Borknagar’s epic self-titled Black Metal debut. Far more raw and aggressive than later more progressive works, with both grim and epic features interwoven with Viking, folk and acoustic highlights creating this dark atmospheric masterpiece.

The line up features vocalist Garm (Ulver / Arcturus), guitarist Ivar Bjornson (Enslaved), drummer Grim (Immortal/Gorgorath) and bassist Infernus (Gorgorath). Lyrically the tracks delve into the customs of the ancient Scandinavians, their mythology, sentiments and eternal struggle for existence against both man and nature.
