I recall reading about that of Varg not playing guitar anymore but I don't recall the source or how legit this info was.

However, what I do recall is reading this before he got out of prison and before he returned to music and before he released albums that do contain guitar works.

I am not sure if this not-playing-guitar thing was a hoax or a 180 Varg did, but the evidence points out to him using guitars after he got out of prison.

Honestly I am quite lazy and busy to look for this info right now. lmao Maybe later I will.

But yeah, lot of National Socialist Black Metal around.

Well, whether or not that individual story was true, all you have to do is watch his YouTube videos to know that he's a racist. However, he hasn't made a metal album in a while, so maybe he decided that later on?

Chances are he is a racist, but the claim about him saying he would not use guitars anymore needs more evidence I can't find, but I do remember reading about it just like you.

I remember that this assertion about Burzum not using guitars anymore came during his incarceration and I remember that this assertion was the explanation why Varg released those albums using MIDI and not instruments.

But then I remember an interview several years ago after he was out where Varg said he didn't make those MIDI albums for no other reason apart from him having no access to other musical instruments during his years in prison.

Then he came out of prison and released those albums with guitars.
