burzum - the fallen[views:12620][posts:58]_________________________________________ [Jan 12,2011 6:27pm - ancient master ""] new album? sounds cool http://www.plastichead.com/catalogue.asp?ex=fitem&verb=F&target=BYE008CD Fallen is the 9th studio album from Burzum, and follows the highly critically acclaimed 2010 release Belus which put Burzum straight back at the at the top of the chain as of one of the most innovative and creative metal artists of our time. Fallen follows Belus in sound and structure, and can also be compared to the music on the groundbreaking DET SOM ENGANG VAR. Fallen is more dynamic and hard hitting then Belus and has an even bigger sound, but still carries the same trademark melodic melody lines throughout that makes Burzum sound so iconic and unique. Burzum says of the new album and his style of music: "Musically FALLEN is like a cross between BELUS and something new, inspired more by the debut album DET SOM ENGANG VAR than by HVIS LYSET TAR OSS or FILOSOFEM. The sound is more dynamic – we mastered the album as if it was classical music – and I was more experimental than I was on BELUS in all respects. Lyric wise it is similar to the debut album, in the way that it is more personal and focuses on existential issues, but the mythological undertone known from BELUS is still there. I have also included some ambient tracks – a short introduction and a longer conclusion." I. Fra Verdenstreet II. Jeg faller III. Valen IV. Vanvidd V. Enhver til Sitt VI. Budstikken VII. Til Hel og tilbake igjen *New Release* - available 7/3/2011 |

| ___________________________________________ [Jan 14,2011 2:42pm - mikeofdecrepitude ""] Belus isn't my favorite Burzum material by any stretch but it certainly wasn't horrible either. I'm always looking forward to more music by the man. |

| _______________________________ [Jan 31,2011 10:32am - Yeti ""] i wish he wouldn't make comparisons to old albums, it's not going to sound anything like Det Som En Gang Var. Just continue doing what feels right and let it weed out the fakes. |
| __________________________________________ [Jan 31,2011 11:43am - ancient master ""] it doesnt you are right. the clean vocals are different, but interesting after a few listens |

| _____________________________________ [Jan 31,2011 12:24pm - arilliusbm ""] listening. I like this so far, it's different. clean vocals are strange, but fit. there are some screams in here that were absent on belus. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 31,2011 12:25pm - arilliusbm ""] one of the guitar riffs on vanvidd is very similar to jesus' tod's riff. hahaha |

| ______________________________ [Jan 31,2011 1:05pm - BSV ""] josh_hates_you said:boring. says the dude who don't like burzum. YOU'RE LIKE A CHILD WHO WANDERS INTO A MOVIE. |
| ______________________________ [Jan 31,2011 1:12pm - Yeti ""] you all suck for listening to it before it's intended release. |
| ________________________________________ [Jan 31,2011 1:17pm - josh_hates_you ""] no. it's just boring. enhter til sitt was the best song. most people just like this band for cult status and stabbing people i assume. i'd rather listen to enslaved, agolloch, drudkh, darkthrone or something that interests me. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 31,2011 1:19pm - arilliusbm ""] josh_hates_you said:drudkh great band, but wouldn't exist if it weren't for burzum :spineyes: |

| ____________________________________ [Jan 31,2011 1:36pm - arilliusbm ""] valid point |
| ______________________________ [Jan 31,2011 2:39pm - BSV ""] if you were a fan of burzum, you wouldn't think it'd be boring. let alone you'd be into the rest of the catalog. it's okay to not like it, it's not for everyone. |
| ______________________________ [Jan 31,2011 3:16pm - Yeti ""] TWO JOSHES IS TOO MUCH |
| ______________________________ [Feb 9,2011 12:40pm - BSV ""] listened to this album twice a day everyday....fucking fantastic! |

| _______________________________________ [Mar 21,2011 8:45pm - RainPerimeter ""] I liked Belus, and I'm actually enjoying this one so far. |
| ____________________________________ [Mar 21,2011 10:33pm - Clisthert ""] Havent heard the new album yet, but people I know who have been listening to burzum for years have told me this is one of the best albums. I hope I can get my hands on it soon. |
| ____________________________________ [Apr 17,2011 4:25pm - arilliusbm ""] interesting. just read what he used to record this album: "Fallen" was recorded and mixed during two weeks in Grieghallen studios, using a Spectar bass with alembic electronics on a VOX AC50 amp from 1965, a Ludwig drum kit (with a 26 inch kick) from 1975, a Neumann M149 microphone and stereo Schoeps CMTS 501 U microhpones for vocals, an OBH Nordica Harmony 6487, a custom Stig instrument and a Peavey 23 guitar on a Peavey 6505 (120 Watt) amp. |
| ______________________________________ [Apr 17,2011 5:55pm - the_reverend ""] It is weird. Different. |

| ___________________________________ [Apr 17,2011 9:12pm - Slag nli ""] I think its good, just not a classic, at all. Too inconsistent. |
| _____________________________________ [Apr 18,2011 12:21am - arilliusbm ""] I'd have to agree. Both Belus and Fallen are good albums (the latter the better) but I think both of them dwindle away as it goes on. It's like an orgasm then limp dick all of a sudden. Then again, I know most people love the full album. I'd have to be cliche and say the earlier works are better. |
