Melody and Brutality
It has melody and clear haunting vocals along with the rough black metal that came in the next album. This is one of the best black metal albums of all time. It also has a story to it. It's a gem that shouldn't be missed by anyone who is interested in something different. Growing up in Michigan, the soundscapes of bleak winter and pagan majesty really hit home for me. The first time I heard this album I loved it and still do to this day. If you haven't listened yet or are turned off by the strange turns Ulver took in this decade then go back to Bergtatt to see what they were like when they first started.


GOD LIKE DEBUT ALBUM

Folk and Black Fusion's Magnum Opus
This gave the genre known as black metal a new makeover and proved that by bending a few rules and drawing many influences, you can create a masterpiece. Bergtatt is such an incredible album and one of Ulver's best achievements. The production is raw, but it's not the borderline white noise or bedroom quality recordings expected from many bands of the genre. It's an album full of beautiful folk-laden melodies, black metal intensity, and some of the strongest songwriting that the genre will ever produce. The atmosphere produced by all of this makes it easy to just relax and enjoy the brilliant telltale masterpiece Ulver created. Nothing can ever compare to this, it's a breathtaking odyssey that is definitely worth your time. .


beautiful
a true beauty, very rough dark black metal with beautiful ambient slow melodic passages. this is one of the best black metal albums of all time. simply genius. Ulver should go back to this era again. if you are into black metal. . . this album is a MUST!!!!!.


I don't see the point
honestly, for the life of me, I don't get what all the hype about Ulver is. . I love black metal, and these guys are almost put up like a litmus test of "tr00-ness". *yawn* No thanks. . . give me Immortal or Marduk any day. If I want atmospheric qualities to my black metal, Emperor or Dimmu Borgir fit the bill nicely.

Ulver is just. . . I dunno, it doesn't SUCK, it's just. . . **shrug**.
