Mozart composed at 13. Consider THAT

@@jmanalfaro ahahahah

Just talent !!!! Hail varg

@@jmanalfaro yeah but he wasn't black metal tho

@@todensarg Exactly. Mozart composed proper music.

+Oh yeah He is a visionary and a genius

+Reus Palin Olen samaa mieltä. Burzum on kaunista = In English: I agree. Burzum is beautiful.

+LIPresume Yeah,Varg is great man.

and a fucking racist

pieter melkam maybe.

great comment ;-)

And the shortest way to a man`s heart is a woman who can appreciate Burzum.

ThuleanPerspective You won ❤

Can you blame him tho?

lol the last one looks like a bootleggy one

Why not

@@owiewan0112 I think he said he printed some himself or a friend did.

:DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

You both are plebs.

yeah dude

why plebs?

cuz plebs cant understand complex music. you know keep it simple idiot

Music is sound, plain and simple. Believe it or not, but not every one plays an instrument so technique doesn't mean shit to them and it shouldn't matter unless the actual song sounds good as well. Is it better to have a technical song with no feel or just a jerk of session on guitar just showing of. Music is not a math game, its about creating a sound that resonates with some one. Should some one just resent what they like because some elitist fuck says so. fuck you. Techniques are but tools to get a certain sound, nothing more. If you are technical for the sake of being technical whats the fucking point? Oh yeah you can play well, but cant use your own skill to make something worth listening to.

As any true artist should.

I can't agree more. That's why I love his music so much

And Euronymous's heart

Or lack of heart

@@jjs8426 this

+ravn the wise Its a blessing and a curse at the same time. Dont worry, i feel your pain...or pleasure. whatever we may consider it to be.

+ravn the wise This music always makes me feel like I'm on the cusp of remembering something from deep in my memory, but can't seem to fully bring it to the light of remembrance.

Have you tried gojira ?

@@dogsay1078 lmao

i cant enjoy it, wish i could though. as i love the idea of black metal and everything there is to know about the history

War

Key to the gate was, is and will be 🔥

Dunkelheit

Jesu Tod for me, the second riff when the bass drum first kicks in is just to intense.

Lord of the Dephts

Varg definitely is an underrated talent, but Tony Iommi still is 'the' riffmaster.

The right hand is pretty much doing the same thing all the time. I think the lack of rhythmic dynamics is holding Varg back from being a better riffsman.

You can hear Iommi's influence in plenty of these riffs

Rayene Boussetta That's because he's first and lucky. Tony Iommi aint shit.

28leftbehind millions of people would disagree

Hagel its up there with bach

I recently discovered Burzum and now I can't seem to be able to listen to any of the stuff I liked before. Any explanation to this?

@CometFuchs makes sense, cuz I still only listen to Burzum and certain Darkthrone and Mayhem songs

+Macellarius666 it should be there, Burzums greatest riff for me

Mr.Monkeyman Damn right

+Macellarius666 But Burzum really has so many great riffs and songs, they cant all make it on to one list

+Macellarius666 I think the greatest riff of burzum is, last part of Dunkelheit

to me the best is spell of destruction or lost wisdom or key to the gate..damn they all are

There are plenty of more riffs that would of course fit into this compilation but I had to choose and I selected my personal top ten. The song can be seen separately in my channel if you'd like to see it.

Yes, you have a nice collection of covers on your channel, keep it up, I just thought that that single riff was too iconic for black metal in general to skip. However, I do see your point so I'm not complaining. Do you happen to have your own one-man band by the way?

***** I did record some personal tracks with every instrument played by me but I never published it anywhere except for the song "The Journey" which is also in my channel. Beside that I play in a live band.

Stvn2337 Aha, cool. I gave the song a listen, it's really good. I'm somewhat of a session/live guitarist too but I prefer doing my own stuff as the metal scene in my area is rather dead. It's not a bad thing having a solo project, though, you could have some future success with one.

***** I think it would be a good idea to wait until my KZfaq channel is a little bigger to use it as promotion when I upload my personal records. The band I play in is fairly successful. It's also just a band that plays cover songs but it's fun as hell: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kJamdbB7x67ae6c.html (the female vocalist is from the audience)

ausgebombit LMFAO

I see what you did there ;)

With fiery passion?

23 exactly

@Owen J. he deserves it

Emiliano Santori Oy vey, look at who we have here!

Trve Kvlt Ayy

can you just. leave?

And Euronymous is a dead legend.

@@samotargos5199 dead is also dead legend

Yes. A top "10" doesn't do justice for Burzum and Varg himself. There are just way too many. Lost Wisdom, En Ring Til Aa Herske..

Theres another vid of a guy who plays 50 burzum riffs. Recommended

Only one of those ever existed and Varg married her

@@lance-biggums Marie Cachet

@@damnedbelowjudas_ dude, is lile the 5th time that i found a comment of you today! This is crazy!!!! :D

Elfen Lied depressed the shit outta me...lmao

agreed, i probably listen to this at least 3 times a week

Thanks for your kind words.

+Kelly Moon totally agree

Yes.

Agreed. Best riff Varg ever made was the Det Som En Gang Var one in this vid IMO, I even think Det Som En Gang Var has the 2 best Burzum riffs, there is another great riff somewhere at the end of it. Probably because I like not only the riff itself, but also the tuning. I always have something with classical thrash/death riffs especially if they're made slower to fit into black metal.

Every riff is a killer one, and it just sets the darkest mood for me, but in a beautiful way. I guess like Norway itself, dark and beautiful. Doesn't he tune up?

Strange thing about det som engang var is that all the riffs in the song are too simple yet so brilliant at the same time.

On a little sidenote, I suspect he uses all 6 strings on the last hit on the recording (3-5-5-3-3-3 instead of 3-5-5), but honestly the latter sounds better with proper quality recording.

DemandTheMan check out my cover too.

I agree

+Aluminium Soup I'm afraid not. It's one of a kind

thank you!

Stvn2337 I agree with you that the endpart of "Key to the Gate" is simply the best!
