Vikernes founded the Norwegian black metal band in 1991 and the act is considered one of the most influential musical groups in the genre.

While the Burzum frontman is most well known for the murder of Mayhem's Euronymous, which he was sentenced to 21 years behind bars for in 1993, Vikernes is infamous for promoting Nazism in the 90s.

While in prison for murder, Vikernes is believed to have founded the far-right group Heathen Front. The anti-semitic group operated under the belief system "Odalism" and openly promoted white supremacist ideals and Nazism.

Vikernes was released from prison after 16 years and moved to France, where he continued to spread hateful ideologies.

In 2013, the Guardian reported that the Burzum frontman was arrested on suspicion of plotting a "large terrorist act” but was released 48 hours later.

Vikernes' 2013 arrest was not the end of his problems in France. In 2014, he was arrested and found guilty of a hate crime after inciting violence on his blog, according to Norwegian outlet The Local.

Vikernes was hit with a six-month suspended prison sentence and a $10,000 fine over his blog postings that applauded war crimes and promoted discrimination against Muslims and Jews.
