Former BURZUM Leader Says Anti-VARG VIKERNES Campaign In Norway Is Massive
September 14, 2006Former BURZUM leader and convicted murderer and arsonist Varg Vikernes has started a new series of articles called "A Bard's Tale". Check out the first three parts: "Part I - The Ring Of Andvari" (read),"Part II - Green Heavens" (read) and "Part III - The White God" (read). Varg has also penned a new article about "Lords of Chaos" (more information),a fiction film based on true events in the Norwegian black metal music scene in the early 1990s, which Vikernes claims is using his "name and whole story without any permission." Read Varg's article, called simply "Lord of Lies", at this location.
Vikernes, 33, was known as Count Grishnackh in the days of his one-man music project BURZUM. A neo-Nazi today, he subscribes to "heathen Odalism" and is the creator of the far-right All Germanic Heathen Front.
He was imprisoned for 21 years in 1993 for the murder of former friend Oystein Aarseth, also known as Euronymous, whom he stabbed 23 times. Aarseth was another leading member of the black metal scene that caught the imagination of the Norwegian press after a series of arson attacks on churches back in the '90s.
Vikernes himself had also been found guilty of the arson of a church in Bergen. On his arrest, police found 100 kg of explosives in his home.
In October 2003, he failed to return to prison after being granted a short leave, and was later apprehended by police with an unloaded assault rifle, 700 rounds of ammo, and a handheld GPS system.
