about

The bittersweet romantic dungeon synth of Ulk is a bastion of tranquility in a changing world. Restrained melancholic melodies and a serene elegant production welcomes the listener to a self-contained introspective soundscape.

Following 'I + II' (GON033) and 'This Divine Shelter' (GON055), 'Shellbound' is the third album in as many years from this Dutch project. It is distinguished from the previous releases by occasionally manifesting more brooding atmospheres and a slightly more dramatic expression.

A dreamy, beguiling, nostalgic dungeon synth quest through the shires. But, it's so much more than that. The LP incorporates some unique key changes, field recordings and a lot of Mort Garson style synth work. It sometimes reminds me of old 70's PG horror soundtracks. The record is addictive melancholy inspiration. The ideal music for accompanying the dawning morning of an epic adventure. brantly

My favorite out of the three I believe.The sound is more aggressive and fits the cover art of what looks like a perilous journey for the protagonist. Fits well at being the second in the trilogy of albums. Every song is good and the cassette tape and package is of good quality. A Great buy that deserves a vinyl edition. Joshua Laleina
