Borknagar - The Presence is Ominous Lyrics
Prior to the forces of primacy
Concealed by the essence, the profane
Withdraws in manners of erosion
Spine of the universal conflicts
Reversed in time, proceed in time
Swallowed by dimensions
Swallowed by the flames
I see fear so clear in the eyes
The eyes that burn by sight
I see fear so clear when you die
The cries that torches swept by
I am yet to see the good victorious
I am yet to see the man victorious
Death tamed by life
Swept towards a new domain
Reversed in time, proceed in time
Swallowing dimensions
Swallowing the flames
I see fear so clear in the eyes
I see fear so clear when you die
Spine of the universal confilcts
As the motion of winds and oceans
I am on the isle of existence
the mountains at my trail
I am prepared to die
when the faith comes around to fail
Swept towards a new domain
Reversed in time, proceed in time
Swallowing dimensions
I see fear so clear in the eyes
The eyes that burns by sight
I see fear so clear when you die

Borknagar The Presence is Ominous Comments
Ahhhhh
Orgasm....
My victory song. I used to play each time I felt Victorious...
Best Fucking Borknagar Song Ever.
Awesome song
my favorite song off this album! Magestic!
It's amazing how Vortex took an already good song (from a musical sound point) and turns it into an instant masterpiece with his multi layered vocals, all of which are going in different octaves and styles. To this day, I'm still not able to emulate his higher octave clean vocals to any level I'm satisfied with, and as a singer myself, I've been trying for the better part of 12 years or so now, hahaha!
@Hammerheart1981 Nope, that'd be Vortex at this point. Garm only did vocals for the debut album, and The Olden Domain.
@Robert Chase Yeah, I thought that you were saying that 12 years ago you thought Vortex was also in the original lineup of Borknagar
@Hammerheart1981 Hahahaha, and easy mistake to make! :) I meant that I first heard this song a good 12 years ago, and have been trying to sing it since, to little success. :P
+Hammerheart1981 erm...Garm
yep vortex here, garm on olden...
Fuck yeah , what's up with this fucking earworm melody ?!
It's not even one of the best songs out there .. it's just ....
Just perfect ;-)
I just listened to this for the first time in years and cried like a little girl :S
I came from Immortal Night. Eternal Damnation House. :)
Yes this is the first one i heard and the vocals blew me away, if only this kind of blending is done more often... its like a nordic god is singing
easily one of the best metal (across the board) singers if not THE best. I love how he manages not to sound screechy in the high register, which is often the case in metal. I was lucky enough to see him with Dimmu back in 2008 but not with Borknagar :(
I, Too, Was Grateful To See Dimmu In 2003. It Truly Was An Epic Night Because Of Vortex. I Would Soul Myself Itself To See Ulver.
I saw him twice with Dimmu 2002 and 2007... Just saw Borknagar in Kristiansand. Epic!!!
And of course later in the track, the second clean voice is not simply transposed up an octave, but rather harmonizing the first line.
This was a really innovative and effective vocal sound they created here. It's not just Vortex clean + Vortex growl, it's clean, clean up one octave, and growls. The resulting sound really blew me away when I first heard it, it sounded inhuman. But it truly empowered the music in an original way I never would have expected.
is the best song yeah borknagar is the best!
Borknagar kicks asses
at the end of Vortex's first clean part in "The Insight and the Catharsis" by Dimmu Borgir, Shagrath joins in and they sing the last line in unison. Something similar is happening here, Vortex layers his clean vocals with his growls, producing one sexy supersonic kick in the ass.
es la rola mas chingonaa de este discoo
The best Borknagar's song ♥
