When the oceans rise - General Chat Thread

I was at the Inferno Festival in Oslo two weeks ago. Lots of great shows, including a very intimate Wardruna concert in a viking ship museum. Good times had by all.

Sounds awesome. Wish I could have gone to that D:

New video from Cornelius:

 

[SiMuLaCrUm]

Maybe, give it a try. It's some pretty good stuff.

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

Negative.

In a semi-related comment: The new Eminem CD was pretty badass.

Indeed. I hope he's gonna tour again, cause I was gonna see him in 2005 but it got cancelled!

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

His shock factor and comedic value have been run into the ground, he isn't doing anything new and more importantly his beats are weak.

 

[SiMuLaCrUm]

Hm, didn't realize Eminem was still in the game... then again, I don't follow rap...

Dave playing a little of a new Borknagar song.

Man, that's pretty good. I have to say I like Asgeir's drumming a bit better though.
But this is a good enough replacement.
Can't wait to hear what it all sounds like together.

Older Eminem was good, but I'm skeptical of buying a new album of his, same with Xzibit.

 

[SiMuLaCrUm]

Heh, I have my ways . Just from seeing what I have seen so far.

Great video, thanks a lot!

The drums at first sounded a bit like Empiricism hehe. I really like Dave's playing, I think that he's a better drummer than Asgeir to be honest.

I wouldn't say he is better than Asgeir. He is good enough to fill Asgeir's shoes, but I hope he doesn't try to play like Asgeir, I wanna hear something different (yet brutal and progressive at the same time) from him.

What I really expect from Dave is some hellish speed, it can be done on blastbeasts, on double bass drums (not like the ridiculous speed from Dimmu's The Chosen Legacy btw), etx but I hope to hear some fast stuff on the new album.

Well, I found this clip from the song "Funebre" (by Ulver), taken from the show they did this Saturday at Maihaugsalen, Lillehammer. The quality is not good, though, but you can actually catch a bit of their performance. And hell I wish I was there.

That's more or less what I meant.

A Norwegian newspaper gave the show a 4/6. I think it was mentioned that the band liked playing live and they might well do it again.

 

[SiMuLaCrUm]

I thought Garm disliked playing live... He never did with Borknagar or Arcturus, in fact I've heard he refused to.

 

[Azzor1911]

he played live in New York in september 2007 for the Shadows of the Sun release party. and I believe (correct me if I'm wrong) he played a few shows with a band called Æthenor last year.


Really hoping that Ulver will play some more shows closer to home.

 

[SiMuLaCrUm]

Ah ok.

Yea, I'd like to see Ulver live sometime.
