2.5 averageGamamJ | March 11th 20

Very disappointing EP considering what the man who wrote it made from 1992-1994 (this came out in 1993). It lacks both the hypnotism of his other works, crossing the line of feeling repetitive rather than hypnotising. The first and last tracks are decent, however the middle track totally ruins the album.

an elevated production does nothing but help varg as the songs vastly improve with a fortified and complete trv version of sad spirit

3.0 goodManiacBlasphemer | September 26th 19

Not much happening on this EP. Stylistically speaking it is an off-shoot of the band's debut LP. It features a terrific track, the opener Stemmen fra tårnet, one of the more aggressive tracks composed during Burzum's early days, the second track is unremarkable, an instrumental track which gives way to the true highlight, a re-recorded version A Lost Forgotten Sad Spirit. which is superior to the original version as it has a better production quality, it is played faster and features better mixing. However, Aske doesn't make for a good standalone record, even for an EP. Get it with the debut.

The cover art is just plain savage. And on top of that you also get a lighter! This EP was recorded simultaneously with "Hvis Lyset tar Oss". Samoth of Emperor on bass. All three tracks are very strong and 'A Lost Forgotten Sad Spirit' is an all time Burzum classic.

3.5 greatEasterInTheBatcave | June 11th 16

"Stemmen fra tarnet" is awesome. I love the abrupt ending. It also happens to one of Burzum's few 'catchy' songs. "Dominus Sathanas" follows, and is a drumless affair, too short to leave much impact. It feels more like an interlude than anything. The EP ends with "A Lost Forgotten Sad Spirit" (a different version than the one on the self-titled record, but nothing is radically different between the two besides the production-- this one is a little clearer) and it's just as good as ever.

2.5 averageAlex C. | March 15th 15

A trip into the mind of a fucking bad multi-instrumentalist. And a sociopath. 'A Lost Forgotten Sad Spirit' though carries glimpses of the atmospheric qualities to be found later on in his career.

Upon repeated listenings, this has definitey grown on me. I just love the interplaying guitars without drums on dominus sathanas
