-The aim of **Norsk Urskog** is to promote the lesser known bands in the Norwegian metal scene. We wish to privide a venue where these bands can get to expose themselves to an international audience as well as a business no less international. We do this by dirstributing a CD sampler among the audience and business people at the Inferno Metal Festival held in Oslo in the easter of every year. We include the CD sampler with every ``goodiebag'' that the Inferno Festival hands out both to itæs audience, bands, promoters and businesses.
+**Norsk Urskog** is a volunteer based project aiming to support and promote young Norwegian underground bands within the metal genre and this is done via its website, the social media and a CD sampler distributed at the [Inferno Metal Festival][1] in Oslo, Norway - and possibly at other festivals where Inferno is present.
-One third of the audience ath the **Inferno Metal Festival** is from outside of Norway. In addition it is a meeting place for most of the metal related business from all over the world.
+The main goal is to showcase the participating bands to an international audience, giving the less known quality music a chance to be heard by a wide variety of people and allowing them to discover new favorites from all over Norway. We want to offer the hard working bands an opportunity to be heard, judged and, as much as possible, seen - since Norsk Urskog's
+collaboration with Inferno Festival also involves an own scene for concerts where selected bands from each release are given an opportunity to perform live.
-**Norsk Urskog** is completely independent and base it's operation on the bands splitting the cost for printing the CD among themselves. In addition we depend on gifts and sponsorships to cover administrative costs and royalties. The Inferno Metal Festival supports the project, but we are otherwise independent.
+The volunteers behind the project are handling the logistic aspects such as CD creation, printing, covers, dialogues with various entities, website, promos, while the bands interested in participating in this project have as responsability to fill in a form, submit it and then just compose and finalize the songs that they have subscribed for.
+
+Currently you can have a look at how the previous Norsk Urskog samples looked like at this page. You can contact us via email at this address, should you have any questions, and if you're interesting in having your song on the 2016 edition of Norsk Urskog, read the terms and condition and submit the form here.
