About
20 vinyl releases spanning raw black metal to dark ambient — key albums have dynamic collector markets.
Burzum stands out in extreme metal for its atmospheric approach combining black metal, dark ambient, and dungeon synth. Varg Vikernes created Burzum as a solo project to maintain full artistic control, performing vocals, guitars, bass, keyboards, and drum programming. The project has released 20 vinyl records, primarily via labels like Back On Black and PHD Vinyl, showcasing works from raw 1990s black metal to more recent ambient soundscapes.
Notable releases include the self-titled debut (1992), the hypnotic, minimalistic black metal albums from the mid-90s like Filosofem (1996), and ambient-oriented works such as Thulêan Mysteries (2020).
