Israel's progressive folk metal masters ORPHANED LAND are scheduled to release their new album, "The Never Ending Way of ORwarriOR", in January 2010 via Century Media Records. The highly anticipated follow-up to 2004's "Mabool" was mixed by legendary musician/producer Steven Wilson (PORCUPINE TREE, OPETH) and was previously described by ORPHANED LAND vocalist Kobi Farhi as "one of the most interesting and original albums the worldwide metal scene has ever known!"
ORPHANED LAND made a rare U.S. appearance at the ProgPower USA X festival, which was held September 11-12, 2009 at the Center Stage in Atlanta, Georgia.
Commented Farhi: "Playing in the USA is always an adventure for us. The fans are very much devoted and even the people who don't know your band give you the right attention.
"When we were announced for ProgPower USA [festival] last year, I was sure that by this time our album would be out, but since it's a complex album, we delayed it and had to leave the studio just for this show, so in a way, the ProgPower fans were the first in the world to hear us play an unprecedented, SIX brand new songs.
"The reaction was great and the fans were with us all along the show — clapping hands, jumping and even belly-dancing.
"After so much time in the studio, we really needed that feedback and I'm very grateful [to] all the fans.
"I feel that our music is a new breeze for the metal scene, a breeze that brings a new tune and sound of metal from the Middle East and we know that this was just the starting point. It is now the time to bring our unique brand of music to all of North America, so stay tuned as we will be back soon."
An audio teaser for "The Never Ending Way of ORwarriOR" is available for streaming on the band's official web site.
