"Hlidskjalf" is the sixth studio album by Burzum, released in 1999 and now available in CD format from BACK ON BLACK. This atmospheric masterpiece marks a significant departure from Burzum's earlier black metal roots, embracing dark ambient and neoclassical influences to create an immersive soundscape. Composed entirely while Varg Vikernes was incarcerated, "Hlidskjalf" stands as a testament to his creative resilience, featuring haunting melodies and ethereal synth arrangements that transport listeners into mythic realms inspired by Norse mythology. The album has been praised for its emotional depth and unique approach within the genre.
Burzum, founded by Norwegian musician Varg Vikernes in 1991, is one of the most influential projects in black metal history. Known for pioneering atmospheric elements within extreme music, Burzum?s early works like "Filosofem" and "Hvis Lyset Tar Oss" are considered classics that shaped the direction of modern black metal. Despite controversy surrounding Vikernes himself, Burzum's musical legacy remains profound.
