  • I love this version by Ulver !!!!!

  • best new generation Ulver album

  • very well done vid, it's pretty cool

  • moj boszee gdybym tylko wiedzial ze tak sie to skonczy

  • i prefer the Cathedral cover, while this is a good one

  • nothing can please me

  • Nice cover. One of my favorite Sabbath songs.

  • Cathedral also makes an amazing cover of this song.

  • this is the best Sabbath cover I've ever heard!!!! Being a huge Sabbath fan I'm very critical and I get bored of all the doom bands covering them. This is fresh and exciting and it takes the song out of its natural habitat without it losing its soul.

  • @carlbags666

    ever heard "war pigs" performed by Cake? ;-)

  • @alfonsovolpe1976

    I have now! wow thats awesome cheers for that :)

  • I wonder if they will ever do a cover of Black Sabbath's Planet Caravan......

  • @VikingLady219 Pantera made it and it's also unearthly

  • @sledz9 I heard that one. But I think Garm would have much better vocals than Phil Anselmo on Planet Caravan.

  • thanks satan for ULVER

  • Utterly tremendous cover.

  • amazing how the color of the albums changes so slowly.

  • all i can think is mournful the master known simply as ULVER conduct so much emotion through there song it's amazing weather not there even singing

  • Excellent song, excellent band.

    Not as good as the original, of course (Black Sabbath rules !^^)... and not their best album too (their best is "Blood Inside" according to me... far better than this one, which is "only" a good album)

  • I like their old and new.

  • @ishafoxyfox Me too, but I like their calmer stuff more, do you know which albums are more ambient stuff like this so I can get to the Ulver I am in the mood for quicker? xD

  • @tridentdc24 This album, the Svidd Neger soundtrack, and Lykantropen Themes. You can't go wrong with any of their albums really.

  • :(

    

  • they took the song to the next level how impossible that would seem...

  • This song makes all the hair I have stand on end.

  • It's going to suck coming back down to earth when this song's over

  • Its a Guzerat cow in the cover of the album ! Very interesting animal.

  • From black metal to experimental/eletronic/avant-g­arde. And it still is awesome. Incredible.

  • @adr1ew you mean....from black metal to cover songs lol

  • ctm! ♥

  • what a great choice of a cover. it totally suits the atmosphere of the album.

  • this is so good ... thanks ulver!!!!!!!

  • i like falling asleep listening to this album and perdition city. you can't do that with their bm albums.

  • @Kriticool1 I take that as a challenge. Falling asleep while listening to Ulver's bm production... The game's on.

  • @Kriticool1 Bergtatt is fuckin relaxing bro ..

  • @Kriticool1 I've fallen asleep listening to bergtatt.. being in such a dazed state of mind helps take you far away from where you are and into an entirely different world. Not the same as where you find yourself with Shadows and Perdition City, just as a good an experience, though.

  • It's rare that a cover, some what different from the original is almost better.

  • better then the original

  • It's a black sabbath cover

  • @j4allen

    And a great one too

  • is the beginning a citation of bob dylan? (from the song "with god on our side")

    anyway,

    goooood song

  • @WandaThePanda it's a cover of Black Sabbath's song - same title. dont know about Bob Dylan...

  • I lovbe the way the sax goes I mean the flute of the original is astonishing but sax gets you in the deeps of the sadness

  • @SamaelVonFrost It's a trumpet, bro ;)

  • love this piece...

  • Comment removed

  • Very calming

  • Every time I look at this cover art, I'm scared.... Holy COW!!!

  • @CannibaLouiST .... the cow and the horns represent the devil !!!

    and if u know the sunset within the devils horns means bad things !!

  • My name it means nothing My fortune is less My future is shrouded in dark wilderness Sunshine is far away, clouds linger on Everything I possess, now they are gone Oh where can I go to and what can I do? Nothing can please me only thoughts are of you You just laughed when I begged you to stay I've not stopped crying since you went away The world is a lonely place you're on your own Guess I will go home sit down and moan Crying and thinking is all that I do, Memories I have remind me of you
  • just beautifoul...THIS is music...

  • beautiful

  • guacho q buen tema or diossss a por cierto como todos los comentarios tan en ingles q la mamen todos mother fucker q buen cover espero respuesta manga de gatos como c q no entienden lo qdigo jjajaja

  • @sephirat1989 HAHAHA MANGA DE GATOS, PERO TU NO ENTIENDES EL INGLES...IDIOT!

  • So unique, a great reason to always be different, try something new, and learn not to always conform with others! :)

  • Denne sang er så sigende, smuk og unik! Den fortæller en historie, som man kun kan relatere til...

  • So fucking drunk and this song tells me of how much much i done FUCKED up.

  • @thejigsawmurdersyou lol, awesome.

  • I prefer their black metal work.

  • this song marks me think of planet caravan by black sabbath. i fucking love Ulver \m/

  • @GoingToSatansPlace

    That's most likely because this is a Black Sabbath song. Obviously.

  • Damn , this is rad...am just now becoming a big fan. The more I hear their old stuff. I really love it.

  • DRUGS IN AUDITARY FORM

  • @666Marduk999 Hey dude I think I saw u on another video before but I forgot witch I think it was a Marduk video.

  • Sounds like leonard cohen at first

  • you know, there are two types of music. one that makes you trip and one that doesnt. i would rather trip on this than have sex.

  • @TRBNGR666 Actually you have used the wrong word here. Fag is a slang for a homosexual male. Homosexual means that you are drawn to your own sex. Some people prefer other thing than sex. To fully take distance from sex is called living in celibacy. Was this the word you were looking for little fellow? I know it may not sound very insulting, but add a "fucking" or two at the beginning and it should sound alright.

  • @SneakyOstrich lol. my comment was completely toungue and cheek btw. If my guy friends ever come to me talking about how much they like some girl orwahtever ..they get the same one word...Ogre from REvenge of the Nerds type reponse lol.

  • @destinyandyou - I'd rather have sex to this music.

  • @vodkaliquid and i have sex and trip to this music at the same time.

  • My favourite cover of one of my most beloved songs. I feel lucky to have caught Ulver a couple of months ago. Very blessed.

  • Omg, instantly falling in love with this the very first time I hear it!

  • same here!!!!!!!

  • Cathedral has a nice version too!

  • thanx god Garm exists !

  • wow <3

  • this is just 'garm' and the way, his music sounds

  • what genre is this band?

  • black metal / trance old, avant garde electronica now

  • Better than original. Magnificent!

  • NO FUCKING WAY!

  • excellent spin on this cover, Cathedral also does a kick ass version and it has Flute

  • this cover is beautiful

  • i would have thought they'd have changed to industrial music since that is harsh like black metal but this also very good

  • I love black sabbath.

  • Ulver is a very sophisticate band, I specially like bands that start playing one style and keep evolving, like Current 93 and Death in June. I really like this album, and this is a very solid cover of Sabbath's original, I really like all the little touches.

  • i see them live on brutal assault, it was really awesome, i stay before the stage with opened mouth...it was appearance from other planet =p

  • I envy you,I hope I will see them live

  • Přesně :)

  • Dammit I always wanted to cover this song!!! At least one of my favorite bands beat me to it...

  • I'll be there on Friday in London. Can't wait to see this emotional powerhouse live.

  • Impeccable...I quite enjoyed this piece. Just discovered the band and I'm already a fan. It's exquisite.

  • Ulver is just one of those bands that have had a flawless streak of music, which is remarkable for the amount of genres they've been associated with. Needless to say, Shadows of the Sun is just unbelievably beautiful, and unlike anything they've ever done before. True musicians, no doubt about it.

  • the original is still the best

  • This is beautiful..I love the whole record of course, but there´s something in this that makes me like it abit more. :)

  • Ulver are the REAL MUSICIANS!

    a very good cd

    with intense tracks!

    THIS IS MUSIC,THIS IS EMOTION!

  • WTH ist his?! I know Ulver from Nattens Madrigal and Bergtatt. Why did they change their sound so extremely?

  • They're true musicians bro.

    Exploring different genres is what true musicians do.

  • Yes.

  • The change has started earlier with Perdition City and Blood Inside albums, but I guess whit this record they reach some higher levels. The old folk influented black metal stuff was great but there are many bands in Noth-Europe play folk inspirated black metal. However the nowday Ulver is completely different from anything else. Garm and his bandmates made something amazing and matchless.

  • Don't forget Marriage of Heaven and Hell where they first started experimenting. Although they didn't let go of metal completely on that one...

  • three words. "because they can"

  • the song speaks for it self.black sabbath's text is damn good. but imo garm does this song better. IMO

  • Garm could do any song and make it amazing. Hell, he could turn a Vanilla Ice song into a masterpiece.

  • Sweet color fade man, nice vid

  • cathedral version is the best imo. but its still geat

  • parece um pouco com Einstürzende Neubauten..

  • ulver are one of my favourite bands AMONG WITH faith no more , killing joke THEY ARE REAL ARTISTS that makes them UNIQUE i love ulver !!

  • por fortuna he escuchado ulver desde sus inicios.

  • In my opinion, this is Ulver's best album since Bergstatt.

  • Is there tabs for this for bass? Or guitar?

  • Ulver > Cathedral > Sabbath in my opinion. All are so dark and beautiful, though.

  • NO! xD

  • They got even better. :)

  • Yeah I completely agree. Ulver has had some good releases outside of the metal, but man, in Shadows of the Sun...

    Garm is one of my favorite vocalists for all his styles and pitches but in this album he's barely even trying.

  • 'Shadows of the Sun' are one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard in music. Listening to it is like laying on the empty opening in the mountain valley in the middle of the tranquil summer night below the starry sky and contemplating your life. Maybe Ulver had recorded better albums, maybe there are sort of similar releases but for me no other album relax and cleanse me as 'Shadows...' does. And that's why it is a masterpiece of art.

  • Each release has its own magic. Kveldssanger makes me dream of rainy autumn days, Bergtatt of Norways Fjords and Mountains, Nattens Madrigal triggers my more animalistic emotions, and this here..is like a fuckin deep meditation..

  • @Feuernebel exactly. you hit the nail right on the head there.

  • @zajebski That was amazingly well put.

  • @zajebski Wrong video.

  • i cant find words for this cover.. :P

  • Just so perfect...............

  • Nattens Madrigal is their best album.

  • No way! :p

  • I don't know who gave you a thumbs-down mexicanmetalhead, but I'm giving you one straight up! This cover's fine, but the Cathedral one IS excellent as well ... plus, it's Cathedral, man!

  • That's what I call an argument.

    I could also say: MAN THIS IS ULVER. -.-

    That doesn't automatically make it better.

    Well, I love the Cathedral cover. Great Band.

    But who would compare Ulver and Cathedral?

  • Whats Cathedral? :D

  • Probably the best cover I have ever heard. By any band, and of any band.

  • culdn't be more agree :D

  • At 2:19, that image fits so well with the lyrics at that time.

    One of the best songs ever made.

  • One of the best songs ever made.

  • love that brass instrument in the background, makes the song so special.

    Awesome!

  • man, the guy's voice is so powerful..I could listen to this song whole day long... perfection. great cover

  • Never heard of this group before, but that is one cool album cover.

  • I think it is a black metal band, if I'm not wrong.

    And I am pretty sure they are Norwegian

  • they were a black metal band.

    "bergtatt" and "nattens madrigal" are the only metal albums of the band.

  • A soulfull cover. Really brings forth the beauty of the original Sabbath song.

  • This is a good cover. This is one of the more original takes on this song I've heard.

    SABBATH!!!

  • This is very similar to Cathedral's cover (at least vocally). Sounds great :)

  • Definetly one of the best cover ever heard.

  • Great hornes....

  • Whether it's black/folk-metal, electro or art rock, or what ever their latest album is classified, Ulver is awesome

  • Couldn't agree more.

  • me too ;)

  • You gotta love the colours. Might have to get some pot....

  • d BOAA ESSSA MUSICA

  • I never thought they could create a better album than "Perdition City"...........at least they did!

    Impossible to tell in writing - incredible music!

    And a great cover indeed!

  • Damn this is awesome. I need to get me some Ulver.

  • wow, that was so beautiful; hurts me deep inside

    that gives me the creeps!

  • Awesome cover, but i regret that the beginning is cuted

  • love the deep vocals in this song! :)

  • Love this song...

  • Sublime.

  • è sempre bella

  • well... dont listen if make you sleep...
