Necrobutcher (Mayhem) and Glen Benton (Deicide) Talk Euronymous

The Day Burzum (Almost) Killed Mayhem by Going Mainstream!

Many know that Varg Vikernes' solo project, Burzum, was for a long time signed to his friend/rival Euronymous' record label Deathlike Silence Productions (ex-Posercorpse). Many also know that Burzum was DSP's top earner, and literally the only band that w...

Abbath: "I used to like Demonaz" (Immortal Interview)

Immortal were always a band known for their cringe style of black metal. In fact, they were multiple times nominated as the "most cringe black metal band ever", and that's saying something when you're competing in a genre with Emperor and Dimmu Borgir. Bu...

Morbid: "Modern Death Metal is Washed Up Radio Rock" (Interview)

How Morbid Reformed and Took over Death Metal

There are reunions, and then there is literal resurrection. Most of the former are tedious: aging men in cargo shorts plodding through their back catalog with all the ferocity of a mid-level Pantera cover band (looking at you, Arch Enemy), while the label...

Varg Vikernes Answers 50 Cent, Talks Kanye West

If there ever was a black metal musician associated with controversy, even more so than the "godfather of black metal" Euronymous himself (almost), it would be Burzum's frontman and lone band member Varg Vikernes. Vikernes has always kept Burzum a solo...
