The Olden Domain is the second studio album by Norwegian
heavy metal band
Borknagar, and their first to feature
English lyrics. It also marks the beginning of the band's transition to their trademark
progressive/
folk/
black metal sound featured on later records.
This would be the band's last studio album to feature
Kristoffer Rygg on vocals. It is also their first album to feature Kai K. Lie on bass, replacing
Infernus.
