Ulver - Kveldssanger
A huge deviation from their black metal albums, Ulver puts out a genuinely beautiful neofolk album. This thing is a combination of these beautiful acoustic guitar compositions and gorgeous singing performed by a choir of men singing full throated. There’s a few other instruments that come and go from pianos to violins. The overall feeling of the record is that of a medieval fantasy, a mixture of eerieness and beauty.

Listen here:
“I wrote it in the first moments of falling for someone, in that period when time feels expansive and golden and everything is easy and clear. Like the world has come alive with possibility,” shares the Dublin, Ireland-based singer/songwriter. “It feels like the golden hour, where everything looks and feels vibrant and you see beauty everywhere. Where you feel secure and loved and seen for who you are.”
Throughout "Sweet and Strong," Deidre showcases her exceptional musicianship, skillfully blending traditional folk elements with modern sensibilities.
