**Øystein Aarseth**, better known by his stage name **Euronymous**, was a Norwegian musician widely known for being the co-founder and original guitarist of the Norwegian Black metal band Mayhem from the band's inception in 1984 until his death in 1993. He is widely considered to be one of the most influential figures in Norwegian Black metal and the history of Heavy Metal music altogether.

## Personal Life

### 1984-1991

Aarseth founded Mayhem in 1984 along with bassist Necrobutcher and drummer Kjetil Manheim. At the time, he used the stage name *Destructor*, but later began using the name *Euronymous*, a reference to the Greek demon *Eurynomos,* who was representative of the rotting corpses found in certain regions of the Underworld.
Deathcrush (Mayhem)

***Deathcrush*** is an EP by Mayhem. It was released in August 1987 by the Posercorpse record label, and was the first studio release by any band in the Norwegian black metal scene.

Ravishing Grimness (Darkthrone)

* Original
* Reissue

***Ravishing Grimness*** is the seventh studio album by Darkthrone. It was released by Moonfog Productions in 1999.

This album marked a noticeable shift in the band's musical and lyrical scope. While still retaining much of the band's older black metal roots, the music itself was more slow-to-mid-paced with less blast beats than on previous albums, and the album's production was cleaner and clearer; this led to some fan criticism of the band. Nocturno Culto wrote the music for all the songs except "The Beast", which was the sole musical contribution by Fenriz, who contributed lyrics instead. The album's lyrics also started to move away from the group's original ideas, taking on more mysterious and avant-garde topics versus the Satanic/anti-religious themes of old albums.

In the album's booklet, Nocturno Culto was credited as "Nocturnal Cult". Also, all the Ts in the liner notes and lyrics were replaced with inverted crosses.

Ravishing Grimness was re-released with new artwork in 2011 by Peaceville Records.

## Tracklist

1. "Lifeless" - 5:42
2. "The Beast" - 5:30

Wolf's Lair Abyss (Mayhem)

***Wolf's Lair Abyss*** is an EP by Mayhem.

According to the band's website, it is the first part of *Grand Declaration of War*. The main riff of the last track, "Symbols of Bloodswords", is used in "A Grand Declaration of War" and "View from Nihil (Part II)".

This EP was the first release by Mayhem without Euronymous, who was killed in 1993. The new line-up's material was far more technical than that of earlier incarnations of the band; apart from the intro, each track contains at least two separate sections and is played at a furious tempo. Also, while Maniac's vocal contributions to the band are generally controversial, his performance on this EP is routinely praised. This EP has often been cited as the best item in the new line-up's discography.

## Tracklist

1. "The Vortex Void of Inhumanity" - 2:20
2. "I Am Thy Labyrinth" - 5:26
3. "Fall of Seraphs" - 6:02

There are four tracks on the CD version, and only two on the 7" vinyl version. The tracks include a different recording of the song "Wisdom of the Dead" and different vocal version of "Canadian Metal", plus a cover of "Bad Attitude" by the punk rock band Testors (previously issued on Darkthrone's "Forebyggende Krig" single).

Burzum (Burzum)/My Journey to the Stars

```
I immaterialize

And slowly drift

Into the unknown

With the cold winds with soul

The wintery plains lie untouched

I ride on my elements

Towards the stars unseen

A quest

For knowledge

In the

Astral

Luminous

Stench intensifies

As I

Near a spectral sphere

After a hundred

Men's lifetime

In analyzing

I learn

To consume

The sphere

Of immense power

And to

Become immortal

Darkness hate and winter

Rules the earth when I return

War

Between races

A goal is reached

Chaos, hate

```
Thorns (Thorns)

***Thorns*** is the debut studio album by Thorns. It was released in 2001, through Moonfog Productions.

The album features guest appearances from Satyr (of Satyricon), Aldrahn (of Dødheimsgard) and Hellhammer (of Mayhem). Stylistically, *Thorns* is quite different from both *Trøndertun* and the first Thorns demo, *Grymyrk*. While it retains the eerie riff structures of those early releases, it displays a strong industrial influence, particularly on tracks like "Shifting Channels" and "Underneath the Universe, Part 1".

Hvis lyset tar oss (Burzum)/Inn i slottet fra droemmen

```
Norwegian:

Gjennom tåkete daler

Mellom dystre fjell

Under grå skyer

Mitt i svarte natt

På en stolt hest

Iført svarte klær

Sterke våpen i hånd

Uendelig med døde trær

En evighet av kulde

Over stokk og stein

Inn i skyggene...

Ut fra tåken

Ut fra mørke

Ut fra fjellets store skygge

Drømmens slott...

Da stopper rittet

Som varte i en livstid

For herren går (inn i slottet fra drømmen)

English:

Between misty vales

Between gloomy mountains

Under gray clouds

In the black night

On a proud horse

In black clothes

Strong weapons at hand

The infinity with dead trees

An eternity of cold

Over stone and wood

In the shadows

Out from the mist

Out from darkness

Out from the big shadows of the mountain

The castle of the dream...

So ends the ride

That lasted a lifetime

For the master goes (in the castle of the dream)

German:

Durch neblige Tälern

inmitten purpurner Berge

unter grauen Wolken

in der schwarzen Nacht

Auf einem stolzen Pferd

in schwarzem Gewand

schwere Waffen in der Hand

Die Unendlichkeit toter Bäume

ewige Kälte

Über Stock und Stein

in die Schatten...

Aus Nebel

aus Dunkelheit

aus dem Schatten der Berge

das Schloss der Träume...

Dann endete der Ritt

der ein Leben lang dauerte

der Herr schreitet (In das Schloss der Träume)

Marrow of the Spirit (Agalloch)/The Watcher's Monolith

```
Blue textures cascade downward to the base of the monolith

Like brush strokes on a canvas of souls

Two arms reach out a cloak of silent nihil

Revenants untouched by the scythe

They are lost in the dark woods of time
Aloft in the landscape that you hail

I am the fog that seeps over here in the early hours
Standing proud in the hollow of the land

A vestige of deeper purity etched in spirit agaisnt the sky
The menhir
had runes carved in limbs of oaken sovereignty

and could see the ages growing from within the palms

I can feel the era slipping into oblivion,

no longer grasping the textures

I am slowly becoming stone
As wolves celebrate the dusk,

an old voice of wisdom haunts the vale
Shapes flicker in the fire light through the windows

The woodlands burn with grace

Their silence drowns the age
As wandering ghosts pass through the flames

A new age of rebirth lights the dawn
But who are they who pass by the window?

The shapes; like black solar wheels scorched in the snow

by gods of the stone...

This elder stone shall never fall!
Cast the aeons into the void

So that no other can seek them

No age, no hands shall taint them

Pour the sorrows into the sun

They are lost forever in dark woods of time

Carve the symbols into the stone

So that another can find them

No age, no hands shall change them

Pour the ages into the sun

They are lost forever in the dark woods of time

```

This original version contains eight songs from a concert in Sarpsborg on February 28, 1990. The label bears the band's logo and the album title in golden ink.

The album has been reissued many times by various independent record labels, with many including four extra songs, recorded at a concert in Ski, Norway, during 1986, with Messiah on vocals.

Panzer Division Marduk (Marduk)

Panzer Division Marduk is the sixth album by the band Marduk, the album was recorded and mixed at The Abyss recording studio in 1999 and then released in 1999 by Osmose Productions. The main theme of this album is war, as Nightwing was blood, and La Grande Danse Macabre the bands next studio album would be death, forming a trilogy of "Blood, War and Death", Marduk's vision of what black metal is, unending grimness. Panzer Division Marduk was the last Marduk release by Osmose Productions.

The concept of World War II in literally every track initially led many proponents of National Socialist black metal to consider the band akin to them, notwithstanding the fact that vocalist Legion and guitarist/composer Morgan publicly debunked this rumor, saying that Marduk has no political point in their lyrics, and the band has nothing to do with Nazi views.

Bathory

**Bathory** was an extreme metal band formed in Stockholm, Sweden, in 1983 named for Hungarian countess Elizabeth Báthory. The band's frontman and main songwriter was Quorthon (Tomas Forsberg). Considered to be one of the most influential acts in heavy metal, Bathory's first four albums are considered to be "the blueprint for Scandinavian black metal". The band departed from this style on their fifth album, *Hammerheart* (1990), which is often cited as the first Viking metal album. Bathory continued in the Viking metal style throughout the 1990s and early 2000s, although the band returned to thrash metal with the albums *Requiem* (1994) and *Octagon* (1995). Bathory ended when Quorthon died from heart failure in 2004.

Marrow of the Spirit (Agalloch)

Marrow of the Spirit is the fourth album by American metal band Agalloch, released on November 23, 2010.

## Production

Marrow of the Spirit marked a change in record labels for Agalloch. Their first three full-length albums and EPs were released by The End Records, but after their contract was completed with the release of Ashes Against the Grain in 2006, the band opted not to renew it. Marrow of the Spirit was released by Profound Lore Records, which had also released the first two Agalloch albums on vinyl in 2005. It was the first album to feature Aesop Dekker (of Ludicra) on drums, replacing Chris Greene.

The band felt that their previous album, Ashes Against The Grain, sounded too polished, and opted for a more raw sound for Marrow of the Spirit, saying that it felt more "alive and real." The album thus was recorded entirely on vintage analog equipment. Recording took place at Audible Alchemy Studios in Portland, Oregon with Steven Wray Lobdell producing.

## Tracklist

1. "They Escaped the Weight of Darkness" 3:41
2. "Into the Painted Grey " 12:25

5. "Ghosts of the Midwinter Fires " 9:40

Fallen (Burzum)/Vanvidd

```
En forskremt skikkelse i skyggen,

fillete og fattig, men vakker og rik,

fælen og forvridd, men ingen stakkar:

hun gjemmer seg så godt hun kan.

Hun er forhatt av de fleste,

men elsket av de aller beste.

Reiser gjerne langt og lenge,

hun går alene, barbeint i skiten,

på ubrukte veier, gjengrodde stier,

i dyretrakk og farlige leier.

Oppover, til himmelens rand

i lasten; galskap i bøtter og spann.

Himmelen revner når hun når opp:

hymnen tar slutt for saueflokk.

Lyse lokker, lure smil,

blåe blikk, bak sjalet

melkehvit hud, kritthvite tenner.

Latteren skremmer de fleste.

```
Defending the Throne of Evil (Carpathian Forest)

***Defending the Throne of Evil*** is the fourth studio album by Carpathian Forest. It was released on September 23, 2003 by Season of Mist. A remastered, deluxe double LP version with a bonus track was also released in 2007.

The sonority of *Defending the Throne of Evil* is largely different from other Carpathian Forest albums, being their more melodic one so far; relying heavily on symphonic interludes, saxophones and synthesizers, it is loosely reminiscent of symphonic black metal.

Filosofem (Burzum)

***Filosofem*** (Norwegian for "philosopheme") is the fourth studio album by Burzum. It was recorded in March 1993 and was the last recording before Varg Vikernes' imprisonment; however the album was not released until January 1996.

## Background

Varg Vikernes recorded the first four Burzum albums between January 1992 and March 1993 at the Grieg Hall in Bergen. However, the releases were spread out, with many months between the recording and the release of each album. During this time, Vikernes became a part of the early Norwegian black metal scene and befriended Mayhem guitarist Euronymous. Vikernes also allegedly took part in burning down four churches, along with other members of the scene. In August 1993, Vikernes stabbed Euronymous to death outside his apartment in Oslo. He was arrested a few days later and, in May 1994, was sentenced to 21 years in prison for both the murder and the church arsons.

The opening track on *Filosofem*, "Burzum", was the first song Vikernes wrote as Burzum. It had been recorded in September 1992 for the Hvis lyset tar oss album, but Vikernes was unhappy with it and re-recorded it for this album six months later. According to a statement made by Vikernes on burzum.org, the master tapes for the version of "Burzum" meant for *Hvis lyset tar oss* were lost by the Norwegian prison system.

The album was recorded under purposefully bad conditions. No guitar amplifier was used; Vikernes plugged his guitar into the amplifier of his brother's stereo and used an old fuzz pedal. For the vocals, he asked a sound technician for the worst microphone he had, and ended up using a headset.

## Music and artwork

The music of *Filosofem* continued Vikernes' experimentation with minimalism, repetition, and ambient music within black metal. The tracks are all quite long (the shortest being just over seven minutes), and are typically composed around very few musical motifs. For instance, "Jesu død", a track of over eight-and-a-half minutes, is primarily based around variations of a single riff. "Burzum", the opening track, features a prominent melody played by a synthesizer, and the two "Decrepitude" tracks consist of sound effects over very sparse guitars. The album also included Burzum's longest ambient track to date, the 25-minute-long "Rundtgåing av den transcendentale egenhetens støtte".

The album cover and booklet contain artwork by Theodor Kittelsen. The front cover is named Op under Fjeldet toner en Lur (Norwegian for "up under the mountains a clarion call rings out").

## Tracklist

1. Burzum 07:05
2. Jesu død 08:39
3. Beholding the Daughters of the Firmament 07:53

6. Decrepitude II 07:52

## Background

*Goatlord* was written in 1990 as the follow-up to Darkthrone's death metal debut album, *Soulside Journey*, and was recorded in late 1990 and early 1991 as an instrumental rehearsal tape. The album was scrapped when the band changed style from death metal to black metal in favor of *A Blaze in the Northern Sky*. Most of the lyrics for *Goatlord* were written in the autumn of 1990, with some additions in 1994 for the last two songs. The vocals were recorded in 1994 by Fenriz.

Umskiptar (Burzum)

***Umskiptar*** (Old Norse for ***Metamorphosis***) is the ninth studio album by Burzum, released on 21 May 2012 through Byelobog Productions. It has been described by Varg Vikernes as a "return to the roots", with a priority on atmosphere. The album's lyrics are taken from an Old Norse poem entitled Völuspá. The album was leaked two months before its release date, due, according to Vikernes, to a former PR agent of his having "sent promotional copies of the entire album to left wing extremist magazines" without his knowledge or consent. This remains the last metal album by Burzum.

The cover art is taken from the painting Nótt by Norwegian painter Peter Nicolai Arbo.
