Bergtatt is possibly the best black/folk metal album ever made

Anyone who enjoys Ulver as much as I do is good people. Death metal to black metal to electronica to pop... they are phenomenal. I think Perdition City has to be my fave, it's so damn chill yet urgent at the same time. Bergtatt is phenomenal too though, incredibly consistent

This was one of the best things you've featured. Great. 4.4. Reminds me of Angelo Badalamenti, Thought Gang, and Barry Adamson. Love it. It's like a futuristic industrial beatnik jam. I dig it, man.

Perdition City has been one of my favourite albums for like 15 years. It just has this excellent dark mood. It always felt kind of like a soundtrack to me, like something from a modern film noir with rainy dark streets. The only other Ulver album that even comes close to this, at least for me, is Shadows of the Sun (although I do like Blood Inside as well)

Ulver - The Power of Love (Frankie Goes to Hollywood cover) never imagined they come up with something like this, and they nailed it

oh and Blinded by blood by Ulver is an atmospheric masterpiece

Reminds me of some of Messiaen's work. Although the work is a lot longer, Turangalila-Symphonie gives me a similar feeling to this, as does (although the composition is vastly different) Quartet for the End of Time. I'd also throw in, although it's far less experimental, the prelude to Lohengrin by Wagner, which has a similarly disquieting, but moving feel. Really nice work. 4.3.

Their newest album was also super different than any of their other stuff. Great song great band. Would love a reaction to Deafheaven.

Sigur Ros and Cowboy BeBop shout outs! As for changes: King Crimson, Genesis, Miles Davis.

If you want to discuss musical evolution/changes, I highly recommend doing a run through Green Carnations discog. ESPECIALLY, their first demk and Light of Day Day of Darkness, followed by the Acoustic verses. Its such a wild ride of genres and musical song writing techniques. As well Anathema, where with A Natural Disaster they stepped away from Doom and wholly embraced progressive. As for Perditjon City. This album has been an absolute favorite for over 2 decades. ❤

Never thought you'd be doing Ulver ever! Great choice Justin. I have always loved EOS. I hope you feature it some day.

I'm gonna have to listen to the rest of this album, guys. Thanks for the introduction!

Speaking to changes in musical taste over time, the bands all change as well. Most old school favorites of mine changed for the worse over time, but some have evolved well to my ears. Dynamic bands whose sound changes with each LP are rare. Extreme examples include Ministry "Effigy" to "Stigmata". New Order is classic... "In a Lonely Place" to "Round and Round ". The Beatles changed extremely as well. The Cure "One Hundred Years" to "The Caterpillar " is extreme. Genesis HAD to change due to losing band members. Some bands change just because they're so good and desire to do something different. And artist who leave bands and sound different solo like Peter Gabriel and Phil Collins from Genesis or Sting from The Police, I could go on all night. It's fun to ponder.

I like it a lot sounds like a movie score. I'll give it a 4.0 also

Since you've done the Gathering maybe you"ll be interested in one if their songs featuring the vocalist from Ulver called A life all mine

this is my favourite band of all time. i fucking love this band. i cannot put it into words....other than garm is god.

First time seeing this channel, I will suggest whatever song title that peeks your interest off of Stellar Master Elite’s album Hologram Temple.

Atomship - Aliens

I liked, but it scared my 🐕 (subwoofer shook my windows). Prefer Bass Communion’s ambience. Joe Jackson went from punk to ska to jazz then big band! In the course of Four albums. Music was so good, I went along for the ride. His big band album, which I forget the name, is a blast!

Haujobb if you dig this

Ulver - Hymne IV: Wolf And Man

PLEASE REACT: Heart’s tribute to Led Zeppelin Stairway to Heaven Features Jason Bohnam on drums! Makes Robert Plant cry!

Do you two ever play popular groups, people don't listen to these unpopular groups. TEN YEARS AFTER played at Woodstock but play Standing at Station, album rocking roll music to the world

Never heard of them. I know why you turned the lights out. IT'S DARK Parts of it were ok. Only a 2 for me. Widespread Panic - Picking Up the Pecies.

I think this song had potential to be something great but wound up being a tease. 2.5 for me.
