I don't see any limitation numbers on M-A or Discogs, so I have no idea.

They aren't really the same band now as they were when this album came out, but I imagine the live show is still worth seeing. If you like the albums n crugu bradului and Om you should most definitely check out the band Dordeduh if you haven't already.

Despite the seemingly perpetual "session musician" lineup Negura Bunget now uses, I would see them if they played in my city. Do you get a good amount of shows coming through Ireland? I live in Utah, USA and thanks to geography, a lot of bands pass right by us when traveling between Denver Colorado and the bigger west coast cities.

For me it's a tossup between n crugu bradului and Om. But I like that both albums are completely different in a lot of ways. I used to listen to music a lot when I go running, and n crugu was definitely one of my favorite running albums. I can't stress enough how much I love Dordeduh though. That album of theirs is incredibly good. I can listen to that first track, Jind de tronuri on repeat for hours.

This is the third reincarnation of the band, but the new line-up is amazing, very talented musicians and the atmosphere is still there. I saw them a few months ago opening the show for Rotting Christ and it was a great show. (And it’s the fourth time I see them, including twice with the original line-up).

good to hear the live show is still worth it

yeah we are getting a good few bands in Ireland these days, either Dublin or Belfast.
it's take your pick to be honest!
but its rare you get something good on a Friday or Saturday night, so when I seen this for Friday I jumped at it

I will have make sure to check out any future material the third reincarnation may release based on what you say. I was pretty underwhelmed with both Vîrstele pămîntului and Măiestrit. To me those albums felt like they were trying to re-create the mood of Om but not very successfully. Granted, it's been a few years since I've listened to both of those so maybe I'll eventually revisit them down the road.

Yes, you should do it hehe.

I personally love Virstele Pamintului, it is obviously influenced by Om but it has a folkier approach and I think it was more original than Dordeduh´s debut, which was a copy of Om but not as good as this album was.

By the way, Maiestrit was only a re-recorded version of the second album, done by the original line-up, and I really like it because the original production was awful, I have always thought that this album deserved a better sound.

yeah I think the sound of this album isn't great
it's not a bad album but haven't got into that much just yet. I need a few more listens, but I wasn't immediately blown away

It's a grower not a show-er. Definitely their best album. I have that A5 but the leaf has pretty much disintegrated. I'd say Zirnindu Sa is underrated and it's definitely up there as well.. I remember when that came out, it caused quite a stir about the band.
