not so alive anymore (thankfully)
Περιμένοντας τον ένα Μανώλη να γράψει επιτέλους για το live των Faust και ξέροντας ότι δεν μπορούμε να μείνουμε για πολύ μακριά από τις εμμονές μας (όσο και αν εκνευρίζει τον έτερο Μανώλη μερικές φορές), παραθέτουμε κάποια νέα από τις studio (επιτέλους) περιπέτειες των Νορβηγών που συμπαθούμε περισσότερο από τους υπόλοιπους:
«We are painfully aware of the passing since Shadows. It’s time to get another Ulver proper out, and we have started to write. Our own dark brand.
Subsidiarily: We have recorded some hippie songs, from the sixties, bands like The 13th Floor Elevators, Byrds, Jefferson Airplane and stranger Aquarian folks. We aim to make this into a full album, a kind of Ulver kicking against the pricks. We’ll put up a rough mix of our take at I had too much to dream last night, next week.
There is also a collaboration with Sunn O))). We had a terrific tracking session with the Nazgûls after their appearance at the Øya festival well over a year ago. We spent a month or so editing the material and adding our sheen to the sound. Since then it has unfortunately been lying dormant due to difficulties getting everyone together. We hope to join forces and finish the thing this spring. It is becoming a ghost.
Although being little more than an intro, you might want to check out Another brick in the wall part I, which we recorded for the latest Mojo magazine and their Pink Floyd special, celebrating the 30th anniversary of The Wall.»
