Svidd neger (soundtrack)

from Ambassaden, Oslo, and Norsk Film, Bærum, Norway, recorded between September 2002 and April 2003.

Stated on the sleeve: “Music for and Inspired by Svidd neger as perceived by Ulver.

The songs are lush and dense, generally laidback but sinister, at times more musical and orchestral, while other elements are more minimal and atmospheric.

[1] Writing for SputnikMusic, Tyler Munro, rated the soundtrack 4.5/5, commenting, “Very few albums craft themselves as experiences.

The movie is filled with racial epithets, axe-murders, alcoholic servants of god and some hardcore farming action, it's quite surprising to say that the soundtrack is absolutely beautiful.”[2] John Chedsey, writing for webzine Satan Stole My Teddybear, comments, “Ulver sheds the constant sense of anxiety of Perdition City for an experience that is far more subliminal and alluring.
