Orphaned Land Album Details

2009-11-12 by Oliver | 30 Comments
Orphaned Land will release The Never Ending Way Of ORwarriOR in Europe on January 25, with a worldwide release following on Febuary 9.

Vocalist Kobi Farhi said: "As people that were born into the tragedy of our region, we have always been devoted to creating harmony between conflicts, a musical heaven on earth, a tango between God & Satan. Even in the album's artwork we combined Hebrew and Arabic, regardless of the fight between Jews and Muslims.

"I found a Jordanian guy, specialized in calligraphic artwork. He took letters from Hebrew and Arabic and moulded them in his art to create a symbol of peace. Same goes for our band photo, where we portrayed a synergy between the three monotheistic religions, that believe in the same God and yet, ridiculously have been killing each other for centuries "in the name of God" and turned the holy land into an orphaned land.

"Naturally we continued this idea of union on a musical level as well and the result is as always crazy, it's a miracle - in our concerts: our Jewish fans sing in Arabic and our Muslim fans sing in Hebrew, brave friendships have spawned and our Middle Eastern metal music destroys all this political witchcraft we have been trapped in for so long. This is a musical journey of hope in lands of war, creating heaven on earth, building a new Jerusalem."

That's funny, I just gave Mabool a listen yesterday and began wondering when the fuck this was out. Good timing. Can't wait, better be at least a 4.5 tbh.
