Which cd did you just buy?

Miolo: Terminal spirit disease RUUUUUUUUUUULES!!! definitely this & Slaughter are the two best ATG!!!

:headbang: (this smilie is horrible,btw :yuk: )

okie,let's go for a quick ulver-class....

Lesson1:The essence of ulver is the constant (recently not so constant though) change of style.... :D

Lesson2: Ulver non-metal albums,listenable by metalheads ;)
After Bergatt they released "Kveldssanger",a very beautiful short in duration album. It's very acoustic and relaxing supersuitable for hours late at night :) (i'm listening to it right now).... The vocals are clean and very melodic...in some songs it feels like his voice is leading the whole thing....there is even one song where he sings A Capella, which is quite funny ( :devil: ),since the whole song is just garm singing "aaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaa" etc in various tones.... The music is mainly played by accoustic/classic guitars (i don't know exactly) and in some songs by strange flute-like organs.... It's quite a romantic album :)

After nattens madrigal ULver released the album that shocked many people,since nobody expected that a BM-orgie could be followed by sth that very little had to do with metal-if anything at all- and which somehow revealed their intention of taking more electronic paths.......
Soooooo,"Themes from William Blake's:The marriage of heaven and hell" to its biggest part electronic...Of course don't expect techno shit.No way.It's electronic music,quite listenable,not only because the music is quite varied, but especially because the whole thing is somehow covered by Garm's (phantastic) voice and also because there are some tracks which are very etherial and relaxing and also a part where a quite hard quitar makes its appearance...
Btw,in the last track there is a part where Samoth,Ishahn and Fenriz read some lines of the poem!!! I don't know i'm very hooked on this album...i would definitely give it 10/10,but then again it has technically nothing to do with metal and make you will find it uninteresting... Give it a try if you feel like experimenting...
If i recall correctly,Villain also like it a lot (cheers :) )

These 2 i consider the ones you should check after Bergtatt and Nattens... when i'll have a bit of more time i'll post a few thoughts about the dangerous Ulver albums...

Btw, i think in http://ulver.cjb.net you will find some ulver samples...

~troll~ (pratkvarn)
 
Sounds pretty much like the kind of music I am into right now... I mean The Kovenant is pretty much a lot of electronic stuff... Agathodaimon's latest is pretty much the most romantic (if in a melancholic, no pun way) album I have ever heard and well then there is Borknagar, Virgin Black, Satyricon, RA and so on...
I will definetly check out the sound samples, but I think I will order something as well, when I have the other stuff here hahahah

Now, can anyone tell me of Troll??

Yes, your memory is correct, troll - I like Marriage of Heaven and Hell a lot, although it took me quite some time to get into it. And I still like Kveldssanger even more!

-Villain (NP: Haggard - And Thou Shalt Trust... The Seer - "A Midnight Gathering" )
 
I just bought the following records:

Wishmaster disappointed me when it was released, guess I was a bit overhyped after Oceanborn. Still a fine album though.
Masterplan is awesome! It's on the way in the mail, so far I've survived by listening to a friend's copy but I need it in my grubby hands for myself. My own...

NP: Kamelot - The Fourth Legacy

Wishmaster was the first Nightwish album I ever heard. It stuck to my mind faster than you can say "goomba".:D

Saw Masterplan live when I went to see HammerFall. I thought Masterplan were a bit too "technical" and probably better on album than live. I downloaded a couple of songs and got my suspicions confirmed. :D
 
Albums i bought in the past month:

Marillion - Seasons end
Dream Theater - Images & words
Rush - Hemispheres
Into Eternity - Dead or Dreaming
Agalloch - The mantle
Opeth - My arms you hearse
Opeth - Blackwater park
Opeth - Morningrise
