Oystein G. Brun has announced that the next project by Borknagar will be an acoustic album "based entirely on the epic and progressive aspect of the band." He continues "This is something we have wanted to do for many years now, and the idea has lingered within the band ever since the recording of 'Quintessence' and a few private sessions with a grand piano and an acoustic guitar. The album will be acoustic-based but largely arranged with a wide range of instruments and vocal styles. It will be recorded by the same line-up that did 'Epic', and we will be working with different locations during the recording process in order to catch the sounds of different acoustic environments. Musically the album will be rather dissimilar from what we have done before, though the unique Borknagar sound will surly shine through." More info to come.
