Ulver have issued a track titled “Hollywood Babylon“. It’s the latest in a planned string of singles from the Norwegian black metal turned ambient experimentalist outfit. Current plans have this ongoing collection of tracks eventually being released as a collective album. The group commented of this newest addition to their arsenal:
“Boom! ‘Hollywood Babylon‘, yet another funky fresh single, stealing themes and things from the (very, very mad) world we live in – pop and politics – as well as the best kept secret of Norway, King Midas. The title is obviously lifted from legendary punkers Misfits, NOT Kenneth Anger. And again, the words were written before recent events. We are still disturbed, but not surprised, by the violence and the division and despair. That’s all folks. Until next, Ulver xx”
