Description:Norwayâ??s avantgarde Black Metal pioneers and innovators BORKNAGAR arise at their most spirited and resplendent on their 11th studio album, â??True Northâ?. Succeeding 2016â??s acclaimed â??Winter Thriceâ? release and 25 years into the bandâ??s existence, BORKNAGARâ??s characteristically varied fusion of musical styles and inimitable layered vocal arrangements elevates the hour-long array of these 9 new tracks to a sonic spectacle of epic proportions and undisputable grandeur. â??True Northâ? was once again mixed by Jens Bogren / Fascination Street Studios (Opeth, Amon Amarth, Kreator) and is made available as limited first-pressing Digipak CD with 2 bonus tracks and as Gatefold 2-LP on 180gr. vinyl. -
