Burzum cassette
This is a Cymophane/Necropolis version of Burzum's 1993 "Det Som Engang Var". It is unplayed and literally in perfect shape. Varg left the Deathlike Silence label and started Cymophane, then licenced this to Necropolis. Very, very few were made as Necropolis, according to Varg, ripped him off, hence he considers this a "bootleg" but it is an official release. Misanthropy soon released it on cd/vinyl on their label. Only cassetes were made and they were only available in the US. It even has translations in English.

I'd love to know the number on these because I have one also virtually brand new.
Hi! I know right? I have NO idea.. But it must be very, very few, as varg started cymophane directly after.. A very limited time period between DSP and missnthropy. From the interview i read at burzum.org, he basically gave licensing to Necropolis but soon changed his mind and went to
Misanthropy. Ive seen the tape go for 70 or 80 euro/dollars on ebay. I also know that the tape is rare enough to have been "auctioned off" by the enslaved guys as a recent hole in the sky festival in bergen. However, no mattet how hard i dig i cannot yet find an actuall print number;(
I have one of this!! \m/ O \m/
