:: ::
:: Classic psychedelic tracks re-worked by Norwegian legends. ::
:: ::
:: Early pioneers of Norwegian black metal, Ulver have ::
:: continually evolved throughout their career and now stand ::
:: as living legends of the dark music industry, blending ::
:: rock, electronic, industrial and symphonic traditions along ::
:: with ambient soundscapes and experimental sounds to create ::
:: groundbreaking material. ::
:: ::
:: Last year they released the critically acclaimed Wars Of ::
:: The Roses album which was described by Zero Tolerance as 'a ::
:: beautiful record of startlingly powerful depth', and Mojo ::
:: magazine elaborated 'Ulver's genre-weaving musical noir ::
:: channels David Sylvian, the ghosts of Coil and Pink Floyd ::
:: in sumptuous melancholy mode.' ::
:: ::
:: They return with Childhood's End, a collection of classic - ::
:: mostly obscure - psychedelic tracks recorded by the band ::
:: over an extended period and a few different sessions; ::
:: starting in late 2008 and ending in late 2011, 'this is the ::
:: stuff that we sit at home and get stoked about' explains ::
:: Kristoffer Rygg in a recent Kscope video interview. ::
:: ::
:: He continues: 'I grew up with parents who were still ::
:: listening to music from the time, so it informed my ::
:: childhood, but it has became an ever increasing geeky sort ::
:: of fetish since then.' ::
:: ::
:: This passion for the Sixties' garage rock and psychedelia, ::
:: and the countless underground gems that remain unknown to ::
:: most, inspired the band to record their own interpretations ::
:: of some of their favourite songs from the era. 'My feeling ::
:: is that most people's knowledge sort of limits itself to ::
:: The Doors,' says Rygg, 'The Doors were cool, but there was ::
:: so much else going on... in the underground, records that ::
:: got lost and didn't get as much recognition as they ::
:: deserved in my opinion.' ::
:: ::
:: With this is in mind Ulver hope that Childhood's End will ::
:: introduce some of this music, and the artists who ::
:: originally recorded them, to people who previously might ::
:: not have experienced them, 'we wish to be ambassadors for ::
:: things that we love and we sort of hope that we can open ::
:: some gates with the record.' ::
:: ::
:: The album includes Ulver's unique versions of tracks from ::
:: The 13th Floor Elevators, Electric Prunes, Jefferson ::
:: Airplane, The Pretty Things along with more obscure choices ::
:: from Bonniwell's Music Machine, The United States of ::
:: America and more. ::
:: ::
:: Release Date 28th May 2012 ::
