Orphaned Land announce '30 Years Of Oriental Metal' box set

Metal group Orphaned Land will celebrate their 30th anniversary with a special box set.

Announced today, the limited-edition set will arrive on December 10 via Century Media. The set features the band’s previous six albums and two additional albums full of bonus songs. The box set can be pre-ordered here.

Singer Kobi Farhi said this about the band’s anniversary:

“Wow....it's unbelievable 30 years have gone already! Looking back, we feel so proud we succeeded to extend the metal scene from the well-known American, South American, European & Scandinavian scenes, we made it wider when we started the 'Oriental Metal’ genre and introduced metal from the Middle East to the world, since 1991. Cheers for the next 30 years.”

Orphaned Land will be touring across Europe next year.
