justdave's notes:
I ripped the waves with DVD Audio Extractor. I then used Goldwave to adjust the volume, edit so,e track marks, and smooth transitions between bands. No EQ or noise reduction was used.

This is a great sounding 2 hours of Heavy Metal and Hard Rock. My main reason for encoding this DVD's audio was to have the Orphand Land portion. Orphand Land are a Folk Metal band from Israel. The band combines Heavy Metal & Traditional Middle Eastern Folk Music. The fact that it has a great set from Thrash Metal Pioneers Annihilator is like icing on the cake. Also included in this set are, The Blues Pills some great Hard Rock/Metal from Sweden, Viking Metal/Post-Metal band Sólstafir from Iceland, Finnish Melodic Death Metal band Insomnium and the traditional Hard Rock Metal band from Sweden Screamer.

Orphaned Land is a Progressive Metal band from Petah Tikva, Israel. They combine elements of Doom Metal, Death Metal, and Middle Eastern Folk Music to come up with their particular sound. Their music deals with themes of light and darkness, good and evil, East meeting West, and the commonality of the 3 main Abrahamic Religions (ie. Christianity, Islam, and Judaism). Their third release Mabool: The Storie of the Three Sons deals with the tale of the great deluge of Biblical times. The story revolves around 3 main characters (representing the 3 major religions) who are trying to warn the world of the coming flood sent to punish their sins. The band followed this album with an EP about Mount Ararat. Although their music draws on religious themes the band insists they are not religious and are trying to promote unity among the many races of the world.

This is a very nice sounding recording from the bands 2011 festival appearance in France. The band is in fine form presenting songs from all 4 of their major releases.

The band has received glowing recommendations from Steven Wilson of Porcupine Tree, who actually mixed their 2010 release The Never Ending Way of ORWarriOR, ORwarriOR (means "light warrior" or "warrior of light") representing a conceptual hero of the battle of light versus darkness.
