Recently released after serving a prison term for the murder of MAYHEM guitarist Oystein Aarseth (aka Euronymous) and a string of church burnings, BURZUM mastermind Varg Vikernes (aka Count Grishnackh) has revealed to Norway's Dagbladet that he has already finished writing nine songs for a new Burzum album, which he hopes to release next year.
He says that several record labels are interested in releasing the first Burzum album in eleven years.
"I want (to spend) time, so I can get it the way I like it. The (album will be) metal, and fans can expect (the) real Burzum", he said.
