there's actually a band called Genghis Tron? I'd be willing to listen to them just for the name, that's brilliant

Genghis Tron on myspace. They're amazing live.

Genghis tron-just checked them and they remind me a little of the MAD CAPSULE MARKETS-it's not bad, and I checked out ULVER wasn't impressed really.

Ulver is probably the single hardest band to get into simply because of how varied their material is. Bergtatt was more straight forward black metal while Kveldssanger is some acoustic folk (?) with really deep vocals. On the other hand Blood Inside is outright experimental stuff that almost reminds me of a crazy Tool/Coldplay hybrid or something (I'm honestly not sure if any description can do the album justice.). Definitely a band you need to take your time with.

Rage Against the Machine rules, end of story.

Agreed - Nattens Madrigal is quite inaccessible as well, even for a black metal album. But it kicks ass - the first song is probably one of my favourite black metal songs.

Ulver never releases the same album. Everything from folk to black metal to trip hop to post rock.

this has got me intrigued. as I have said I wasn't impressed by MELANCHOLY, but if they are releasing genre crossing stuff, then it may bring this album into focus a bit more. Will have to investigate.

one big reason might be that they did the credits music for The Matrix
