The production? It's black metal, production isn't that big of an issue, if even one at all. I mean, production that's so bad you have to turn up your stereo to the max just to hear a faint whisper of music is one thing, but as long as it is intelligeble on some level, that's all it needs.
I honestly don't see how you can think there are no emotion or feeling in any Burzum, when I listen to it and see a canvas filled with emotion. And that's a lot of why I love Burzum.
And you can go on and on about the message when you run out of things to bitch about. But, even though the message isn't one I agree with, I will say that the lyrics are superbly written.
I will still stand by my thought that Hvis Lyset Tar Oss is the best black metal album I have ever heard.
I think that what makes HLTO so great is the atmosphere, the canvas filled with emotion as Zefferon said, and the incredible feeling of hypnosis you get when listening to it; there are so many bands that try to imitate Burzum's sound but they simply can't; I mean if it's so crapy music, how come no one can imitate it, you say the guitar workit's simple, that the drums do nothing at all, etc etc, but no band ever, has recreated Burzum's sound. It's original, it's fresh, it's inspiring, it's.....simply great.

The drummer is so fucking bad (he doesn't do anything), the guitarists are constantly slipping off time! The vocalist is just... well he's ridiculous, and bad (this is coming from a vocalist). And yes, the production is shit, but even with good production it would still be terrible. The music is so fucking boring and retarded.
Several comments on this one:
First of all, no one in this site comes and tells you that the music you hear is retarded, so get yourself some maners, you punk, or go to one of those fuckin' trendy forums like Kerrang, where you can discuss how cool the production on the new Atreyu album is.
Second if you've got the balls to critizise one of the biggest Black Metal bands, also have the brains to do the minimum of investigation. Burzum = Varg, Varg = Burzum, no other musicians. Who in this world is gonna think you have a strong and intelligent opinion when it's obious you know crap about the most common subjects in a genre.
Third, this is what happens when a stupid un-polite punk comes and posts in a respected site I love. You don't have to agree with everything people say on this site but you sure have to be polite so get some manners people or get the fuck out of here. As a very respected person has in it's signature: "Remember we're Metal, not an ass-kissing whore".
Fuck me, this guy sure made me curse :evil: ............. sorry. :?
