Burzum [ neoclassical music ]

The first black metal band to exceed the mold of the genre by a wide margin and through sheer musical creativity to inspire interest from those outside of the genre, Burzum bridged the world of minimalist black metal with that of neoclassical Odinist acts. Hypnotic and primitive pieces in architectures of high abstraction produces an undeniably different experience from most music, and through the desire of these works to reach closer to the standards of an ancient time, listeners achieve a suspension of disbelief and a chance for new aspects of life itself in which to believe.
