I am very much looking forward to this album. Ulver is such a unique band, and I hope this will be a great follow-up to "Wars of the Roses".

Oh boy oh boy oh boy.

Is this true? New album already?

I can't wait!

It's not an actual studio album - it's a live album from the concert with the Tromsø Chamber Orchestra:

ULVER with TROMSØ CHAMBER ORCHESTRA: Messe I.X-VI.X
This one will be released by us, here - in the ether - next year, putting it up for download only via our new app and related online channels.

More info on Messe I.X-VI.X - formats and pre-ordering etc. - will follow shortly. In the meantime, have a look at some of the material from the concert in Tromsø, which forms the basis of the album

This is so damn good.

Must hear the first song NOW.

It's streaming

I thought this was going to be more background listen material but works just fine on standalone listens as well.

Another Ulver record, and another one I think to myself "Hey, this sounds ok. Some nice moments here and there but ultimately pretty disjointed. I think I'll go listen to Deaf Center now." I just don't think Ulver have it in them to make a purely cohesive record that sounds like a whole rather than cobbled together parts.

Nice album, more of the same. it has some cool high parts (Son of Man). This just sounds like a really cool movie soundtrack. Ulver could do a good soundtrack for a big budget movie, if anyone would let them. they could make $$$

Ahhh, the ending of the first track is so damn amazing. I'm addicted.

Seconded.
