Umskiptar

Umskiptar

Burzum s decade-plus of musical experimentation continues<br>with Umskiptar finding inspiration from the verses of famous<br>scandinavia poem Voluspa. Expanding the ongoing influence<br>of Nordic folk, the album adds more traditional heavy metal,<br>signature Burzum composition, but with a keener emphasis on<br>vocal delivery (again presented in Vikernes native tongue).<br>Vikernes says, Umskiptar is a return-to-roots album for me,<br>with a strong focus on atmosphere and wholeness. The vocals<br>are more important than on any previous album with a total of<br>66 stanzas making up the album s lyrics.
