Varg Vikernes. This was Varg attempting to make an "anti black metal" record. But most importantly of all, Filosofem is an incredible album, definately the best of Burzum's career and a landmark black metal release in general. In the case of "Filosofem" the things are slightly different. This is not the blasphemous, aggressive, fast black metal that was "all the rage" in 1996, as well as the time of this album's production and recording in 1993. Black metal. Burzum’s Filosofem was easily one of the albums that drew me into black metal. As one of the colleagues said, it's an album of two halves and they are so different that I do not have a clue how anyone can love both parts so deeply.
Yet again, Varg captures his emotions and transmutes them into some vivid and intense music. Who the producer is on this album, is unknown. I honestly can’t understand why anyone would willingly put themselves through this martyrdom. This album is one of my favorite black metal albums; it combines aggression with melancholy and loneliness. Burzum was een prominent en invloedrijk Noors blackmetalproject dat in 1991 werd opgericht door Varg Vikernes (onder zijn pseudoniem Count Grishnackh).Burzum speelde een sleutelrol in de ontwikkeling van de vroege black metal. Varg's last metal album until 2009's "Belus", "Filosofem" is a perfect mix of lo-fi metal and ambient. Be that, from the infamous actions from Varg Vikernes - that I do not wish to rehash, as I assume other reviewers must have by now - or other related incidents. I cannot understand how people really appreciate this classic so much that they give a rating of (almost) 100%. This, of course, guarantees that every single thing he makes will have a very distinct, almost trademark style and sound to each and every one of his creations. It's more ambient than "Hvis" and less metal, yet, there are 20 more minutes of music to get through this time around.Unlike certain murder-associated black metal acts I could name, Varg has had enough good ideas to produce something that could justify the mystique. I myself consider this to be second. Part one reads like the former kind of great album, with each song really being as close to perfect as you can get when it comes to this particular strain of black metal. Released after the infamous imprisonment of Varg Vikernes, the sole member of the band, it remains a mystery whether or not he was actually satisfied with the final outcome of these recordings, as he never heard the final masters.Burzum's Filosofem is an album with some interesting circumstances behind it. This release was exceptionally original for when it was released, incorporating much more atmospheric and ambient elements then previous.The final album recorded by infamous Norwegian Varg Vikernes before he was imprisoned for murder, ‘Filosofem’ represents the peak of the self-styled Count Grishnackh’s achievement at creating ambient black metal, largely because his project has been put on hold by incarceration.All right, it's not technically sophisticated and most of the keyboard playing sounds as if it's being done with just two fingers plus a lot of tape looping but in its own way, Burzum's "Filosofem" album is an advance in music composition for mid-1990s black metal: the repetitive and austere minimalist approach, the emphasis on dark and brooding atmosphere in the bulk of the album and on portraying extreme solitude and desperation generally, and the integration of synthesiser-based ambient elements into the guitars / bass/ drums set-up is a combination that was probably unusual at the time of the album's release though it is something we take for granted these days. "Filosofem" is one of these albums that, however famous and influential for the metal scene, still manages to create this minimalistic, intimate feeling of being surrounded by yourself and Mother Nature only while you listen to it. The album is recorded in Breidablik Tonstudio. The truth is that the music he has written is one of the most distinctive ever made in the metal.So, for me this album could be considered the album that suffers from inconsistency more than any album I have heard. Aan de ene kant is Varg sterk anti-christelijk en eigenlijk fel tegen alle Aan de andere kant is meermaals gebleken dat hij een lijn trekt tussen de religie die iemand aanhangt en diens Overigens zijn er veel controverses en onwaarheden ontstaan rond Varg, mede door organisaties als Antifa. Pretty much all the other Burzum recordings (except the last two synthesizer albums and the demos) have the same production since they were all recorded in Grieghallen and were engineered and produced by Pytten. Varg released four albums within five years and they all brought something new to the table. Filosofem is a ludicrous exercise in utmost distaste.
