Israel’s ORPHANED LAND will release a limited, 20th anniversary edition of their album, The Beloved's Cry, this Friday (November 18th) via Cyclone Empire.

The limited edition digipack features new liner notes, and remastered demo recordings from 1993.

Available at this location.

Orphaned Land were forced to cancel their gig in Marseille, France on November 11th at Le Poste à Galène due to electricity power problems in the city. But the band were able to give the fans a rare acapella performance in front of the venue! Check out YouTube footage below:

Century Media Records released The Road To OR-Shalem, a compelling live performance DVD by Orphaned Land on October 24th in Europe, and on November 1st in North America.

The Road To OR-Shalem is the premier Middle Eastern progressive metal crusaders’ DVD debut and documents the band’s incredible mission to unite warring factions in their home region through the power of music.

A new clip from the DVD can be seen below:

Filmed in Tel Aviv, Israel in December 2010, The Road To OR-Shalem features nearly two hours of stunning live material, as well as a 2nd bonus DVD. The bonus DVD material includes additional live footage, a behind-the-scenes documentary and video clips.

Orphaned Land hit stages for their very first European headline tour, starting November 10th in Italy. Singer Kobi Farhi is much exited to play songs of the new album, as well as all older hits, to the European crowd and sends out the following words:

"Hello everyone! After 20 years of Oriental metal we finally released our first ever DVD! Let me give you my word - It is one of the best DVD's you've ever seen, don't miss it! Furthermore, to promote the new DVD we will do our first ever European headline tour and will do it with a very special Oriental metal package along with MYRATH and ARKAN - just imagine Jews and Muslims living in the same tour bus and hitting all Europe with oriental metal sounds, it is different, special - do not miss us on the roads!"
