By jason

BORKNAGAR's Oystein G. Brun has posted the following update at the band's Forum:

"We are right now finishing the production of our upcomming, acoustic based album. The music is hard to describe in simple words, but you should expect an album with a heart and a nerve that is truly unique. We are really looking forward to unleash this epos of musical magic upon the world as we have been planning this album for ages.....

The album is set to be released during October through Century Media Records worldwide. A more spesific release date will be issued soon!

Song titles...

There will be 9 songs on the album. The titles are: 'Earth Imagery', 'White', 'Cynosure', 'Human Nature', 'Grains', 'Acclimation', 'Signs', 'The Spirit Of Nature' and... a surprise. The album will contain one re- arranged/re- recorded song from one of our previous albums.

Erik Tiwaz (aka Tyr) playing bass...

On this album we have had to pleasure to work with Erik Tiwaz (aka Tyr) once more. He was the man behind the brilliant basslines on Empirisicm and has truly granted us with his magical low- frequencies on this album as well.

More news regarding a spesific release date, additional guest musicians and the album title will be issued very soon!

On behalf of Borknagar, Øystein G. Brun."
