i remember reading a description of this band and thinking i was going to hate it but actually liked the sample mp3, bought it and was really impressed. combining depressing pop and more black-metallish moments it creates a very neurotic sound. strangely upbeat but with a depressing feel at the same time.

the cure is obviously a big influence and most likely, woods of infinity as well.

the guy in stallagh obviously is insane. they wanted to limit their next 7" to 100 copies but the minimum amount the pressing company were willing to make was 250, so they're just going to destroy 150 perfectly good EP's. or more likely, they'll say its limited to 100 and sell all 250.

Id be willing to bet its the later, considering its popped up at a few select distros.

Whenever I hear to Nuit Noire this image comes to my mind in which I see The Beatles playing Black Metal. lol

I have only heard the song that Lifelover has available at their website. Outside of that, the rest stays unknown for me. I liked the way the keyboards are used at the beginning of the song, not organ driven as other Black Metal bands. Additionally I liked the desperate vocals in the mix.

A grim advice: do not open their official website at the University for you can get in trouble.

They didn't catch me so they didn't tell me anything. Yet, once they approached me just because I was looking at a pic where Aragorn was kissing Arwen with the thought that I was watching pornography or something so go figure.

Well, when you open their website the first thing you see is a girl of no more than 14 naked and covered in blood... if you open that shit at school or something I guess you could be in problems... by the way, no need to tell you that I was being ironic, to avoid misanderstoods....

I doubt that shes a minor, but even if she is, that is not pedophilia.

I checked this band out because of this thread, and I gotta say... it was the biggest disappointment ever. Only good thing about the band is the artwork of Pulver, but for the rest it is just shite IMO. But like someone said, they gotta release it on 12" vinyl with an A1 poster, hahahaha

what distros did you see this EP in? i ask because i can't find it on google (mainly because i don'tknow what the new EP is actually called)


EDIT: on a side note, second lifelover album, entitled 'erotik' coming soon.

I have had this album for about two weeks now, and I can only say I absolutely love it. It is just damn awesome.

By the way, am I the only one who freaked out insanely when I first heard that whistling in song 7 (I think). Or are there more?

Hah, I love the whistling part. I also like at the end of Nackskott when it plays what sounds like some childrens song.

@Zombie, M.D.

Yeah, great stuff. Also the male vocals on song 4 or 5, so warm. And there is an amazing scream in I think song 3. Damn, why can't I remember those names.

Anyone got the new release already? I'm afraid I'll have to wait till next month, since I don't have the financial back-ups. Damn. I just had to get that Shining.

Anyway, would love to hear some opinions.

I downloaded Erotik one week ago and I have to say it's a better release than Pulver, an album that I loved at first but became old rather soon... Erotik is somehow a more "mature" album, with betterly (I hope that word exists) structured melodies, good riffs and more conventional vocals. The fucked-off Bethlehem-like scream is gone, and now they do a classic mix between clean voice and black metal growling here and there... I would understand if Pulver fans feel dissapointed with Erotik, I found it just better.
