1* ArtistDisillusionment: Varg ''really'' doesn't like the modern BlackMetal scene, going so far as to compare them to homosexuals and "stereotypical Negroes." Stay classy, Varg!
2* CreatorBacklash: Hates the modern BlackMetal scene and has apparently claimed that he's going to stop making metal for good. Time will tell if he keeps his word, which he did when he announced on his Youtube channel Thulean Perspective, admitting he never intended Burzum to continue or so long.
3* ScrewedByTheNetwork: Varg lost three [=YouTube=] channels in June 2019 due to the site's new policy on hate speech. It seems he's given up on trying to get back on there for the time being, although he now retains a rather controversial following on Twitter, masquerading under a ''Lord of the Rings'' reference (despite denying it is him).
4* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Around the time of recording the ''Aske'' EP, Varg condsidered playing some gigs with Burzum, so he hired [[Music/{{Emperor}} Samoth]] on bass and Erik Lancelot on drums. However, he quickly dismissed this idea and decided that he didn't really need other musicians (although Samoth played bass on two songs from the aforementioned EP). Given [[MurderIsTheBestSolution how his other attempt]] at playing in [[Music/{{Mayhem}} a band]] with other people went, however, this might have been for the best.
