25 years back we listened to this album at our D&D sessions a lot. After that time I lost contact to Ulver and their music. 5 years ago I went on a trip to norway and luckily discovered a "hidden" artist area with a concert hall and there was a poster for an Ulver concert coming up. To bad I left Oslo a few days before that concert. But with that discovery I started looking for what Ulver had made in the last years and I was absolut flashed by their music. Now I'm sitting here with my new born son and we're enjoying this album a lot. Me still and my son for his first time. Thank you Ulver!

I had the opposite experience. I am really into gothy 80's synth, electronica etc. And I got into Ulver via Assassination of Julius Cæsar. I started to look into them after listening to that album and was surprised to see they had black metal roots.

Can't get enough of this album, especially Kledt i Nattens Farger.

I can recall coming across Ulver since I was a child (10-12) Bergatt, Kveldssanger, Nattens Madrigal (original 3 albums) were always my favorite! They all bring back so many memories, how time has flown.... Pure love and respect for Garm!

This album taught me how to play a proper guitar. I actually had this on CD, listened to it on my discman while playing along on my guitar.

This record brings back a lot of feelings. I used to listen to it in a time in which my health was at an all time low. And a serious relationship with someone I really loved was ending. It was a rough time. Now I am much better and I realize how much I have grown. It is beautiful how certain music can bring back feelings such as these ones and give peace and closure. Cheers everyone! Especially the ones that are on a bad path. Look up because things do get better.

Just came back to this beauty, after many years. I fell in love with this record back in 1995, and it still sounds as brilliant 25 years later. Fantastic!

A from start to finish flawless piece of sonic art

Très poétique...

gran aporte, obra magna del folclore y black metal, en este disco totalmente acustico y con una hermosisima atmosfera, ulver encarna ese espiritu y coneccion que tenemos muy a dentro nuestro con el universo y los arquetipos que todos percibimos o sentimos si saber que son o como describirlos, saludos desde puerto aysen chile abrazo.

Just got it on vinyl! I love ulver

NATTENS MADRIGAL resonates to the core with whatever I have in that place in where a soul should be, but this is just too beautiful to ignore.

Soul comforting music.

When I heard "Capitel IV: Een Stemme Locker" on Bergtatt, I never thought that out of all the five songs that have a mixture of atmospheric folk music and black metal, that song broke away into a simple dark folk song. Now this album has expanded even more of what it represents beautifully.
