This is a strictly stereo album. |
I don't even own a stereo! All I have is a personal player. I don't think the album is as raw as say, Wrath Of The Tyrant era Emperor though. |
What are you on about? WOTT is Linkin Park production compared to Nattens Madrigal. |

I still say WOTT has worse sound quality, even if it is less abrasive. |

| I listened to a song from this on MySpace through my computer on iPod headphones. My head almost ruptured but it was awesome. |

| i don't see how this album has bad production, sure it's harsh and abrasive as fuck but I think that's exactly how the band wanted it to be. |

| Well, I'd say this is as perfect as straight up, pure black metal with no synths or acoustic interludes (well, one) gets. |

| I would love to listen to this album but with headphones it's unbearable at anything but the lowest volumes. I don't own speakers. |

| I also have trouble listening to this on headphones - it's a little painful unless I'm in the right mood. I can't imagine what it'd be like with earbuds... |

| I have in-ear headphones from Sennheiser. I did listen to the first song and it was amazing, though. |

Well, Sennheiser tends to make great headphones so it's not surprising that Nattens Madrigal sounded good even with earbuds from them. I was picturing something more along the lines of 5 dollar earbuds you buy in Walmart or something. |

| Just heard this now, amazing album, not to mention raw as fuck. I'll check out the older albums ASAP cause I love the BM/folk style in the vein of old Satyricon. |

| This album is awe-inspiring beyond belief. I was just listening to it a couple of weeks ago with high quality headphones. An absolutely fantastic experience! |

| Ulver's newer stuff is dogshit. But the first three albums are awe inspiring. Bergtatt and to a lesser extent this album are incredible. |

Ulver's Avant-Garde/Electronic period is without a doubt as brilliant as their BM-era, period. I won't say you are completely closed-minded but saying Ulver's new era is "shit" is just simply absurd. |

The new stuff is without a doubt very well done music, but I prefer their Black Metal days. |

Ulver is just a remarkable and extraordinary band, no matter how one perceives them. |
