| Another fantastic addition to the Icelandic BM scene, and despite the band having members like DG (of misthyrming, skaphe, and others) the band takes on an entirely different sound than the majority of icelandic BM right now. A nice change of pace. |

This would have been even better were Brodsky on every track. The lack of a second guitar
for some of the songs leads to Ballou playing a greatest hits of the guitar parts and it
sounds "off" in a way, as it is much different than the album sound, sometimes (though this
has been the case since 2001). The record sounds amazing though, really well recorded and
mastered. Great musicians playing a perfect record. |

| pagan/viking metal without the cheesy triumphant sounding cleans that a lot of bands in the subgenre use. music is a slower tempo than a lot of what i've heard. genuinely great album and really beautiful as well. fun listen. |

| While certainly a spiritual successor to Assassination, Ulver give us a different take on the genre. In my opinion, none of these songs would have fit on their previous studio effort. Flowers of Evil takes on a different tone, one that does not reach the highs of Assassination, but is a solid addition to Ulver's substantial discography. The singles are probably the strongest tracks here, but Machine Guns and Peacock Feathers, Apocalypse 1993, Hour of the Wolf, and Nostalgia are not too far behind. A Thousand Cuts is a pleasant closer, while One Last Dance is most certainly the weakest track on the album. Overall, an great-to-excellent album upon repeated listens, but one that is on the weaker end of Ulver's near-spotless list of LPs. |
