Borknagar
For The Elements 1996-2006
BORKNAGAR made the step from Black Metal to more and more progressive, more and more sophisticated song ideas, which mastermind and main songwriter Oystein G. Brun as a multi-instrumentalist nevertheless designed in a way that they are catchy and comprehensible. The first ten years of the now 25-year history are summarized on this "Best Of": A journey into a musical cosmos, a journey that sometimes demands a lot from the listener, but at the end of the day it is a trip that touches you musically, takes you by the hand and carries you off into a parallel universe. A Best Of record with a part of music history as it will never be written again. You can literally feel the atmosphere of new beginnings. Borknagar are exotics in the music business, who never followed a line and still have their faithful and loyal fanbase behind them.
