Thus it is related in Voluspaoud blows Heimdall, his horn aloft.
Odin speaks with Mim's head.
The ash Yggdrasil shakes as it stands,
The ancient tree groansnd the giant gets free.
What is it with the Aesir?
What is it with the Elves?
All giantland resounds.
The Aesir are in council
- A Lost And Forgotten Sad Spirit
The Fire in the Sky is Extinguished
Blue Waters no Longer Cry
The Dancing of Trees Has Stopped
The Stream of Freshness from Cold Winds
Exists no Longer
The Rain Has Stopped to Drip
From the Sky
Still Dripping Exists

The fire in the sky is extinguished, blue waters no longer cry
The dancing of trees has stopped, the stream of freshness from cold winds
Exists no longer...
The rain has stopped to drip from the sky
Still dripping exists from the veins of a nearly dead boy
Once there was hatred, once there was cold
Now there is only a dark stone tomb

Voices from the spirit world can be heard through the dark
winternights, the heartbeats of the spirit. It is the holy twelve
days of Yule. Dark shapes can be seen in the sky; riders of
death. They suddenly charge down from the clouds in wonderful
wilderness; kings and chieftains, thieves and murderers - all in
the same phalanx, drifting mysteriously through the air on spirit
horses, arriving when least expected. Black shields, furs from
bear and wolf, shining blades, open wounds and ropes still tied

I wonder how winter will be
With a spring that I shall never see
I wonder how night will be

Seidmannen klatrer opp i tre finner der jords gamle smerte,
Kutter den ned i høstens fred, med saks skjærer ut dets hjerte.
Eikens løv mot bakken faller, seidmannen åndene kaller!
Eikens løv mot jorden faller, seidmannen tryllevers traller!
Løken legges i lintøy ned, hellige eiketreånden.
Seidmannen sikrer verdens fred, fruktbarhet, solmakt i hånden!

Tears from the eyes so cold,
tears from the eyes, in the grass so green.
As I lie here, the burden is being lifted
once and for all, once and for all.
Beware of the light,
it may take you away, to where no evil dwells.
It will take you away, for all eternity.
Night is so beautiful
- Der Tod Wuotans
Drums of war sound. Warriors are gathered to fight on the Wнgriрr plain. Charging men, wolves, ravens and gods, worms and beasts of darkness; the plain is lit with fire. Blood is flowing, bits of flesh, severed limbs, smashed skulls and bodies lie strewn across the plain. Screams cut the air, screams of anger and pain, the sound of metal blades and armour clashing, clubs smashing bodies. Then, for a brief moment, everything stops. It is as if the universe holds its breath. Wuotan has fallen on the Wнgriрr plain; swallowed by Fanjariho. For a moment the time stands still. For Wuotan; Hail and Joy!

Сквозь лес мы вглядывались

Мы слушали песнь эльфов

То, что было однажды – не существует больше.

This is a never before released Burzum track, originally made for the ForeBears movie (available from ancestralcult.com) -- but we never used it. You can use this music as you please privately, but the track is mine, so if you by any chance want to use it commercially you need a permission from me to do so.

I wonder how winter will be with a spring that I shall never see
I wonder how night will be with a day that I shall never see
I wonder how life will be with a light I shall never see
I wonder how life will be with a pain that lasts eternally
In every night there's a different black, in every night I wish that I was back
To the time when I rode through the forests of old
In every winter there's a different cold, in every winter I feel so old

- Frijos Goldene Tranen
Alone in the night, Fijo is crying; she has been left by her
husband who had to leave to fight the darkness of matter.
Thoughts of what once was flow through her mind; their play in
the green grass and under colourful trees, wonderful fields of
flowers, fresh fruits and berries, and beautiful music from the
elven choirs. Running waters make them dream, lakes where they
bathed, riverfalls and marvelous clouds in the sky. They were
happy, they had their Golden Age. Now, all she has left are her

Atmosphere track from the "ForeBears" movie played with a picture of Ängsälvor ('Meadow Elves") by Nils Blommér (1850) in the background. You can use this music as you please privately, but the track is mine, so if you by any chance want to use it commercially you need a permission from me to do so.
This track is not to be found on the upcoming album. It was made for the "ForeBears" film only.

- The Ways Of Yore
Самая искренняя музыка рождается, когда музыкант уже созрел как личность и ему нет нужды кому-то что-то доказывать. Он опирается только на свое мироощущение и передает его посредством музыки. И смотришь потом на этот мир чужими глазами, думая, что сам никогда и не взглянул бы на него с этой стороны. Бурзум продолжает гнуть свою линию и писать очень интересную и противоречивую музыку.
Сразу скажу, что предыдущие работы Викернеса после освобождения как-то прошли меня стороной, ничуть не впечатлив, но из интереса решил все-таки оценить новый альбом. Люблю я эмбиэнт и все ищу в нем достойные релизы. Не так часто попадаются, как хотелось, но перед нами тот самый редкий случай. Нигилизм во плоти - вот как охарактеризую я "The Ways Of Yore". Все гениальное просто, и Варг это очень хорошо знает, не загружая наши уши чем-то заумным и трудновоспринимаемым. Размеренность и однообразие альбома можно приводить в пример, как должна звучать простая музыка, оставаясь при этом загадочной, интригующей. В чем нет равных Викернесу, так это в создании неповторимой атмосферы. Бывают самородки, играют музыку в схожем с этим альбомом ключе, но все же такую выдающуюся личность не переплюнешь. А вот научиться можно многому. Правда, раз он все же перестарался - имеется в виду песня "Heill Odinn", являющая собой монотонную мантру, повторяющуюся не один десяток раз. Дальше - лучше.
С каждой композицией атмосферность набирает обороты и ждешь кульминации. Завораживающе, волшебно слушается это все. В каких-то галлюцинногенных снах придумана эта космическая музыка, она явно далека от мирской суеты и не обременена обыденностью, поглотившей миллионы музыкантов, пытающихся изобрести велосипед, а по сути играя заезженные кем-то ранее пластинки. Размеренный темп меняется лишь в деталях в течение альбома. В первой половине немалой составляющей является Dungeon Synth, но постепенно он идет на убыль, уступая место эмбиэнту. Не хочется никуда спешить, наоборот, приходят в голову мысли о вечном.
Варг повзрослел, стал мудрее, спокойнее. Законченность, концептуальность в этой задумке музыканта близка к идеальной как никогда прежде. В музыкальном плане. В текстах же он, как и ранее, пытается охватить как можно больше тем, создав задел в разнообразии за счет лирики. В обложке и названии - Пути древности - скрыт некий сакральный смысл. Старик держит на руках умирающую деву, при этом ничуть не беспокоясь, словно зная, что это - начало пути. А заключительная композиция, "To Hel And Back Again", это только подтверждает. Ад кажется пустым и замерзшим. Не найдя там ничего, старик вернулся обратно.
- Tuistos Herz
On the slope of a naked rock somewhere in Skapinawjo - the isles of Skapis - a blonde, fur-clad man immortalises his memory of Mannus, the oldest Ing. A large manlike shape is engraved in the rock; bloodred in colour, with a large phallus. His hands are stretching toward the sky. Mannus, the son of Tuisto, made sure his tribe survived the cold north together with his sons; Inguz, Herminuz and Istwo. Tuisto's heart is warmed by the sight of his descendants; he knows the gods are not forgotten. Then - he reasons - there is hope after all, for the coming generations.
