Wikipedia
Burzum (/ˈbɜrzəm/; Norwegian: [ˈbʉːrsʉːm]) is the musical project of Varg Vikernes. Vikernes began making music in 1988, but it was not until 1991 that he recorded his first demos as Burzum. The word "burzum" means "darkness" in the Black Speech, an artificial language crafted by J. R. R. Tolkien. The project quickly became prominent within the early Norwegian black metal scene. Vikernes recorded the first four Burzum albums between January 1992 and March 1993. However, the releases were spread out, with many months between the recording and the release of each album. In May 1994, Vikernes was sentenced to 21 years in prison for the murder of Mayhem guitarist Øystein 'Euronymous' Aarseth and the arson of three churches.
