Belus

VINYL FORMAT. For all the hype, controversy, and rumor, Burzum is without doubt one of black metal's most iconic. Eleven years in the making, Belus is not a religious album, or even an anti-religious album. It is not a political statement or means to provoke. It is simply an attempt to explore the myths about the ancient Indo-Aryan solar deity of light and innocence and unveil the oldest roots of European cultural heritage. The album deals with the death of Belus, his somber journey through the realm of death and his magnificent return. In essence, the story of Belus is meant to be an entertaining story about something that once upon a time played a major role in the forming and shaping of Europe.
