Just ask any first year guitar student to fumble around pentatonic scales, slowly, over and over again and it'll be just like a burzum record.

Morbid: I don't really care to prove anything but you calling him an attention whore is pretty ridiculous. Black metal is 99% attention and 1% music but he easily falls into the latter.het posted:I'm not clear on what's hosed up about the laws here.

Actually, it later turned out that he didn't have an AG-3 on him. The police found the weapon in a cabin that Vikernes could have spent the night in, but this was never proven and he wasn't convicted for it. Also, it is completely unrealistic that he will spend the rest of his life in prison. The place he is at now is basically like a halfway house, and it's just a matter of years (if that) before he is released. I'm not condoning anything he's done, just trying to set the record straight.

Haha, people actually trying to impress each other by saying "Burzum wasn't THAT good" never cease to make me laugh. I mean, I'm not one to uphold sacred cows simply by virtue of convention, but saying Burzum is less than essential is like eating glue on my scale of retardation.

het posted:He burned churches to the ground and killed a man. He was convicted for those crimes, sentenced to prison time, had that prison time reduced, and still he tried to escape; I don't see how there's any argument over the justification of his parole being turned down. This is pretty straight-forward. Well, the argument has been that he is being treated harsher than other convicts in a similar position. Even when taking into account the escape attempt he would normally have been released by now. I personally think he should spend a lot more time in prison, but the reasoning behind this should be that he was convicted for a brutal murder and arson. It should not be that he is some nazi satanist boogeyman, which certain people in the Department of Criminal Justice seem to think.

This is pretty straight-forward. Never try to reason with 18-year-old norsecore fanboys because they always know so much more about what happened in 1995 than you do and Varg is clearly a misunderstood genius, plus they can relate to him because living in their parents' basement is much like being sentenced to life in prison

Ah yes, straw mans over Varg Vikernes. Just what I've always wanted to hear. He's a horrible person but lots of bands have him as an influence, and his music (sans the prison albums which are terrible) aren't all that bad. Here's hoping he'll make Filosofem 2 and not daudi baldurs or something.

I think the point is that he's had a much harsher sentence than other criminals convicted of similar crimes. I'm not sure if anything good will come out of releasing him, but to keep up the appearance of a just legal system they have to let him out sooner or later.

modernlifeisadam posted:I reaaallly don't see how BM is a "dead and stale" genre, maybe if you listen to 1349/anything else on candlelight as a indication of how the BM scene is doing, sure. But IMO quite a few bands are making interesting poo poo these days, maybe not as much as a year or 2 ago, but I'd say it's hardly "dead and stale" If I could find more like one decent band a month i'd be alright with it.

The neo-fascist satanist thing isn't relevant. Murder and arson is, and there are certainly a lot of people who have been convicted of that throughout the years. 02-6611-0142-1 posted:I quite enjoyed Det Som Engang Var and Filosofem, and assumed everything else he released was a hairy ballsack.

Varg was the one that last changed the genre and created an entire (and now terrible) sub genre. He's done more for black metal than almost anyone. Euronymous was a worthless human being and did hardly anything notable. I complete agree with the pro-Varg side of it that says Euro wanted to torture Varg.
