Hey guys im new to this forum, never posted here before! but ive heard some tracks from Orphaned Land and im really really liking what i'm hearing, could anybody give me a suggestion of maybe what album i should start with and maybe a website where i can buy it from because i doubt you can buy any Orphaned Land here in Aus ive tried looking already!!
Oh btw i've heard that Steven Wilson is producing your next album... you guys are so very lucky he's a genius!!
which country are you from and samples from which songs did you hear?
well it doesn't matter really because there are only 3 OL albums+1 demo and a limited edition vinyl
in order of release
1.The beloved's cry(demo)- originally issues on tape reissued in 2000 on cd with a bonus live video of Seasons Unite
2.Sahara(album, 1994)-originally released on tape and cd(if i remember correctly) remastered and rereleased in a digipack with bonus tracks(2002): above you all(from the demo),pits of dispair(from the demo),The beloved's cry(martini remix).
3.El norra Alila(album,1996)- originally released on cd, rereleased in digipack in 2004(if i'm correct) and now is about to be released a new 10 years anniversary remastered deluxe edition digipack with bonus track
isciples of the sacred oath(available previously on The holy Bible vol.1 compilation) and 2 bonus videos
4.Mabool(album,2004)- released as a jewlcase cd and a limited edition double cd when on the second cd was an acoustic OL concert caled "the calm before the flood"(not sure if the double cd edition is still available) and in 2005 there was a 500 copy limited edition transperent wax double vinyl
5.Ararat(ep,2005) available only on 500 copies limited edition 10 inch vinyl(not sure if there are still copies left)
basicly whatever OL merchindise you want to get you can do it through the Orphaned store on their website
www.orphaned-land.com
under "the band" tab there's an online shop where you can buy most of the above mentioned plus OL t-shirts patches medalions etc. etc.
I also know that Sahara and El norra alila are avialable at the online shop of holy records mabool is available through century media online shop but it's also supposed to be in the metal section in a cd store near you or in a metal oriented cd shop near you.Ararat vinyl is available also throgh the end records
that should be about it
about 170 euros and you pretty much cover the entire orphaned land currently available catalogue+merchandise+one year membership in the the official fan club that has its own bonuses
