Ulver

Ulver (Norwegian for ?Wolves?) is a musical ensemble from Norway who started out making folk-inspired black metal music, gradually moving to neo-classical folk and finally the avant-garde, experimental music they currently make. Ulver are considered vastly influential in the emerging genre of post-black metal.

Ulver's music on their first album, Bergtatt, is considered folk-inspired black metal for its fast tempo, dry electric guitar sound and unnatural screaming vocals, mixed with acoustic passages and a fantasy storyline. Kristoffer "Garm" Rygg, the band's main contributor, has since said that he considered Bergtatt to be a "very traditional black metal album." This quote was taken from an interview with the band which can be found on the Lyckantropen Themes DVD (2002).
