Style: electronic pop
Primary Emotions/Themes: Essentially the same album as Julius Cesar but not nearly as good.
Thoughts: I never expected this. Ulver released the same album twice. Never in the history of the band have they released two albums back to back where they are the same genre. Never.
Is this album catchy? Yes, but it seems hollow. Is it groovy? Yes... but again the drums seem uninspired. Are the songs good? I really don't know.
There's something about Flowers of Evil that falls flat. The music feels uninspired, phoned in. Creating an album for the sake of making an album. This is where I really start to fall off with the band. This album started to show the cracks in their discography. The albums after this really have no interest for me and I ended up selling this album shortly after listening here. It's a damn shame, I hope the band gets their sense of adventure back... the musical world is lesser whenever Ulver does not create good music.
