maxlphillips This feels like being forced to listen to the album of the year through a thin, muffling film. The compositional beauty is consistently and pervasively mind-blowing – never letting go of my ever-pleased attention – but the recording quality almost castrates it. Despite that, I came out of this thoroughly harrowed; unrelentingly pummelled with gorgeousness to the point of complete cleansing and reinvigoration. Favorite track: Ghost Eyes in the Fire Light.

Aimfri I'm not crying, you're crying! Favorite track: A Culture of Wilderness.

Joni Korpi Some damn good catharsis in here. Favorite track: Woodland Caribou.

neel1988 Beautiful collaboration! Immersive experience from start to end.. Favorite track: Eternal return.

Nocturnal Egg (Jordan) Ulver a récemment prouvé qu'il détenait les clefs du paradis et qu'il voyait dans le royaume des morts ; Sunn O))) a passé sa carrière à nous faire redouter les monstres célestes et les ténèbres abyssales. En un mot, ils sont passés maîtres dans l'art de l'ésotérisme. Dans Terrestrials, ils sortent ainsi de leur registre : on sent la chaleur du soleil et du désert, on entend les moustiques qui nous harcèlent et les rituels. C'est viscéral et magnifique — "Eternal return" est un bijou à lui seul. Favorite track: Eternal return.

Dante Ruivo Love this collaboration Favorite track: Eternal return.

rasmodeus Such a good album. It's synthy and dark and seems to have an overall theme about loss and change, I just wish I had known of them earlier. Favorite track: Southern Gothic.

palehorse666 one wouldn't expect "grand" or "epic" to be synonymous with synthpop, but this is as much of the grandest scope and a sweeping epic as an album of this genre could be. with commercialism also comes solid production, catchy melodies, dark themes, and lyrical depth. Ulver is a group I need to delve deeper into, but this is an incredibly good start. Favorite track: Southern Gothic.

RJ Has there been a band with such a fantastic musical voyage as Ulver? A truly dynamic release in an already stellar catalogue. Dark synth pop for the masses with historical influences. Highly, highly recommended. 9/10 Favorite track: So Falls the World.

neel1988 An epic journey through a plethora of drones but never losing rhythm. A mesmerizing experience from start to end. Ulver have shown that they can do drone well and have crafted beautiful waves of this sonic art. Favorite track: Blood, Fire, Woods, Diamonds.

Nocturnal Egg (Jordan) Avez-vous déjà vécu cette question ? Celle — tandis qu'une œuvre vous emporte si loin au point que vous en perdez pied — où vous demandez : Comment pourrais-je revenir où j'en étais ? Vous étiez, dans le monde, et vous y êtes toujours, et pourtant, une partie de vous-même voyage au-delà... Drone Activity, c'est ça. Cette observation peut faire passer cet album pour un risque, un danger, mais il n'en est rien. C'est une vision du paradis.

Malgré tout... avez-vous déjà vécu cette question ? Favorite track: Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea.

georgi_bonchev Awesome band with such a great diversity of albums!

rasmodeus I can't stop playing music from this album, every track feels fresh the next time I hear it, there's always something new. Favorite track: Nostalgia.

LLK No one manages to revive the 80s dark pop melancholy and make it so fresh and contemporary like Ulver. Apocalyptic lyrics never sounded dancier. Favorite track: Machine Guns and Peacock Feathers.

Luca If two lie down together they will keep warm, but how can one keep warm alone?
