RELEASE NOTES
Controversy reigns over Belus: the first, brand
new recorded work released under the dreaded
Burzum masthead by convicted killer Varg "Count
Grishnackh" Vikernes, following the conclusion of
his 16-year incarceration for the murder of his
black metal inner circle rival,
1ystein
"Euronymous" Aarseth, on August 10, 1993. And, as
if his contemptible involvement in perhaps the
darkest chapter in heavy metal history wasn't
difficult enough for most conflicted metalheads
to look past, it turns out that Belus is a
concept album devoted to the ancient, indo-aryan
solar deity (also known as Bel, Ba'al, etc.) and
was originally to be titled Den Hvite Guden ("The
White God"). Needless to say, coming from a
self-professed racist, this adds even more
unwanted baggage for someone that many observers
expected would want to turn over a new leaf, or
at the very least, wish to distance himself from
his past fallacies, not perpetuate lingering
opinions compromising his chances of being taken
seriously as an artist. But this is very much the
case, so one must simply attempt to separate
content from context where Burzum is concerned.
That is what follows here, and, if considered
purely on artistic merit, Belus is a rather
impressive work; one that, unlike the
predominantly electronic, darkly ambient efforts
Vikernes recorded during his imprisonment (if you
can call that "imprisonment"!), it is steeped in
classic Norwegian black metal hallmarks. That's
right: we're talking throat-lacerating screeches,
buzzsaw riffs, grim melodies, and plenty of
blastbeats -- all of them defiled by
intentionally lo-fi production standards that
still barely try to mask the sophisticated
compositional foundations supporting excellent
songs like "Belus Doed," "Sverddans," and "Belus'
Tilbakekomst (Konklusjon)." This musical vision
is never more successful than on the album's epic
centerpiece, "Glemselens Elv," which achieves new
heights of terrifying majesty in light of
Vikernes' personal infamy. In conclusion, Belus
is an album that one desperately wants to hate;
indeed, almost needs to hate for one's own peace
of mind, but whose musical qualities are
impossible to ignore. Come to think of it, isn't
this somewhat like how they've always warned you
that the devil himself would conceal his
identity?
