphere that the Count created at that time.....
When we talk about demo tapes from black metal bands like Burzum, we're talking about very rare materials that nowadays cost a lot, from what I understood in Euronymous' store you could find demo tapes, I don't know exactly if they have demo tapes from Burzum were sold in Helveti while the store was run by Euronymous, instead I know about the album Burzum Promo 92 which was produced in a few copies and is an extremely rare material that could be purchased from Øystein's store at that time time. The role of the album Promo 92 was to promote the first debut album from Burzum which was to be released in March of 1992.
музыка Варга бесподобна, практичеки прародительница и атмосферика и жёсткого индастриала, и амбиента, и симфо, и много чего ещё, и кто бы что не говорил, один фиг, слышали ЭТО все!)
ну, она по СТРАШНЕЙШЕМУ звучанию и правда похожа на индастриал с долбящим киком, но всё же я не сказал бы, что имеет к нему особенное отношение. индастриал создавался в то же время, но всё же под влиянием совсем других банд из других частей света. но сходство определённо есть) а насчёт того, что музыка бесподобна - конечно, и это лишь доказало прошедшее время!
Cristian burned down the church in 92, because the cover of the 91 demo is the church destroyed? Did he already use artificial intelligence to create art?
I was the 666th like haha. Also it says it's from 91 but the cover appears to be of a church burning which would've been 92 or later, anyone know what's up with that?
Its all him. From what i remember reading a while back he would record each part separately and layer them cassette to cassette. Its one of the reasons why the audio is so low quality due to generational loss between the cassettes
To jest DEMO. I MIAŁO brzmieć chujowo. Dlatego można tego posłuchać na YT albo niegdyś z przegranej kasety, jak słuchałem ponad 20 lat temu, a nie płacić jakiemuś cwaniakowi za bootleg na płycie:) Ale historycznie to ciekawa rzecz.
that was the point of this demo. it was a reaction against the popular death metal of the time. he deliberately made it sound bad. and the people who understood, understood.
If you know the songs that are on this demo. They were later re-recorded. You can begin to really appreciate this demo. But yeah, coming from an outside perspective. I can easily see how this is unlistenable. It's definitely not the best representation for what burzum sounds like for a first time listener.
if you start getting into the genre with this ofc it will sound disgusting because you have to get used to raw sound, so i'd recommend checking out the debut album Burzum/Aske
It sounds this way because the music and recording was shaped that way duh. You don't even have to like bm or even be a musician to understand it's the tone that he was going for. The soundscape is used to elicit certain feelings and capture a vibe.
Bands like Master’s Hammer which had released their full length album by 1991, had better sound . I don’t think Burzum’s demo was innovative. I like the first album though - Burzum 1992 - but again I don’t think it had something new rather than burning churches 😅. Don’t get me wrong I like Burzum and also Mayhem but they got a lot of attention back then just because the crimes they committed. if We talk about musical vision they were far behind from being something original.
and you completely missed the point. Burzum, Darkthrone, Mayhem & Immortal DELIBERATELY sounded bad. they went out of their way to sound primitive, raw, ugly & unpopular. the entire point of the black metal movement was to roll back the clock, to take it back to 1983... the Hellhammer / Bathory era. it was a deliberate move from a bunch of musicians who were already able to play technical death metal (and had done so)
@@necrosadotor The albums also suck, overrated crap for 13 year old wannabe edgelords. If it wasn't for the drama, no one would care about this rubbish.

Listen to this on a 1890s gramophone player for the full experience.
writting Lost wisdom in 1991 when you look what the musical landscap was at that time is crazy, Varg is just built different

Dude had his own groove / vibe that is STILL untouched or unmatched. Nothing has ever been this frozen or frost bitten since!
Judas Iscariot came close.
@szarzyniecszczurzynski1902 yea close however time period was different. I'd say Clandestine blaze " church of atrocity " came close too.
I guess
Recordist: How raw sound it needs to be?
Varg: Yes
by recordist you mean that toy microphone he used
@@blackpanda32 dude, it's a joke, of course he had recorded it by himselves)
Sounds like should be an 8 bit Castlevania soundtrack. Love it more!
I remember finding a couple tracks off this demo on limewire when I was 13 and it blew my fucking mind
I got some tracks on Limewire and it blew my fucking hard drive.

It's cool that drums break the sound barrier
Varg is an unparalleled musical genius. Love him or hate him, he knows how to write black metal songs like no one else.
"unparalelled musical genius" XDDDDDDDD
he knew back then. most of his releases after he left the prison were meh. Belus was ok but the rest...
Filosofem was his peak imho.

Legend has it Varg recorded all the early Burzum tracks on a Remington shaver

i really like this sound quality, the worst the better
Goosebumps, throws me right back in time. Love how slow and evil it sounds.
with the release of the first Burzum demo album,a dark and cold journey started that no one can reproduce again,no one can create the mood and the atmosphere that the Count created at that time.....
this is truest trve kvlt ever exists
RAW. So raw, that I want to put it back into the owen.

The Ragnarok bootleg CD is the easy way to get these demo tracks and it sells for quite reasonable price.
Thank you for sharing! Love the raw sound
Damn... as crunchy as my cornflakes
91? He was a genius indeed
144p and then it's pure perfection!
My favorite album.. love BURZUM 🔥🤗🔥
As raw as you can get
This is absolutely amazing...
you gotta hand it to him , he made something pretty good all by himself with the crappiest equipment possible .
Varg Is genius
Sad that there were no vocals on this. It would've been magical to hear the raw, faint screams over the shitty lo-fi drumming
Exactlyy
Спасибо 🤝
Excruciatingly cool.
Legend. My early Youth
one of my fav demos

Hail Varg 🤘🏻🖤.
Varg is the lead where ever he goes
Drums of the URUK-HAI!
This is sooo damn raw
I Need the Toaster that he used for Recording
This is what music sounds like when you play it through one of those plasma balls from Spencer's and THAT'S fuckin' kvlt! 🤘
Excellent.
144p is the only way to watch this
It doesn’t really change tho

I thought that These tracks are from the Demo 2. Becuase on the Demo 1 you dont hear the drums that much 🤔
Demo 2 also contains demo 1 if i remember correctly

@@attilafuredi5224 Most black metal has terrible sound quality, even burzum's later albums sound lo-fi.

This is quite possibly, without exaggeration, the worst thing ive ever heard. This is what all the BM fanboys faun over? This?!? Good grief.
