Started out in the 90's as a bunch of Norwegian teenagers making their own idiosyncratic brand of black metal, they've been following their own path ever since - moving through different brands of metal, through trip hop, through electronica, through jazz, through new age, all kinds really ...Incredibly diverse band. They've been sticking with a type of dark synth pop for the last couple of albums, including their new one, Flowers of Evil. I like what I hear so far. Maybe the songs aren't the hookiest, but they build cool atmospheres in these songs. I love the final two minutes of this song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CP-UeKH6mhg Any love for them in here? I could ask the metal heads in the other forum, but Ulver haven't been metal for over twenty years.

Shadows of the Sun and Perdition City, would be the ones I keep going back to. Speaking of doom metal, although definitely hitting more of a post metal vibe, I've absolutely being loving A Dawn to Fear by Cult of Luna for the last few months. I think it came out last year or the year before, but it's stellar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XoFJA24GhfA

Been a big fan, sound is always evolving, he keeps churning out high quality releases on a regular schedule. Pretty amazing for a one man operation. Loving the return to the heavy stuff..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgzfXCkcKYM

Everything Everything just released RE-ANIMATOR https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbQBsTfDcts Here's my favourite track. The melody really reminds me of The Distance by Cake, possibly just a coincidence but I am ready to tackle just about anything thrown at me since listening to this album twice in its entirety this evening. I didn't think I had it in me anymore to feel this many emotions at one time. My winter is absolutely made, this is terrific.
