Ulver (Norwegian for "wolves") is a Norwegian experimental electronica band founded in 1993, by vocalist Kristoffer Rygg.

However, following discord with the label, Kristoffer Rygg formed his own imprint, Jester Records, in 1998.

Her Nettwerk Records debut Magnetic (2017) marked a significant shift in Snow's catalog that American Songwriter heralded as "remarkable," and aptly compared to Emmylou Harris's Wrecking Ball.
