Burzum – Reh / Demo 91 (1991)

February 18, 2024

Impossibly raw, barely audible tape demo that would no doubt be lost to time if it existed in solitude, but is now an incredibly important document in the history and development of extreme metal music. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not insinuating that “Demo 2” from Varg is some slept on lost classic that scholars of black metal NEED to check out, but for those who have studied every other piece of work from Burzum and turned over every other rock, hearing the “classics” here in their rawest, primitive rehearsal form can be a rewarding experience.
