This song should be at least 10-15 min longer

Dont cry because its over, smile because it happened.

reminiscing Varg's channel while listening to this.

Original video description: Burzum appeared from nowhere in 1991 with a demo tape made up of a dozen guitars-and-bass-only tracks in rehearsal quality. I made a few more or less successful metal albums, but they all always included at least some ambient music. With time I moved further and further away from metal, and today only the ambient music remains. Today (2013) I think I am done playing metal music for good. Many of you followed Burzum through the years, some even from the beginning, and I think metal-Burzum deserves a proper "good bye". So, just like I started out I will finish metal-Burzum with a guitars-and-bass-only track in rehearsal quality. "Back to the Shadows" is made up of the last metal riffs I ever made (in 2012). It was never released in any way, or recorded (beyond what you hear here), and it will not either -- beyond this short "video". Take it for what it is; a sentimental good bye to metal-Burzum. The music is playing with an image of the 17 year-old me, taken from the time when some of the first Burzum tracks were made. You can see this track as a good bye to that fellow too. You can use this music as you please privately, but the track is mine, so if you by any chance want to use it commercially you need a permission from me to do so. NB! Remember that I don't have a Facebook account, so all those claiming to be me there are frauds.

Currently drunk and I hear things I haven’t heard in this brilliant piece of music before. Long live black metal and long live Burzum

Its insane how skilled he is at creating melodies and harmonies. You can feel that he knew he was done with metal recording this. The name, sound, and feel of this song is perfect. Dude is a legend. Sad they took his channel down it and his music helped me through high school and the darkest times of my life. i still remember teachings from his videos and carry them with me. Lang Lebe Burzum.

This song.... wow. This song. It moves me every damn time. How does varg do THIS? No other musician can evoke the same emotions. There is something varg was born with which cant be tought or gained through hard work. The simplicity of this song and many of his other songs are testament to that. But the emotions brought to light with this simplicity is so complex and misunderstood, i just need to dig deeper and deeper to make any sense of it.

ahhh the ending arc of the black metal for Varg

this sounds like the feeling you get when you finish a really great saga of fantasy books, realising that this world is now coming to an end and soon gone, letting the whole vibe and stories of it flush over you one last time

Can't believe it has already been about eight years... It's pretty amazing how effortlessly he went back to sounding like '92/93, even if for a brief moment (that deliciously raw sound sure helps, sounds like a Filosofem outtake). _Many_ have mimicked him, but I think nobody has ever been able to really match Varg's seemingly inborn sense for simple, elegant riff writing. I mean, this is just _one_ slow, crawling tremolo line, which in typical Burzum fashion gets turned into a countermelody to a second riff that's even more stripped down. Some basic bass notes on top and that's it. It's beyond barebones, yet the resulting harmony is able to conjure up images for which many a band would need to reach for the synthesizer... And that takes talent. In fact, this is probably a few half-intelligible shrieks away from being a perfectly usable two-minute condensation of his classic era. Varg, thank you for everything, it's a damn shame you've decided to permanently move on from black metal, but that's life, I suppose. We all experience shifting interests at some point.

the most beautiful black metal song

Varg is a musical genius

It is truly sad to see Burzum stop producing music, but I suppose, every story has it's ending...one day...

Glad to see this one still on yt

This song is so precious...

It’s my very first times that I’m listening to black metal, this song is so beautiful

varg was ahead of his time. mixing ambient and black metal/atmospheric metal in early 90's, satyricon prolly listened to it and got inspired bcuz they have some ambient songs in their early albums

Sua música ficará para toda a eternidade Vikernes.

Thanks to this song I noticed that without vocals, drums and with a slow bass and iconic riff, black metal is just the job for nostalgists like me.

Takes me back to a much simpler time.

"THE LAST TRACK OF METAL OF BURZUM" Long live the true king of norwegian black metal 🤟✋

This song just really makes you feel like it's the outro of Burzum's metal era Varg was such a musical genius

The atmosphere in this song is magical...most artists rely on keyboards/synthesizers...Varg did it with a guitar and a bass.

To this day the most beautiful song in this universe

I don’t know why but this song is only associated with walking through the forest while Sun is going down gradually

This song is truly beautiful

Words of wisdom.thank you brother.

Masterpiece!

Reminds me of Silent Hill in the beginning

I remember how was to see this. And I remember the words too. Was his choice. And we must respect it.

Burzum is a destiny to come..

i want this played at my wedding day

Today I cut off my long beautiful hair after 5 years and this song is a great tribute for me right now

Timless about his musich got good critics many of hes reelase

What a track! The simplicity yet strong vibe this song passes is out of this world.. A beautiful way to bury the old metal Burzum!

Last one? and hidden instrumental song 😔 awesome

Perfect song. Thanks

I want this played at my funeral

Does anyone know of any bands/artists that make more music very similar to this song? Meaning lofi instrumental black metal without drums? I've tried before to find a band that sounds like this song, but haven't found any. I just wish Varg had made an entire album with this sound, it's honestly one of my favorite Burzum songs, if not my favorite.

Вот Варг умеет затрагивать тонкие материи души,не вероятный композитор.

death is the beginning of life.

Damn, it's amazing. Varg is very talented and seems to be a pretty cool guy. But his thoughts dominates his personality, destroying all the good things he does and could have done for all this years. :(
