Last.Many of you have been waiting for sound, and we are sorry for the silence.We have been working, sluggishly, well aware we could end up with nothing.We feel it is our most personal record to date.ULVER, Oslo, July 13 2007."Ulver were once a seminal black metal band.But even in a scene that sent shockwaves around the world, Ulver were outsiders.While other black metallers were "slaves to the one with horns", Ulver were inspired by Thomas Kingo, a 17th century composer of psalms.As the band matured, their influences became even more eclectic.Techno auteurs Autechre rubbed shoulders with visionary mystic William Blake.Ulver have released acoustic folk albums and instrumental techno records, raw metal and industrial soundscapes, and they have composed music for films.I'd like to say that they are equally comfortable with whatever medium they choose, but that would be a lie.This makes every new release from Ulver interesting because you not only have to ask "is it good?"Ulver, that's a redundant question) but "what kind of music is it?"This might sound like a paradox, but Ulver thrive on such paradoxes.Their fears have been given a shapely form indeed, capable, perhaps, of bringing a little comfort to some.It sees Ulver abandon many of their grand concepts, to focus on music and human emotion.Pamelia Kurstin help make SHADOWS OF THE SUN a piece of rare beauty.SHADOWS OF THE SUN sees Ulver borrow some pigments from David Sylvian's palette, using it to transport their own visions onto the canvas.Incidentally, Austrian audio abstracter Christian Fennesz, an associate of Sylvian, also help make this album what it is.Other comparions could be made.The band are avowed fans of Coil.But such comparisons only cheapen, because Ulver really don't sound like anybody you already know.DERLIND

a9AdsViewNamespace.Although Ulver's next musical accomplishment is always unpredictable, this album feels like more of a natural evolution than their previous transitions.Somehow it just feels like a big, futuristic, busy city at night, going through a subway tunnel and on the street and Sometimes only the imagination can explain what Ulver sounds like.Going down deeper than the dark"
"Christmas" has got to be the best song.It gives the beginning a very cold feel, like Christmas is too cold to enjoy this year.Then the familiar (but so unfamiliar) wild Ulver beat begins, including Garm's sailing vocals, continuing with the bells, adding plenty of horns and wild percussion.Reminds me a little of Silencing the Singing."It is not Sound" is actually kind of noisy.Some parts are quite noisy and almost have an industrial type feel, There's also a real quiet part with Garm's sort of wailing vocals with a memorable little melody on top.This one is pretty difficult to explain, it goes all over the place.This part is extremely wild and innovative, and a blast to listen to, too bad it wasn't a bit longer.Next is "Your Call" which is the song everyone will check their cell phone to make sure it isn't ringing.It starts out very ambient until Garm's vocals kick in, and the song kicks off with great momentum.So, in conclusion, if you like Ulver's other electronic works, this is definitely going to add to that, and if you want to get into them this is a pretty good place to start."Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided to other Amazon.Most bands that do this are said to be "finding their own sound" or "experimenting" but one does not get that impression about Ulver.Each of their releases sound extermely calculated, like the sound they achieved is exactly what they were going for.Despite this, Ulver sounds so comfortable in this new sound.The most pleasing thing about this album in my opinion is that it's not instrumental.Don't get me wrong, I've really enjoyed their instrumental EP's and soundtracks but I really like the vocals that Garm (or Trickster G, Krystoffer or whatever he's going by this month) provides.I've always thought he has an excellent voice even since their "black metal" beginings but his "clean" vocals are just outstanding.Whenever I've mentioned Ulver to the uninitiated, the question of what they sound like inevitably comes up.Trying to explain what Ulver sounds like to one that has never had the pleasure of hearing them is like trying to explain what a Picasso or a Van Gogh "looks like".People will probably think I'm nuts but if I had to make a comparison, I'd probably say something like "imagine if Bjork was three Norweigan guys that used to play black metal, instead of a gal from Iceland".They both have consistently put out unique "electronic" albums over the years, backed by strong, distinct vocals.Even if the comparison is valid, it still doesn't do Ulver justice as they've always been uniquely "Ulver".If you're already an Ulver fan, chances are you've already bought this or are planning to because you know and love their unique style.If you've never had the pleasure of hearing Ulver, I highly recommend picking this up.Favorite songs: In The Red, Dressed In Black, It Is Not Sound.I've seen in a long while.I'm going to start this review with a warning to all newcomers to the Ulver sound...There, Now that thats over with onto the review of Ulver's "Blood Inside".This was my introduction to Ulver, as much as I hate to admit it.Ulver's sound is truly unique, It denies all categories, genres, or labels.Its has elements of Classical, electronic, ambient, metal, soundscape, Jazz, blah blah blah You get the picture.Its incredibly hard to compare Ulver to any other Band or sound out there...Ulver is Ulver and thats all there is to it.It ends with a pulsating sound with wavy, chillingly hypnotic vocals That kick off the next track "For the Love of God".Although there is some interesting guitar work, drumming, and solo's, This track is ruled my the synthesizer, and it rules with an iron fist.The Bells at the end means it time for another of the best tracks from the album; "Christmas".You won't find yourself skipping this one.You have to listen to it to really understand why I love it so much."Blinded By Blood", You know its time for "It is not Sound".Which is the only "Single" from "Blood Inside".Single to say the least, with a strange drone and vocals holding the spotlight for the first minute and a half.This is another of my favorites, Its another track which shows off the more electronic sound of ulver.It also sports an insanely long,(around 1:18 long) but not boring keyboard solo near the end of the song.This song is very hard to describe.Garm shushing the listener.The highlight of this song really is the
way they go about it.Proving that Ulver can do whatever the hell they want to do.But its a great track and doesn't ever get boring.Your toes will be tapping to the great rhythm that last throughout the entire track."Your call" ends "Operator" immediately blasts through your speakers.This is another Track that you have to listen to to understand.And those underlying parts are what keep people always coming back for more.If you've only listened to this record a couple of times and didn't enjoy it as much as some of their other (recent) work, give it a few more listens.I'm not trying to convince you that this is the end all be all of Ulver, that this is Ulver's best work and if you like "Perdition City" (for example) better your nuts, or even that this is the Pinnacle of Ulver, there may still be more to come.Just on a side note, in case you haven't noticed, Ulver may not be for you.For example if you want some music to go to the gym and pump some iron to, Ulver Probably won't float your boat."Blood Inside" is a record to sit down in a room by yourself and listen to, doing little else, other then appreciating it for the masterpiece that it is.Was this review helpful to you?Despite the fact that Ulver displayed a notable penchant for flagrant genre hopping right from the get go, with the wildly oscillating _Bergtatt_, the stripped back acoustic folk...For 25 years, I've selectively purchased and become familiar with hundreds(or thousand+ ?Published 7 months ago by D.This is the album that introduced me to this great band, and I can honestly say that I have never been more pleased with a purchase in my life!The Next Step Of Ulver
After a host of short and sweet electronic EP's, Ulver created one of their most enthralling works with 2005's "Blood Inside".This album feels so dreamy, as layered like a wedding cake, simultaniously relaxing and disturbing.I've ever heard stuff that's so stupid.Uncompromising creativity at its most captivating peak!Finally the new Ulver full length has made it's way into my eager hands.Since 2000s massive "Perdition City", they have released no less than 3 EPs and 2 movie soundtracks.Published 23 months ago by B.Ulver return with their next morphing of music.Ulver's new album Blood Inside is the latest full length album by these Norwegians on the End Records label.Their last full length was Perdition City a few years back.Published on August 25, 2005 by M.See all 23 customer reviews...Be the first person to add an article about this item at Amapedia.What Do Customers Ultimately Buy After Viewing Items Like This?Ulver: A guide by Mr.Find out in Music You Should Hear, where these and other artists tell you about the music they love.Greats from the Greatest
