Varg Vikernes - Soon To Be Released
In a recent interview with the Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet Varg Vikernes confirmed that he's soon to be released from prison. Here's what he said (roughly translated from Norwegian):
"I can confirm that I'm soon to be released" he told the paper.
The 36 year old will move to a small farm in Telemark, where his wife and 1,5 year old son has been living for the last couple of years.
"I barely haven't seen my son since he was born. Even though I hear his voice almost every day on the telephone it's really hard not to be present when he's growing up. I miss my family and I look forward to the day where I can work on the farm, make music, write books and be with my wife and child 24 hours a day - and live a normal family life."
To the question about him being ready for society, he responded:
"I'm ready for society - and I have been for many years. I've learned from my mistakes and I've become older. Now I just want to be with together with my family. My mind has never been imprisoned."

Um...Varg outta jail already? I'll believe it when I see it. The guy got 21 years in prison, tried to escape and stole a car, guns, knives, and grenades from a military complex, and is absolutely hated in his country- especially by the government and church. Yet somehow, he says that he's going to get out of prison early? Someones gotta explain this to me...

Does maybe anyone know what was the excatly reason why had he murdered ''Euronymous''? I don't know the complete story about that so that's why I'm asking myself this.

Written by Abattoir on 11.03.2009 at 22:01 You can read about it on the burzum website. He has posted huge diaries there explaining it all from the time when he was playing in the woods with the immortal guys until his time in prison. That's his own point of view of course but it's as good as it's gonna get for any of us. Edit: Here it is

Written by Abattoir on 11.03.2009 at 22:01 I believe that a friend of Varg, told him that Euronymous had intentions to kill Varg. Then when Varg travelled to Euronymous' place, to deliver something. I believe Euronymous attacked Varg, and ran into to the kitchen to get a knife or something (I think it was because he thought Varg was there to kill him), and Varg just had to react - otherwise he would get killed. (Un)fortunately Varg had a knife with him and reacted to Euronymous moves. I don't remember it all, but I think this is basicly what happened. Long time since I read what he wrote about the incident. =) EDIT: well, Corrupt was faster than me. =)

Written by matos on 11.03.2009 at 21:04 In fact that's true... in some interview that I read a few years ago (2 or 3 I don't remember) in the Burzum webpage, he said that he didn't want to become involved again in BM, because this era had finished for him. He talked about keep writting neo-nazi books and other stuff like that about politic... it would be stupid that this guy will try to follow with his band at this time, and IMO it would be lame. But well Burzum only remain in the heart of his fans

I hope he'll bring out some blues/folk/traditional low-key album. Something completely different from Burzum.

Written by BitterCOld on 11.03.2009 at 19:11 *Deep, deep sigh* As much as I hate to admit it, I think you are most likely right. He's 30-and-something, prison must have chrushed his spirit. Besides, a nice family life on a farm with his wife and son? Never again will he make something like the old Burzum.

Written by [user id=1909] on 11.03.2009 at 22:01 Probably so. That's actually EXACTLY how I was conceived as well. Well, I shouldn't exaggerate. My mom put a syringe in her 'J-J' and suprisingly injected me in there... mixed with a wince of heroine.Everyone has practically said how they feel now. He wants to make music, great, it WON'T be Burzum... and yeah, fuck, let the dude live his life.

Written by corrupt on 11.03.2009 at 20:56 I agree wholeheartedly with you in that respect. I don't agree with the death sentence at all, and even lifetime imprisonment is harsh, but to liberate someone who has commited murder after such a brief period of time seems illogical to me. If anything, they should give some psychological 'rehabilitation' (if you will) to at least remedy the perspectives of most convicts before releasing them ... otherwise, I doubt they would've learned their lesson or rectify their wrongdoings at all.

I think a lot in that Norwegian news article is fabricated. Media always do that. The article says he has a wife, but as far as i know, he is not married since he oppose christianity. He also says in an interview on his official website www.burzum.org that he's not married. However, the part about him soon being released is of course true. Another thing, i can't say for sure, but i think the part about him being ready for society may be made up by the media as well, since he has said he finds the modern society to be insane.

How necro Is he the same evil guy who murdered, burned, etc The only cruel thing about him now is the irony: a notorious black metal die-hard becomes a devoted family man  "Praised be he who does not change"!! By the way, when did his wife got pregnant from him? In prison? Is it allowed?

Last time he got let out, didnt they find him with all these guns, pipebombs, blueprints and shit and thats why they sent him back? on another note, I thought Metalstorm didn't deal with NSBM or does that rule get thrown out the window when it is appealing news for mallgoths? oh well soon enough he'll be showing us what he's been playing on his little keyboard in jail all these years.

Well, he has grown up, you know, ten years in prison is not like he went out to the grocery store for some milk and he returned home a bit late. Things can change in ten years... even his dedication to Burzum.

I'm happy for him. If this article is true, I'm glad he's got his sight set on farming and being a father. I really doubt he'll make another Buzum album and if he does, it'll be for the $$. Don't care either way, just glad he's being released.
