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.

If I like the music then at least some others will too, and that is all that matters in this context.

Personally I don't understand why the metal press even bother, but I guess it is good they do.

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.

I'd say the modern world has moved yet further away from me, and I don't think whether or not I am incarcerated has had much to say in this context. Living with your family changes you, for the better, and that would be the reason for the accelerated growth in the post-prison period, so to say.

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.

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

Out of pure spite we pretty much always said the opposite of what the other said, no matter what they said, only to mark distance. That's how we ended up calling ourselves Satanists, despite the fact that we absolutely were not. There was not a single Satanist in the whole Black Metal scene in Norway in 1991-92.

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

I grew up with classical music, and to a lesser extent electronic music, and that's where I belong, so to speak.

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.

The more I got to knew about Paganism the more Pagan I became, so to say, but I didn't really know enough until after the creation of Burzum.

The metal press has a certain type of audience, and I think most of them support the magazines' negative focus on me.
Varg Vikernes
Being a man with a conscience I simply felt that I had to do something - anything! - about the world we live in.
Varg Vikernes
My drop in the ocean will contribute to the enlightenment of Europe, so to speak.

If I had the money I'd pay people to have them read accurate books or posts about our own religion. It is very important not only for their self-image, but also for the future of Europe - as a biological term.
Varg Vikernes
The divide between me and the modern world is growing further because I to a larger degree manage to rid myself of my dependence on the modern world. If the modern world collapsed tomorrow I would be fine, and I see so many others who would not be.

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.

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.

Killing a person with a 8 cm ling blunt knife is a bloody affair.

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