BORKNAGAR - The Rhymes of the Mountain (Lyric Video)

[@osleandros]

Borknagar isn't a band. Borknagar is a sonorous living organism. The bridge between men and nature through music.

[@tutatis96]

+Leandro Ferreira de Aquino sonorus living orgasm*

[@dcpchamber]

cheers to that

[@thorerikdullum7529]

+Leandro Ferreira de Aquino Hail to that!

[@almiagmp]

+Leandro Ferreira de Aquino Agreed!!!

[@TheInvasionPlan]

+Tutatis What, it didn't say orgasm already?.......*actually reads*..........oh yea, look at that.....

[@phlebas80]

Thanks for being with me when I ascend my mountains, Borknagar.

[@GhoulishGrinMedia]

Yes! A thousand times yes!

[@griefforest1870]

That bridge leading into the chorus is one of the greatest musical achievements of the past 25 years or so. Absolutely brilliant. It boggles my mind how excellent the last 4 Borknagar albums are.

[@EmpiricMetulz]

I don't even have the words for how amazing this is. I feel like I'm on the Colorado mountains again.

[@angelspeak13]

This album was released on my 37th birthday. I didn't discover this music until a few weeks ago, but wow, thanks for the birthday present, guys.

[@jmp0035]

This is my first time hearing this. Been a Borknagar fan since The Olden Domain and they haven’t lost their touch!

[@felipeherrera6507]

totally man, in fact my first BORKNAGAR albums where th OLDEN DOMAIN and then Archais course, back in early 2000. Now i just fucking love this song, havent heard their last album thou. Hails from Chile

[@kylereed6548]

One of the most epic metal tracks I've ever heard hands down 👌🏿

[@PreciousMetalTrove]

Borknagar never disappoint. Never!

[@AVS_6]

It's so good to hear Hedlund, Hestnaes and Nedland singing in a same song! Hope to hear another songs when I purchase it What an outstanding recording! So clear! That's the way, buddies! :D

[@davetheMFdrummer]

+Artur Vicente (Rutra) Hey dude! Fancy seeing you here - united in wait for Borknagars new masterpiece :D

[@Anetron1]

+Artur Vicente (Rutra) which part is sung by Lazare? Him and Vintersorg have similar sounding clean vocals, but I think it's the "the cycle of all..." bit, right?

[@AVS_6]

+Anetron1 Hey, mate. So, listen to him 1:00 (echoes through the halls of lore), also on 2:13 (the cycle of all, the rise and fall...), also on 5:53, when he repeats "the cycle of all, the rise and fall". I think he appears on some choral pieces, but I dunno accurately. ;)

[@AVS_6]

+Dawid Osyda Hey dude, how is it going?! :D Another album, same anxiety, huh?! Hahaha Best wishes! :)

[@Anetron1]

Artur Vicente yeah, that's what I thought. Cheers! Can't wait to hear the song they recorded with Garm.

[@MusiCaninesTheMusicalDogs]

I'm always amazed at the epic sounding stuff Borknagar write!

[@ryanm5317]

My first song by this band, the vocals brought an instant smile to my face! Are all their songs this wonderful mix of heavy and melodic beauty?

[@felixarzuaga5805]

Yup! There a beautiful band dude! Specially when Vortex sings.

[@nirmalpaul13]

bro you've gotta check out their older stuff if you're into black metal. It's some Stormblast like madness. One of the most underrated bands ever

[@Varyel]

the oldest stuff was more heavier than this ^^

[@missmorksjal8865]

First song I listened was Noctilucent but because I put Winter Thrice on shuffle. And hearing Vintersorg was wooooo I'm going to love them. A month later I saw them live and dude, I've seen Sabaton live which gave an amazing show, but Borknagar blew up my mind. There was a before and after in my life when I saw them

[@philippmuller-litz401]

@@missmorksjal8865 nice taste, I love both, too

[@blackevilx89]

I wake up every day with this song!!!!I can't wait new album!!!!

[@homer655]

The concentrated awesomeness of this song was way to great for my unprepared earballs. Thank you for this, BORKNAGAR you gained one more fan.

[@fenchikziga]

Album of the year 2016!!!

[@PamelaCapurro]

Oh Mr.Vintersorg you're THE voice 😏

[@aanddone4747]

Beautiful, all of it. Not just the video. I had to listen to it 2 more times, to finally decide to stop lol

[@patrickbertlein4626]

Fuck, Vortex's vocals, fifteen years later still blowing me away. This is the first Borknagar album I have been paying attention to in probably a decade.

[@ItsNotaTuhmah]

You should listen Urd where Vortex sings even more.

[@Rose_in_Eden]

Love it ! Bork is great as always. Hope can see them live

[@Lotresquire6789]

Giving Borknagar a thorough listen. Geez, my ears are freaking missing out.

[@HomelessWoodpecker]

That riff at 3:40.... LOTR level of epicness

[@Trollaukinn]

I'm just a lowly gun toting Texan who had the pleasure of seeing them perform at Inferno Fest in Oslo about 7-8 years ago. That was a surreal, almost religious experience. And they just keep getting better.

[@nellsonstout7001]

I'm just a lowly gun toting Hoosier who REALLY wants to see them live. Did they play anything from their first album?

[@serenityfox8546]

The actual heck has this band been all my life

[@RashidAlesgerov]

My body isn't ready for album which is better than URD. I'm sure, i'll lose my mind completely.

[@silvidadi6153]

Andreas "Vintersorg" Hedlund. (Always sublime").

[@Aplyon09]

i absolutly love ICS Vortex's voice!!!

[@PeRogiTra]

didn't know for this band and that Vortex is in it. this song is awesome!

[@seanthompson1917]

Obscura and Borknagar both released songs in the last 12 hours. Its fucking Christmas.

[@davetheMFdrummer]

No words, just perfect !

[@NSbergthor]

[@patriziasant]

[@gallan30]

Amazing as always. can't wait for the album!

[@summoniing]

Back to form! Can't wait for this!

[@ShunaJenkins]

I just discovered these guys. OMFG They're fantabulous!!!! Woot! By the Gods where have i been that I've not heard them sooner :O Lol

[@thespectralsorrows]

Indeed, you are 20 years behind!_!

[@jeremyh2846]

Same here - I just "discovered" them about 10 minutes ago...WOW!

[@willy9204]

If the profile pic is you it's easy to see why you haven't your young these guys have been around since the mid 90's and they don't get near enough credit in bm community because they don't sound like crap

[@Kevin.7.]

Same! I've listened 4 songs of 'em already and I have to sleep; it's 2:16AM, lol. 2,19

[@azrael666ethereal]

Better late than never eh?? ;)

[@nettoflorestal]

Borknagar being epic as usual. Thumbs up!!

[@Devsho83]

Holy shit.... this is pure eargasm!!!!

[@RafaelSantos-is2hi]

Perfect! Just perfect!!!!!!!!

[@Parkourturtle69]

36 people still had no luck growing beards after listening to Borknagar

[@janteo1]

[@ryanm5317]

Damn I started being able to grow one at 15. I guess I was blessed by the god of the hairs

[@thegreatpoo2electricboogal318]

janteo1 bahahahaha I'm 25 and can't grow a beard.

[@ng2016]

Been able to grow a beard since I was 11, but finally came to terms with it at 29 and finally sport some facial hair. I used to fuckin hate it, since I’m an ape man.

[@draconianhell]

Simply amazing it sounds great.. cant' waith to have it and see you again on stage _\,,/

[@caddystrophic4778]

[@philippmuller-litz401]

[@AnfalasHerdsman]

[@Whosagoodboi]

This album is packed with unforgettable moments. A fucking gem to say the least. Cold Runs the River is my personal favorite. One of my favorite 2016 releases for sure. After Misery Index's The Killing Gods

[@neilmaccannell637]

dimmu who??im looking forward to this release Urd was fantastic as well,this is a solid and very talented lineup

[@williamsmith666]

neil maccannell So long as we have Oystein and crew, we've no need for Dimmu.

[@coffincandy]

THIS SONG IS EVERYTHING.

[@sirkittenlordoftuna6705]

We need a lyric video for Cold Runs the River.

[@miguelantoniobalderasherna6718]

Borknagar, banda que no pierde su escencia. Si no por el contrario cada ves mas arraigada en su genero...black melodico

[@fabriziotartarini6576]

this is a masterpiece :o

[@e.ximenes7508]

Foda ,não aguentava mais esperar...

The mountains chime Avast the relentless rhyme The majesty, the regency Revails the everlasting rivalry Crowned by the haze of history A ferocious tore A regaining core Ordained by the weight of gravity Echoes through the halls of lore Echoes through the halls of lore Crowned by the haze of history The monumental fortress of primal grace Shimmers beyond the horizon astray Vast and wondrouds cast of the glorious Harmony, diversity, adversary The cycle of all The rise and fall Exuberance in waste Depravity Excellence in barren nobility The lore of monumental regency The rhymes of the mountain The cycle of all The rise and fall Exuberance in waste Depravity Excellence in barren nobility The lore of monumental regency Regency The rhymes of the mountain The rhymes of the mountain Vast and wondrouds cast of the glorious Harmony, diversity, adversary Vast and wondrouds cast of the glorious Harmony, diversity, adversary Ordained by the weight of gravity Echoes through the halls of lore The monumental fortress of primal grace Shimmers beyond the horizon astray The cycle of all The rise and fall Exuberance in waste Depravity Excellence in barren nobility The lore of monumental regency The rhymes of the mountain

[@ChrisJ5280]

Damn, this band is effing awesome!

[@DudeWatIsThis]

Their best song yet.

[@TheChrisBegg]

I had to change my underwear 3 times while listening to this.

[@fearthepointman3134]

Chris Begg hahaha!

[@Rose_in_Eden]

Same feeling, well said !

[@johnwaynowski2466]

[@marloncombat7917]

The borknagar, lives its best phase. Evolution without cheap extremism.

[@u.v.s.5583]

Cronian is freaking awesome.

[@thescientist9218]

I searched a soundtrack for wandering in the nature of norway....Found it!

[@mattb9054]

This always reminds me of a fantasy RPG like the Witcher or Elder scrolls, god I miss my childhood, my imagination was souring, now I just feel so stale 😭 what the hell happened to me

[@luiscorreia1216]

Just perfect. Love it. \m/

[@killernazis]

[@flameeye1]

+PietroRumenta he has been back with them since the last CD, Urd

[@Maledictionvocalist]

It's a simple fucking masterpiece. Should be a national anthem.

[@typeo1984]

Thank you Borknagar! XD

[@eternum7056]

We are living in the world where some K-pop bands are far more popular than this music. We are doomed

[@luigizapata8949]

....all the voices!

[@Sypholux]

I mean how freaking awesome is this.... 3:27 full robo-Vintersorg!

[@distant6606]

what a masterpiece

[@Alinemicaela1]

Wow, amazing song! Just discovered them. Which album should I start listening to?

[@pferdebert]

Winter Thrice - first track :)

[@felixarzuaga5805]

Aline Schmidt start from the beginning because you'll see and appreciate how hard they've work to get to this point! Like i said, all there albums r good but the ones that Vortex sing are the best! Listen to "the Presence is Ominous!"

[@TheLeatherfist]

quintessence

[@felipecv]

The Olden Domain

[@symonjesterwise9185]

i can't wait

[@Elias_619]

Need a three syllable words' definition?......Borknagar will teach you in song. Come my child.

[@duendedu5433]

Lazare y vortex excelentes vocalistas mi banda favorita lml nunca mueran borknagar

[@ReefZA]

[@kruspe-dv1gy]

[@algolc]

Cronian is that you...? Epic song.

[@edgartorres8525]

Simplemente me encanto :)

[@3731385]

Sounds like Ásmegin.. really good band!

[@ItsNotaTuhmah]

Lazare (keys, backing vocals) sung in their debut.

[@pinkfloyd1967]

Magnificent

[@shadoweaglebear]

awsome!

[@gabrielneto6215]

incredible

[@BornAgainDude]

Wow never heard that sound from borknagar! Only the "melodic black metal" stuff

[@viking_sith_lord]

Oh hell yeah \m/

[@TheIntangibleContext]

Well, I'm glad somebody owns a thesaurus.

[@keithcambra9760]

I have never been a huge fan of Vintersorg's vocal performances but he sounds excellent here. Of course then a returning ICS Vortex blows him out of the water. XD

[@TheEighthHouseSol]

Tears, almost everytime. Stir the fucking soul why don't you.
