About the album
In the midst of the forest, the floor is littered with monstrous heads and mythical figures, frozen in torturous combat or threatened by wild beasts. A dragon fights a dog and a wolf. A lion sinks its teeth into the fire-breathing monster’s chest. This sacred grove, near Bomarzo in Lazio, Italy, reveals the nightmare vision of Vicino Orsini, a sixteenth-century nobleman. It’s a forest of symbols, suggesting a civilization overrun by the beasts, demons, and monsters of the primordial world. Soon after Orsini’s death, trees began to close in on these many peculiar beings, and green moss would eventually seize them. Slowly, nature finished what he had started.
"Flowers of Evil", the new studio album from Ulver, finds the wolf pack exploring the fear and wonder of mankind’s fall from redemption. Visions similar to those of Orsini come to mind as untamed life abounds: "THEY SPREAD TWIST AND TURN IN THE KILLING FIELDS." The threads of haunted places and images entwine; have Ulver discovered new pastures under the sun? Or scoured the ruins of their own moonlit past? The truth is they’re closer to their previous purlieu than perhaps ever before. "Doom dance," someone dubbed their last studio album The Assassination of Julius Caesar, critically acclaimed and Impala Award-winning (2017). "Flowers of Evil" reveals a band moving deeper into beats and grooves, hooks and choruses yet sounding more stripped back.
