Nick, are Orplid similar to Anathema, or The 3rd and the Mortal? 
The Gathering? or ar they mostly in the way of Elend and other 
avantgarde bands?can you tell me of similar groups - is just to 
make myself an idea of their music?
Have you edited something with your project - or have you 
something in MP3? I am very interested in that kind of music.
