One of my first black metal albums. Nice to reminisce, still a great record, even if that is nostalgia talking.

Has some BM stylish parts, but I wouldn't call it a BM album. Really great anyway.

In my mind Borknagar have always been a black metal band first and foremost. I've never bought into the progressive metal tag they get tarred with from time to time.

Ye, my opinion differs a bit. Reminds me of (modern) Enslaved. Both have some typical BM elements but the albums are just too far away from BM.

Enslaved is another band who've always been black metal to me. I certainly don't call them viking metal, and neither do I call Windir viking metal either. I don't call any band viking metal really. Both (Borknagar and Enslaved) are progressive black, or something to that effect. To me anyway.

So if you love this sound and do not want to by a remastered version, then buy it in the near future.

An album that shows Borknagar's ever further progression from BM territory into new and unfamiliar sounds. It still has a great atmosphere as is expected from the band yet with songs as somewhat experimental as 'The presence is ominous' and 'Icon dreams' this atmosphere is made ever more epic and ambitious.

How this isn't everyone's fave Bork album is a curiosity to me.Then agin it was one of my first black-ish records ever (pretty much reiterating what I said in my first post).
