BURZUM Fallen Limited Edition Clear Vinyl LP (2011)

Varg Vikernes has always been a figure who makes black metal uncomfortable to love, and that's exactly the point. Fallen, released in 2011, arrived during his post-prison renaissance, a record that stripped the genre back to something cold and atmospheric, more Dungeon Synth in spirit than war metal in execution.

This limited edition clear vinyl pressing from 2011 is the kind of object that sits in a collection and means something. Fallen leans heavily into the ambient, droning side of Burzum's catalog, closer to Filosofem than Filosofem's own shadows. Side A opens with the brief instrumental Fra Verdenstreet before unfolding into some of the most hypnotic black metal Vikernes put to tape in his second act. For collectors of Norwegian black metal, gothic dark aesthetic vinyl, and anyone who insists on hearing the hiss and warmth of a physical format, this pressing delivers.
