Lets just clarify the evident fact that Varg Vikernes is about as inept at making ambient music as Belial is at making amiable relationships with mortal men. Fuck this album and Dirty Balls.

Fuck Dirty Balls [2]













I still stand by this album being good though, even if Gonzo and I are the only ones who think so.

I'd stand by my belief of Hlidskjalf being really good, but not this or Dirty Balls.

Meh, Hildskjalf is good in the sense that it's better than his other ambient works but it doesn't live up to his other good albums IMO. Plus, it always makes me feel like "I could be listening to Summoning instead."

I don't think of Summoning as an ambient band though.. and Der Tod Wuotans is my favorite Burzum track regardless of era/style, haha

hlidskjalf is his only ambient album that actually feels like there is a point in it

Sort of. This is no better or worse than Hlidskjalf imo.

Don't know about anyone else, but it boils down to me preferring his later works. Hvis Lyset Tar Oss and Det Som Engang Var rule, but I got into him from this and worked my way backward. And it seems like I enjoy the stuff everyone seems to hate haha.



Daudi Baldrs was solid. Hlidskjalf was great and my favourite records by him are the last two.



Umskiptar and Fallen are pretty terrible though.

Idk this is pretty disgraceful compared to his first 4 albums especially and also Belus and Fallen, even if there not the same genre. Never checked out his other ambient albums, but I agree that Umskiptar is shit too.

I seriously don't understand how you can think anything on here is on par with Der Tod Wuotans at least, haha

In terms of a consistent atmosphere, this is his best imo. It has a continuous theme. I know some of the vox on this are.... aquired, but vocals are pretty secondary to me with this type of music.

this guy is pretty much an amateur in ambient but it worked so well with tomhet, rundgang and most of hlidskjalf
