Yeah this fuckin sucks hard.

Filosofem is the only decent album he's put out. I don't know, maybe he's got to stab someone again?

True. I heard that one of Arditi's releases also originally had it on the cover. But then it got censored.
Could be just a rumor though
Doesn't sound like Arditi. My guess is rumour.

I got more out of staring at the old weird stain on my desk than listening to this. It could be an old fossilized booger, it could be a squashed bug, it could be ink, but I'll never know because I stopped listening to that 25 minutes in. Thank god for the stain that made me stay that long.

It's mediocre ambient. It would be better if Varg didn't sound like he had a cold through the entire album.

Actually it's a good ambient album! .. I give it 7.8! .. You don't like ambient music it's your problem!

I listen to a massive amount of ambient music, and this is just absolute shit

My first full-length encounter with Burzum, and it's not bad. Of course, I had no expectations and I like most ambient stuff. If you can't take that your cult metal band takes a different approach that's your problem. I guess the MS staff needs to be a bit more open minded...

You know you really fucked the dog when this makes Metal Storm's list of worst albums and Umskiptar doesn't.

Never tried Burzum so I figured I'd start with the lowest rated album for shits and giggles. Honestly, this doesn't sound nearly as bad some people make it out to be. It's a little boring and simplistic, but it's not garbage. It is, however, rather monotonous; I'll give you that.

Despite the fact that I love Ambient & Dark Ambient genre, this album as an ambient is pure shit. Personally I think, after Hliðskjálf nothing creative has been released. It'll be better if he will give up on music at all & will find some other hobby.

It has its moments, but not something that I would listen to on the background and remember much from it.

I love ambient and folklore, mainly psybient but that's not the poin here, this album, the fractions I heard are somewhat mediocre but poorly produced, some of the reverberation is killing me, good to ok composition for the most part, it has it's heights for example The Reckoning of Man is very impressive. Production like I said however could've been better for certain sounds, especially the spoken words.

But boy seeing this discussion is pain in the butt, too many people pointlessly circle jerking here, it's a waste of time folks. But if this is quality entertainment for you then perhaps you have all the right to do so I guess.
