 BURZUM! "The White God"
OK, if one looks beyond the obvious racial slurs and other dimwitted ideas presented by that heathen wanker... I think this will be one of 2010's most interesting releases. If he holds only half of the height of "Snu Mikrokosmos Tegn", "My Journey To The Stars" or "Det Som En Gang Var"... equals a black metal meisterwerk.

All lengsel og sorg som Hersket Og de følelser som kunne Røres Er vekk... For alltid... Vi døde ikke... Vi har aldri levd

Well, by reading the text, I can think of various reactions. Is it good that he is doing 'metal' again? Is it really necessary to include old tracks and all? I mean, 'What once was' was already an album he did, so it's already done, as well as what the title itself says, it was, and not necessarily is anymore. Does he still have his voice? I don't know but I hope if he is doing metal again. Has he learned to play his instruments? We can forgive HIM, but the lo-fi and miss-played black metal of old has been already done for ages... I don't want to sound like if I prefered another synth or midi album, but...
Quote: The new album might differ from the old albums more than some might appreciate, but I hope not. Even if some of You might appreciate the old Burzum, I must be allowed to evolve, just like everybody else. Maybe You will like the new Burzum too. I will not do my best to copy and reproduce my old music, just to please somebody. I never did and I never will. If it sounds similar it is because it is made by the same person. If it sounds different it is because it is not the same music and because I have evolved.
I want to think that sounds good and in the right (:lol:) direction, but I think he sounds doubtful and therefore I doubt. I think, honestly, he could have come back for the commercial hit, but who knows with this man. One never knows with Vikernes. But if the music results in a further evolution following the path of Filosofem, it could be not good, but great.
I don't know. We'll see... but for sure I want to listen to it, now. Sorry for the long post.

the song-titles form a saying, I'm sorry that the word "statement" has been going on around here

I find it difficult to look beyond his statements. Still, I like Burzum's music and I will likely give the new album a spin.

Hmm... I am waiting with mixed emotions. The new BEHERIT album was boring, too... Wouldn´t have been 15 years ago maybe... Could be the same with BURZUM. Some bands should stay dead.
Except ARCTURUS of course.

"When I used the name "The White God" for my next album I had no idea it would stir up so much fear and irrational emotions. To me this is just a nickname of Baldur, whom the album is all about. No ambiguity intended. The truth is I announced the release of The White God at this early point to ease the pressure on the burzum.org host. He was getting tired of having to tell individuals contacting him that he didn"t know when the next album would be due, what its name was going to be or anything else. With the article this problem was solved.
With a title including the word "white" it apparently isn"t possible to slip under the radar of the racist "Western" media. To take away their excuse to spread their anti-Varg/anti-Burzum hate-propaganda when (and before) the album is released I have decided to change the album title. These self-loathing fools have no interest in the music anyway, and because of that I don"t want their attention - and I won"t get it if I use a title that doesn"t give them an excuse to attack me.
The new title of the album is, as you might have guessed from the title of this article, Belus, the so-called Indo-European name for Baldur/the White God. I could have used any European name for this deity, but I chose this one because it is the oldest known name and because it is pan-European.
Belus will be released on Byelobog Productions March-April next year, with eleven new tracks; nine metal tracks and an ambient intro and outro, and about 50+ minutes of music (the long outro not included). The lyrics are all in Norwegian, but French and Russian translations will be available on burzum.org asap -- possibly even before the release of the album."
héhé, renaming it....

What? hahahah. I wouldn't have bothered to change the name. At least I'd have named it Baldur, which sounds better than Belus. Anyway there is already Daudi Baldrs which is about the same god I suppose.
April/march... interesting. Finally it will be retarded to may or june but anyway.
But, wtf, French and Russian? Not even an English one? I'm more than sure that he completely hates Spain and he thinks of it like the north of Africa (well, sometimes I do), so I wouldn't even have thought of a Spanish translation but, no English translation? This man is crazy. Oh, we already knew that. Anyway.

Yep, Daudi Baldrs means "the death of Balder" (which he probably meant as an allusion to the invasion of Judeochristianity, killing the light of heathen Scandinavia - indeed, the Christian priests on the cover to which the vikings kneel are quite similar to anti-semite cartoons of jews).
Belus - boring name. "The White God" was much better - someone thinking longer than his or her nose, or at least reading the press release, would understand that it was deeper than some sort of racist blundering. Appropriate though to release it on Byelobog Productions... since "Byelobog" literally means "the white god", haha.
Strange if the album doesn't contain German translations, since they all have since... well, the Misanthropy digis. No English translation - well, you do know that English is a negro language, just like the guitar is a negro instrument? Russian and French, those are pretty aryan though!
I'm still very much looking forward to it, even though the guy needs some serious training on dealing with modern media... or just shut the fuck up and play his music and AD&D...

I guess he choosed Belus because it´s slavonic name. (belasy, biely = white in slovak, bily = white in czech, biały in polish, белый (bielij fonetic) in russian) So it corresponds with that russian translation and everybody knows how strong is ´white slavonic trve national pride´ in Russia.

I'd rather get down & dirty with Crnobog, but that's just me...
I guess that there is a red thread running through the popularity of NSBM in Russia/East Europe, the burzum.org site being run by a Russian, and translating his lyrics into Russian... I'd not be surprised if all Eastern NSBM bands consider Vikernes to be their godfather, dad, uncle and mentor at the same time. Maybe even man-boy lover in the Hellenic NAMBLA-way, though they wouldn't admit it.
And also: Belarus, or Belorussia - White Russia in Swedish.
a bit OT, but I find the connections between all Slavonic languages very fascinating, seems like you can find the basic words everywhere. The "Chern-" or Chernobyl meaning dark, Crnobog being the Dark God, "krv" in Serbian means blood, add a vowel and it's blood in Czech or Polish or Ukrainian, hrvatski maybe, etc etc. "Their blood is ourselves, clean Slavonic blood" to paraphrase Tormentor. I guess Romania and Hungary are the odd ones out.

Heh, well actually, the first thing I thought when returning from Russia to Malmö (where a third of the population - 90.000 - are immigrants, mostly from Iraq and Bosnia and Denmark), was "hm... what an astonishing amount of Arabs and general middle Eastern fellows compared to the very white Moscow!". And since I'm not from Switzerland, that was not a complement on the behalf of Russia. I like falafel.
Heh, one guy in Russia, who was Ukrainian, asked me "doo yoo chave mutch probblemm hwiz immegrantz in Zweeden?" to which I answered "uhm... no, not me personally" and though "funny thing, my swarthy anti-semite fellow - if you'd go to Sweden, you'd be the problematic immigrant!". I figured that was not the time to discuss whether criminality is based on cultural/ethnological clashes or psychosocial/environmental issues; we'd probably disagree and he was quite bigger than me, pouring down a decilitre of Vodka in each sip.

Quote: Apparently my comparing of black metallers with the stereotypical Negro and homosexuals is not taken lightly in "the real world". Because of my thoughtless remarks I am, according to them or their readers, both a vile racist and homophobic, and should ideally be stone to death for being intolerant. Naturally.
The problem is that my remarks aren't really homophobic. What I do is simply point at the obvious facts; some black metallers dress, walk, talk, look and act like stereotypical homosexuals. Both the black metallers in question and the stereotypical homosexuals obviously buy their clothes, their make-up and jewellery from the same "laces & leather" shops. They wear the same clothes, the same make-up and the same jewellery. So they do dress and look like the stereotypical homosexual. End of discussion.
The funny thing is that I never really stated if this was a bad thing or not. Maybe I in fact think dressing and looking "gay" is okay, but perhaps not for black metallers, who think of themselves and try to present themselves as some sort of "dark warriors"? Who can tell? I surely never said anything about that in my article. So, when readers of my words react so strongly it is because they are homophobic: they obviously think that dressing and looking like homosexuals is a bad thing. Maybe they should take a look in the mirror and think for a minute before they start attacking me for being homophobic? say what? necrosexuality!  Quote: When it comes to the "racist remark" I can only apologize to You all. I obviously live in a different world, where one can discuss ones perception of reality without any fear of harassment; a world of tolerance and respect, a world of intellectual debate and honesty. Some of You apparently don't, so when I speak I must be careful. I must say, though, that if You don't like what I say to my fans on www.burzum.org, then please don't read or refer to my articles. It's a free world, and You are free not to read my articles. I want to point out that my so called "racist remark" was actually not intended to be racist or to offend anyone but the black metallers in question, whom I happen to know have indeed some strong views and opinions. It was purely meant to draw attention to how some black metal artists are more and more acting and living a lifestyle like the individuals they at least in private claim to despise. ... Thank You for the attention, and for being able to bring some colour to Your lives.
And he ends with a smiley. BURZUM with a smiley. Seriously, Varg. STFU.

 Well, actually there are a lot of immigrants in Spain, but they are not problematic because of being immigrants, but because of other things that can apply to a lot of 'whites'*.
*Personally, I think whoever is born is Spain (at least in the middle and south), is a lot of things but JUST white.
So, is there a lot of immigration in Scandinavia? I think that there will be more and more with the climatic change and all, in a not so distant future. With Spain the problem is that immigrants just have a lot of things for free and can do virtually what they want, there are bad laws on a few things.
Oh, and I like falafel but I like even more doner kebab, doner durum, and that shit. In fact I tend to like 'weird' food from other countries, but not from England it seems, hahahah. In Germany for example I ate very well.
