Hliðskjálf (in English, Hidden Opening Into Asgard or Secret Ritual-Site) is an album by Norwegian black metal solo project Burzum. This album in particular was recorded by Burzum artist Varg Vikernes while he was imprisoned for murder and arson. Vikernes has said that he will no longer make music, at least under the name Burzum, making Hliðskjálf likely to be the final Burzum album.[citation needed] However, in a May 2005 interview, Varg said he will most likely continue to make music after his release in a typical metal style.[1] He also mentioned that Dauði Baldrs and Hliðskjálf were created with synthesized instruments as he was not allowed any other instruments while being imprisoned.
