Bolt the door, Varg is loose!

Sadly, I read Vargsmål.

Here is a quote:

"Drugs are to a larger degree used and misused. Either it is considered to be an 'adult' with coffee or 'cool' with pot and cola."

No shit.

that cola is pretty cool stuff

i like how he was allowed to make music with a synthesizer in prison, but not with a guitar. (synthpop-fans i guess)

He could have had either, but he had to choose one.

looks like he chose the beard

Didn't he decide that guitars were too 'black' but synths were an Aryan instrument so he was OK with that? Kinda think he might be the only person ever to hold that opinion

decided metal could be traced back to blues so he wasnt down with it

think he's the only bm dude to cop to that

BURZUM Mastermind To Be Portrayed By 'Twilight' Heartthrob In 'Lords Of Chaos' Movie - May 21, 2009

Jackson Rathbone, the teen heartthrob from "Twilight", has reportedly agreed to play Varg Vikernes (a.k.a. Count Grishnackh) — the former BURZUM mastermind who is currently serving a Norwegian prison term for the August 1993 murder of MAYHEM guitarist Oystein Aarseth (a.k.a. Euronymous) and setting fire to three churches — in the upcoming movie "Lords Of Chaos".

Well, whoever wrote this news blurb apparently doesn't know that Varg is already out.

wait so they're actually going forward with that movie??

according to roadrunner

i was gonna say i thought he was out

this is one of my fave thread titles btw

i read it to the tune of "The Beast" by the Fugees

oh god this movie is gonna be awful(ly hilarious)

rock movies never get it right

Director is to be Sion Sono. IMDB him. If you've seen his 'Suicide Club', you will realise that getting it right isn't even going to be on the agenda, and that this is going to be batshit crazy beyond belief.

how do you even make this a movie imo like

what

I was just in Bergen, Norway two days ago and tried to get our Norwegian hosts to start talking about Varg's release and its possible effects on black metal and such and they were all sorta meh about it, like, "yeah yeah been there done that, that was like ten years ago dude get a late pass" etc. But it's a weird place for sure in terms of the cultural visibility of this stuff- they said that members of Immortal play at the Jazz Fest and the Norwegian govt. pays doom bands to play in churches now.

^That sounds like a good premise for a movie!

OK I kind of want to live in Norway now.

Varg hates Lords of Chaos. I confess I'm not sure if the man's right about what he claims, but I thought the book was good reading - and balanced.

anyway Varg doesn't look much Tr00 Kvlt Metal in these latest pics. Black metallers get old too!

Director is to be Sion Sono. IMDB him. If you've seen his 'Suicide Club',

oh my GOD!!!!!!!

I love Suicide Club.

it does have some potential to be bananas

ok wait if this is the suicide club dude i am so stoked for how awesome this could be

right???

They are talking about cgi fantasy sequences, so I'm guessing the approach will be something like Peter Jackson's 'Heavenly Creatures', where you see the real-life character's fantasies mixed in with the factual events as they play out: Varg as viking warrior, and as metal teen; Euronymous as black wizard, and as record shop guy, and so on.

Needless to say, I don't think said real-life characters, the surviving ones anyway, are going to be very happy with this at all.

If the movie turns out anything like this - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Ycjun-J9iY - I will definitely be going to see it.

What have they done to Elric? But, yes, I'd expect it to look like this, though with much better music.

That's a point - do the filmmakers have the rights to any of the music? Would be a major stumbling block if they don't, seeing as it's what the story is really about, and I'd expect they'd get total noncooperation from all concerned.

I can totally see this working as a Wallace & Gromit-style claymation film.

"they said that members of Immortal play at the Jazz Fest and the Norwegian govt. pays doom bands to play in churches now"

its so perfect, in some way.

"govt. pays doom bands to play in churches" must be Sunn o))) at the Domkirke? Immortal at a Jazz Fest, I don't know about.

they should go a svankmejer route

with the movie, i mean. i can't speak for Immortal

(though it could only help, i guess)

NO MORTAL can speak for IMMORTAL!

that elric video... omg.

Varg's gone metal again...

Varg Vikernes (a.k.a. Count Grishnackh), the BURZUM mastermind who was convicted of murdering MAYHEM guitarist Oystein Aarseth (a.k.a. Euronymous) in August 1993 and setting fire to three churches, has finished writing nine songs for BURZUM's new album, which he hopes to release next year. He tells Norway's Dagbladet that several record labels are interested in issuing the band's first LP in eleven years. "I want take my time [with the album], so that I can get it the way I like it," Vikernes says. "It will be metal and the fans can expect to hear some real BURZUM."

Dagbladet has posted several exclusive excerpts from Varg Vikernes' as-yet-unpublished book which he wrote during his nearly-16-year prison stay. The book contains Varg's personal account of of what transpired in the years from the Norwegian black metal community's inception in 1991 until he was convicted for murder and church fires three years later.

"I am not the 'Count' that has been portrayed in the media," Vikernes tells Dagbladet. "That is just sad. Those who have known me a long time know that what was written about me was not the complete truth. But I am partly to blame for how things were presented in the press. That's why I wrote this book, which I hope to release via a publisher. I will lay this issue to rest and put what happened behind me. I will begin a new phase in life."

Dagbladet: Do you regret the fact that you killed another human being?

Vikernes: "I cannot regret the fact that I took the life of somone who wanted to kill me. I felt threatened by his plans, but it was never my inention to kill."

Dagbladet: Do you think that you can kill again?

Vikernes: "Everyone is capable of killing. But there is less chance that I will kill again, because I've been in that situation before, and so I know better how to deal with it. It is not possible to know how to behave in threatening situations before you even end up in such a situation. Had I been in the same situation today, I would have contacted the police first."

Although his parole application was denied four times — most recently in September 2008 — Vikernes received word in February that he would be released after serving almost 16 years in prison. He was finally allowed to leave this past spring, according to Dagbladet.

Vikernes currently resides in Bø, a municipality in the county of Telemark, Norway. Varg purchased the farm sometime last year and lives on the property with his French wife (whom he met while he was incarcerated) and son.

"It was completely random that we ended up buying a home here," Vikernes tells Dagbladet. "We wanted a quiet and peaceful place with beautiful scenery outside the city. It is so beautiful up here. Here we can be by ourselves. But there is a lot of work that is required to maintain the house, lawn and garden."

"Drugs are to a larger degree used and misused. Either it is considered to be an 'adult' with coffee or 'cool' with pot and cola."

Still dying over this.
