Burzum is the debut studio album by Norwegian black metal artist Burzum. It was released in March 1992, through Deathlike Silence Productions. Six of the songs were later re-recorded in 2010 and released on the album From the Depths of Darkness, as Varg Vikernes was dissatisfied with some of the original vocals and production.

The album was re-released as Burzum / Aske to include the songs from the Aske EP.[1] Only the Aske version of "A Lost Forgotten Sad Spirit" was included on this, but the original version was included on Burzum 1992–1999, released by Byelobog Productions.
