I don't make music for any other reason than me enjoying music, and I am also glad that I am able to make a living of this.

Naturally I never had the intention to offend or alienate Slavs. ... What makes me different from the 'nazis' are basically three things unlike them I am not socialistic (not even on a national level), I am not materialistic and I believe in (the ancient Scandinavian!) democracy.

My musical ambitions are not that great. I make music I like, and thankfully - for my ability to make an (fairly...) honest living - at least some others like the music too.

My drop in the ocean will contribute to the enlightenment of Europe, so to speak.

My own growth comes not (just) individually, but mainly as part of a greater change for the better.

Unless you already have a name well known in at least one stratum of society, I don't think trying to do things yourself will be easy - if at all possible.

Being attacked by the press is not something I see as a problem, but rather a confirmation that I am on the right track. It is even better when they ignore me completely, like the Norwegian press does that means they are really afraid.

To a large degree I don't even like most metal music I hear.

I don't need to publish anything to make a living, so to speak, and I think it is much more important to spread information about our European religion than it is to make money from doing so.

Words and ideas can change or influence the mind just like music can - yes, like a spell. Regarding the effect of my spells I think it varies my music communicates with some, and I think it has had a positive influence on the minds of those who like it. I hope it helped them see the world from a different perspective.

My own growth is a part of a group evolution, definitely. It does feel as if the changes in the group are meant to be, and that I am not as much a catalyst, so to say, but rather a result of this.

I like Iron Maiden and a few other bands, but by and large I don't like metal music. Most of it simply put reeks. This meant that it was no great loss for me to drop the metal music altogether.
Varg Vikernes
Personally I don't understand why the metal press even bother, but I guess it is good they do.

Being a Pagan without knowing much about Paganism is a bit silly, in the sense that you would probably have been a Pagan had you known more, but you could not really be because you only knew so much about it.

Being sociable is a sacrifice, as I see it. I really don't like to be, but it is necessary and worth it.

The problem is that mainly the metal press has an interest in Burzum, and the rest of the world... probably hardly even know Burzum exists, and those who do shy away due to my fairly (:-))

I have a fairly well known name, so for me to do things my way is not that hard.

A man can only grow to a certain point when alone to grow further you need some irrational shocks, like a wife and children a dramatic change to your own life.

I do feel we live through what I like to call The 2nd Renaissance, but although I foresee a widespread return to the European religion I don't foresee a return to the past. The world has changed, everything is different today, and so will Paganism be.
