Best Borknagar Album?

[clayman666]

I haven't listened to too much of Borknagar, except a few samples i got from some sites...........i'm thinkin about gettin one of their cds.........anybody big fans wann reccommend a certain album?

 

[GravelessSoul]

All of their albums are nothing short of excellence...But my favorite is "Quintessence". You would do best if you just went to http://www.audiogalaxy.com and downloaded 2 or 3 songs from each album and see what you think. BUT DON'T DOWNLOAD THE ENTIRE ALBUM!!!!!!!!!!

OLDEN DOMAIN

 

[Ziuwarian]

Cannot decide between Olden Domain and Archaic Course... and perhaps Borknagar.

Bah, get them all!

 

[MacMoney]

The Olden Domain

 

[Kveldssanger]

After listening to it several times I'd have to agree that the Olden Domain is the best. Start from there and then get everything else.

 

[Shakermaker]

the selftitled and olden domain

 

[Lutz]

Selftitled.

 

[Torquemada]

The Olden Domain a Masterpiece

 

[Eldzik]

EMPIRICISM, cos sounds better than QUINTESSENCE... but all albums is masterpiece

 

[Thorgrimm]

oh, it's so hard to choose only one.. :s Quintessence...but i love all albums!

 

[Morningrise]

I posted this in another thread, but each album has its own uniqueness to it. Everyone of us will probably have a different opinion, just buy them all. But first I would get Empiricism, or Olden Domain.

 

[ChromeLife]

I would have to say Empericism... The rest are very good.. but can be hard to find (at least in the US) Quintessence is also QUITE good, but it takes a very deep listening to get everything out of it.. Empericism is.. "easier" to listen to.

 

[bleed for me]

i say quintessence or empiricism

 

[NotYourFriend]

don't make me choose between The Olden Domain & Quintessence :s

 

[Pitiless Wanderer]

Empericism. Vintersorg's clean vocals are much better than that dummy burger man Vortex

 

[Parasite]

Empiricism

 

[Ezaphen]

Personally I think "Archaic" is the best of these masterpieces.

All of the albums are great, yet different:
Archaic combines the elements that Borknagar is known for in a perfect mannor. Quintessence is more traditional metal with the Borknagar-sound well-embedded. -And Empirisicm sounds like a more modern Archaic. Mr. V really got the Borknagar-feel nailed down

I think the best one will be the next album. When everything has fallen into place, and Vintersorg + Borknagar can unleash their full potential!
