Reviews & Discussion
Burzum, and black metal's apex - arguably all black metal 'scene' music that followed is utterly superfluous. In Hvis Lyset Tar Oss Varg Vikernes utilizes the tools of the trade for black metal music (distorted guitars, screams) into the soundtrack for a trance-like introspection (or contemplation). Melancholy and dreamlike, the album is - as Vikernes describes - the antithesis to trendy, banal metal music.
