Yes it was... God that shit was such a joke of an album. Still wonder what he was trying to do, maybe some folky metal concept with BM guitars but failed miserably.

It's an okay electro-ambient album. Better than his last two bm albums, and way better than his previous ambient. Still just meh though.

It's on youtube too.

An Excellent Space Ambient !
----
Stab me with hate
Enforce my fate
Pain's my belonging
To death I am longing
The death I desire
The dead I admire
See no more illusion
Just thy persecution

So finish your work
Stab me with fork
Torture with knife
End useless life
Slit all my wrists

It's somewhat pleasant (and at times atrociously boring) but if I wanted to listen to some good spacey-ambient stuff I'd opt for Steve Roach, not Burzum and his Casio-ambient.

I had no idea this was going to be an ambient music album. Still, I like it. Surely it's not a revolution in the world of music, but a nice soundtrack to a calm but gloomy evening.
I only wish the music on Varg's albums was as good as cover pictures.

I'm a huge Steve Roach fan and your comment made me check this out, I kind of like it . Never really been all that into Burzum.

So Vikernes has done another fully ambient album, the first in over a decade and a half in fact. I'm not going to be too judgmental on Vikernes' motive for recording this album, since I now know that his ambitions have spread to making movies, and this album is apparently the soundtrack to "Forebears", a film made by him and his other half. Musically for the most part this verges on the edge of bland and uninspiring, but there are quite a few parts of many songs which manage to turn heads at least. The spacey sounds on 'Runar munt bu finna' and 'Ganga at solu' offer some interesting noise effects and elsewhere Vikernes uses a hefty amount of melancholy and melody to make various songs amount to a half-hearted albeit glossy finish. It's far from his best work, but not quite his worst (*ahem* Umskiptar *Ahem*).

Honestly I thought this album was a delayed April Fool's joke. Good on anyone who manages to find any redeeming quality, though. It takes talent to find enjoyment in an album like this, talent I do not have.
