“To be honest, I would probably rather spend, like, a month in prison than spend a month rehearsing with some musicians, metalheads. I pick prison over that, really. And I say that knowing well what prison is like, so don't get me wrong here. Prison sucks big time.”

Norwegian musician

Varg Vikernes, also known as Louis Cachet, is a Norwegian musician born in 1973. He became known through the black metal project Burzum and later for his violent crimes and far-right politics. Between 1992 and 1996, he released five albums as Burzum, and he is often described as an influential figure in the early Norwegian black metal scene and its National Socialist offshoot. In 1994, he was convicted of the murder of guitarist Øystein "Euronymous" Aarseth and of burning four Christian churches in Norway. He received a 21-year prison sentence and was released after serving 15 years.
