    Changing forum skin?

    Is there anyway to change, in particular, this forums color scheme to something less taxing on the eyes? Its bad enough to have a black background but the brown makes it harder to read too... lets get some lighter colors going on - like maybe the ones in my avatar! Orphaned land is all about...

    Lyrics and pronounciation in "Norra El Norra"?

    Norra El Norra has been and continues to be my favorite Orphaned Land song ever, and it took me awhile before I realized that I really needed to learn the English phonetics of the lyrics so I could sing along with it (b/c the only part I can actually sing is literally "Norra El Norra..." and...

    Question about Orphaned Land's near decade long break...

    I'm a new fan of the band that got into them through buying the "Mabool" album a month ago, and while I've in that time tracked down and bought copies of the 2 older albums, I've noticed that the band has been asbent from recording or well, doing anything, since 1996. The biography on the...

    Anyone ever order merchandise from www.wofshop.de?

    I ordered Borknagar and Vintersorg shirts in an order about a week ago from that site, and while I got a confirmation email saying they recieved my order, I haven't heard anything since then about their 'shipping charge confirmation' email. I live in the USA so I'd realize it would be more than...

    Favorite songs from The Focusing Blur?

    It took me a couple repeat listens of the whole album to really get into it, but now I am pretty convinced 'The Focusing Blur' is either my favorite or second favorite Vintersorg album ever. Great album Vintersorg, just what I needed right now too. A friend and I have just formed a two man...

    Vintersorg music wrongly being associated with hate record label!

    I saw this on another message board (the official megadeth forums), and thought that I should bring it to everyone's attention. Someone was expressing their displeasure with the existence of this racist/hate oriented record company and another poster brought it to attention that Vintersorg's...

    Opeth US tourdate trouble !

    can somebody give me a "what the fuck?" Ok - even though this probably doesn't affect me - it still pisses me off because it might screw over some other fans in other cities. Opeth's North American tour - Opeth US Tour 2003 with Lacuna Coil. Support will be split between Yakusa and Beyond...
