DELUXE DOUBLE 180 GRAM GATEFOLD WHITE VINYL EDITION OF BURZUMS 8TH ALBUM.
It’s
been 11 long years and now the world will finally see the return of
Burzum. The highly anticipated new album is entitled Belus after the
name of the ancient European solar deity of light and innocence. Belus
is Burzums 8th studio album, and the sound and music of the new album
can best be compared to the music of some of the old Burzum albums; in
particular the ground breaking Hvis Lyset tar Oss and the atmospheric
brilliances of Filosofem, only the ambient parts present on these albums
has been almost completely left out on Belus. Belus is a hard hitting
and melodic guitar driven album and will firmly keep Burzum at the helm
of the metal / black metal scene and arguably his best album to date.
Burzum says of the new album and his style of music:
"My
ambition with Belus is to create something I -- and hopefully others
too -- can listen to for years and years to come without ever growing
tired of it, and at the same time to share with my audience the
experience of getting to know Belus, as he might have been perceived by
the ancient Europeans. I am aware of the black metal association with
the name Burzum, and I have no real and serious problem with that, but I
personally see no reason to place Belus in any category. I think Belus
musically transcends all existing categories, but if I have to choose
one -- and for the sake of simplicity -- I will simply place it in the
metal category".
