Shadows of the Sun is the seventh studio album by the Norwegian experimental electronica band Ulver. Produced by Ulver, the album was issued in October 2007 via Jester Records and The End Records.[2][3] Officially announced on 13 July 2007,[2] Shadows of the Sun received critical acclaim on release,[4][5] and was described as "dark and tragic", with "soothing electronics and natural percussion". The album features contributions from Pamelia Kurstin on theremin, Mathias Eick on trumpet, and Austrian white noise musician Christian Fennesz adding electronics (described as "supplemental shimmer") and helping Ulver to correspond with their vision on the final product.[3]
