The small print under
Ulver's name reads: With
Tromsø Chamber Orchestra. That's important to note because it was Norway's
Tromsø Kulturhus who commissioned it, in cooperation with the
Arctic Opera and Philharmonic Orchestra. It's not just experimental Metal with occasional strings, it's a more organic blend of film-style orchestral work and dark ambient introspection that needs a quiet environment to be fully appreciated.
Garm adds vocals to only two of the six tracks, but the others aren't lessened by the absence.
Songs of Note:
Glamour box (ostinati);
Son of Man
4 dark nights of the soul out of 5
