In the 1990's, the Norwegian band Ulver was considered to be one of the most extreme black metal groups. These days the group's sound is explained as a "low-key, dark and tragic" one and with the upcoming release of their seventh studio album ??Shadows of the Sun?? (Jester) it's apparent the band has come a long way from their angst filled black metal days. Still, the group is commonly dubbed ...

No two albums by this band seem to be the same. It's good to see a band that were, and still are, doing things a bit differently than others in the black metal genre. If they just built a sound around the first track on this album it would still sound interesting. Top-notch production - none of that 'in the bedroom' TM sound quality here (which they actually used on a later album). Clean, drone...

Another post about Ulver. It's way past midnight but my brain is still working. I am listenning right now to Nattens madrigal and I remember that when I first heard it, I thought it was one of the most frightenning album I'd ever heard. In fact, I didn't listen to it all the way through because it made me feel ill at ease. Now, I can listen to it without any problem and I see it as another stro...

In my brain I have this image of an early winter sunset, on the edge of a forest of pine trees. There is a gentile snow falling, and a warrior woman on a horse her body hidden under a cloak. The music in my head, Black Metal, it’s cold, it’s cool, it’s dark and for me it’s something that I can wrap myself in. something that can and will hide me from the elements, and let me slip out of th

According to Last fm, a lot of people are listenning to Ulver. And they should. A band as great as this should not be overlooked like most talented bands or artists that are left to the deepest zone of the underground. But stil, Ulver is an underground band. They come from Norway, a country that has produced mostly black metal bands. Great, because, you see, Ulver was a black metal band. I don'...
