All Is One, their fifth studio album, was mixed by Jens Bogren( Kreator, Amon Amarth, James LaBrie, Devin Townsend Proyect, Opeth) and recorded in three countries: Israel, Turkey and Sweden, countries that are Jew, Muslim and Christian, respectively, that reinforces the Orphaned Land message of unity through music. More than 40 musicians were used to deepen the sound in this album, including a 25 people-choir and 8 musicians from Turkey in the violin, viola and violoncello and traditional instruments. The lead singer, Kobi Farhi, on his side, considers All Is One“ the best album we have made so far.”
The theme All Is One, give us a wonderful and festive welcome with a totally epic chorus that left anyone with ears and gobsmacked, this song is full of instrumentals, vocalizations and sounds, as well as the great performance of Farhi, that take us to that part of the world and not leaving anyone impassive. The Metal elements, as riffs are in charge of Yossi Sassi, they harmonize with the folklore components delivering an extremely spectacular song.
