      Ppl don't know what real darkness is. It doesnt lie in flesh. All flesh fades away. Eternity is the cusp of true terror. A terror for people for that think they know terror to speak of terror so easily, which they quickly rebuke due to their preconceived notions when they understand absolutely nothing of spiritual matters. If they did they wouldn't say the things they do. Deep down everyone knows the price of Hell wasn't worth the price of this world. No one takes pleasure in true darkness. No one. It wasn't meant for the flesh. All this music lies in pleasure and it's this dark pleasure that Satan makes people think they are cool but they understand nothing. It's quite boring to those who really understand what true darkness is and it's not necessarily the flesh. Yes its complex. This isn't our reality mortals. . Its God's. But you dont believe.... heh..

      I think it makes sense regarding your "Like it's not even metal or something" comment, since (as far as I understand it) Varg Vikernes wasn't that much into metal at all, but more into "experimental music", techno and ambient stuff. This is actually one of the reasons I liked a lot of the old black metal bands - it seemed like they were experimental musicians and not "just" metal.

    What sticks out the most, is that Varg always had more sense for composition than other black metal acts. The way he shapes riffs and puts them into context of a song is exceptional.
    He crushed everything here except Darkthrone because of the brilliant simplicity of that riff from Transilvanian Hunger. So simple yet so effective. In contrast to Immortal's riff which is just plain basic, uninspired and lacks rhythm.

      @@George-cd9ik To answer that, first I have to say that I enjoy complex and intricate music (from prog-metal to jazz and fusion), but not in black metal.
      Fenriz explained it perfectly in interviews and demonstrated in his songs: the point of black metal ("Norwegian" second wave) was to distance itself from death metal production, imagery and empty technicality. This "limitation" allowed talented people in the scene to explore simple and "primitive" riff structures which ultimately gave us Dunkelheit, Transilvanian Hunger and Bergtrollets Hevn.
      Dissection is a great band for what it is, but being technically and atmospherically stuck between black and death metal, it excels in none of those.
      Emperor is fine and certainly infuential, but their music often seemed to rely on overuse of synthesizers to achieve atmosphere and hide mediocre riffs.

      @@Odie50000 Mgla never did anything for me. I heard all of that music before, performed by better musicians. There is apparently some hype around their drummer. As a drummer myself, overuse of paradiddle variations on ride cymbal doesn't impress me, which seems to be Darkside's signature move. If you want truly aggresive, merciless yet techically apt drumming, Cryptic Winter's work on "To Embrace the Corpses Bleeding" is unmatched.
      I could further elaborate on their mediocre riffs, characterless vocal, nonexistant atmosphere and laughable lyrics (all Varg's strong points by the way, from chilling inhuman screams that set him apart from the bunch in the 90's to the enveloping dark atmosphere present in his early albums) but you get the picture.
      To be clear, I'm a Slav, and I am very proud that a Polish artist can be so highly thought of in black metal circles, but I can't lie and say that I find particular value in Mgla as a band.

    Varg's music is very simple but its spirit reaches you. It is unique and no band can imitate it. Take " Inn i Slottet Fra Droemmen", for example. Most of the song is a two-tone riff but when it is connected to the lyrics, it creates an atmosphere of traveling at a fast pace, then the riff changes to a more complicated one - reaching the dreamt goal. Simple and deep. Nowadays all those new pretentious BM bands with perfect technique and nice records feel empty inside. I try listening to their music and get no message because there is none. They are posers who lack Varg's spirit. Varg's music is pure poetry.

    Say what you will about Varg, but you can't deny the fact the man has some talent. Songs like Budstikken, Glemselens Elv, My Journey to the Stars, and Dunkelheit (to name a few) really highlight what he does best (that being both epic and melodic, as well as slow and melancholic). Doesn't hurt that he also let's his notes "breathe" and sound out, as well as throwing in some stuff you'd usually only see on an acoustic guitar. The guy is a creative genius when it comes to music in my opinion. He really does create some timeless classics, I still pop on Filosofem and Burzum/Aske almost daily.

    Varg’s “anti-leads” as he calls them have a lot more emotion from their atmospheric effect

    This is a heckuva argument for Burzum superiority. The riffs are crazy, I never realized.

    Some of the riffs on Spell of Destruction are THE most sinister riffs in Black Metal, I literally feel them put me under a black spell whenever I hear them, and have yet to encounter any other riff in BM that has that same effect on me.
    On that alone, Varg wins for me 😁

    though i'm not into black metal anymore it was nice to see, cool video, and yes Varg is all about amtosphere, maybe i'm into atmosphere as much as i'm now because i used to love his music
