"The Olden Domain" is Borknagar's second studio album, and their first to feature English lyrics. It would also mark 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 released by the band to feature Garm (credited on this album as "Fiery G. Maelstrom") on vocals. It is also their first album to feature Kai K. Lie on bass, replacing Infernus.
