A Nod to (Blood Inside Era) Ulver

I: In July 2004, Ulver finished recording Blood Inside, which was released on June 6th, 2005. With Blood Inside, the band stepped away from the more minimal styles they had been experimenting with previously. Bringing back more traditional rock instruments like guitar and acoustic drums (since 1998 the band had used primarily digital drums and/or sampled beats), and combining them with a whole slew of real and synthetic classical instruments, brass horns and sound samples, the band created something they had never done before. Managing to fuse genres ranging from rock, classical, minimalism, electronica and vintage prog with Garm's broad vocal range, Ulver created an album that was far beyond anything anyone has heard in the avantgarde scene.

II: Blood Inside captured so many moods and atmospheres that it was nearly impossible to review when given the opportunity to do so in 2005. The album mixes numerous genres intertwining complex ranges of sound and textures to amalgumate into an entirely organic yet synthetic result. Blood Inside simpley has to be experienced to be fully appreciated.
