Borknagar is a progressive metal band from Bergen, Norway founded in 1995 by Øystein Garnes Brun. The band’s style combines folk metal and black metal with progressive and melodic elements. Borknagar’s lyrics often deal with philosophy, paganism, nature, and the cosmos. The name Borknagar is an anagram of “Ragnarok”, with a B thrown in to make it pronounceable (however, Øystein Brun stated once that the name was inspired by a Scottish myth about a man who climbed Loch Nagar, a mountain in Scotland).
Borknagar rose out of the ashes of the Norwegian death metal band Molested when then-member Øystein Brun became tired of the brutal aspects of the band’s music. Øystein formed Borknagar to explore a more melodic outlet of expression; he wrote all of the music and lyrics and gathered together an all-star group of black metal musicians to play in his band. Well-known musicians of the black metal scene (such as Infernus of Gorgoroth, Grim of Immortal and Gorgoroth, and Ivar Bjornson of Enslaved). And when Garm of Ulver, Head Control System, and ex-Arcturus joined the project, it brought immediate attention to Borknagar. The band never even recorded a demo – they simply asked for a record contract on Malicious Records and were granted their request. Borknagar’s majestic, melodic sound was instantly liked by many and received positive press attention.

i don't think it's stupid that people can dislike the band because they dislike the sound of the vocalist's voice. And i can imagine that people can hate mr.V's voice, as well as Vortex's voice. They are both very original and special each in their own way. I just feel sorry for those people because they don't know what they're missing! :p Vortex is singing on one song called "My Domain" on the new album. And it was delayed because of some changes within their record company Indie Distribution.

"i weep for that" fag

metalegghead 说：
They didn't lose that atmosphere, they moved on to something else. Vintersorg joined Borknagar nearly 9 years ago.
-
Manifestor 说：
update: thanks to ladyelvina you can all hear what i mean: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2dxa-jXAeQ no one can actually say that this song hasnt a total different sounds just bcs of the voice AND IMHO no one can actually like this performance if he has seen the same song performed by vortex.
-
Manifestor 说：
i think it is possible, that a band can suck solely bcs of the vocalist. vintersorg has a very special voice that suits perfectly with hisown project, especially on till fjälls. but any project he does, he gives his own note BCS of his voice so that in the end of the day they all sound pretty much the same. imho that is. borknagar has lost this great atmosphere they got in the first place. i weep for that and i indeed blame it on vintersorg. i will not listen to them anymore as long as they keep him as the vocalist. and: this may be as stupid as you may think it is, i dont care.

Schander 说：
Dorknagar, Orknagar, Borknigger. So, now that we got that out of the way... what's keeping the new album?
