new interview

[ErikSL]

I wonder what the "surprises for long time fans of the band" could be. A move back to a more black metal sound? Guest vocals from Garm or Simen?

man...you never give up with the return of vortex or garm stuff.

The best news is that shows are planned. But dammit oystein, your never to old to be a rock star!

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

man...you never give up with the return of vortex or garm stuff.

Well I gave up on it after that one thread but now I can't imagine what else would be. For long time fans of the band...

Are you guys still recording in Top Room studio! You'll see Lars Jensen! Lars Nedland's brother Sindre did clean vocals on his album. Hey Lars is great and all but can his brother Sindre do any vocals too? Maybe just one?

What else could the long term surprise be though...Hmm...I hope it's not guest keyboard from Ivar. Or undead drums from Grim. Sorry that was in bad taste. I dunno I really think it's guest vocals. Oystein did joke about it on April fools.

How did I miss this thread... awesome fucking news! I hope they come to Canada.

 

[KRaEzTaIuRmED]

How did I miss this thread... awesome fucking news! I hope they come to Canada.

I think even if they played in Ireland, I'll still be going somewhere else to see them.

 

[darcy]

Good news! I'm looking forward to this, as always.

Asgeir... you are a cursed tease.

 

[Asgeir Mickelson]

Here's more from the teasing department: We booked a show today.

 

[Rivfadír]

Where?!

 

[Det Som Engang Var]

Norway I'm sure.

 

[Rivfadír]

I would fucking go to Norway to see them this time. I'm still beating myself up for missing them and Emperor at Inferno.

You gota say No matter where it is I'm going! Unless it's like mars, you're not going to mars... right?

Borknagar played Mars when touring for "The Archaic Course". I actually took pictures for Scream Magazine. True story!

Interesting.... now on a map where would this Mars be situated?

 

[Asgeir Mickelson]

Storgata in Oslo. But the venue closed years ago, hehe

That's means we're one step closer to finding out where you're going to be playing!

 

[Asgeir Mickelson]

Yep, you can rule out Mars...

 

[Undefined]

Just come to Canada, lots of European bands like to do a small tour of Eastern Canada. Kalmah is doing it this spring, Ensiferum did it in the Fall... there are many bands who've done this. And considering I never in my life would have thought I would get to see a live Kalmah show, then Borknagar can come here. Or just go to the US then, just come to this continent and I assure you myself and many others will come.

 

[Hubster]

Well this new record sounds pretty interesting. I hope we see a slightly rawer production and more direct aggression. No matter what though, should be good as always

 

[funeralportrait91]

Finally, some activity. Can't fucking wait!

Please tour the UK?

 

[Azzor1911]

I wanna know WHEN and WHERE the show is

 

[Doomtroll]

I will happily fly out to ANYWHERE to see Borknagar live. All I ask for is you do give us the information in advance rather than "oh, hey guys we're doing a gig tomorrow".
