Origin (Borknagar album)
Origin is the seventh studio album by Norwegian progressive metal band Borknagar. Origin explores the band's more traditional elements and is primarily an acoustic effort.
Bassist Jan Erik "Tyr" Tiwaz is featured on the album following his brief departure during the recording sessions for the band's previous release Epic.
