Ophur.com will remain dedicated to continue spreading Ophur’s music and allowing fans a chance to drop a line. It will still be updated with whatever else we can dig out and offer to the public. There are still lots of goodies laying around to add (if you have anything to contribute, let us know at mail@ophur.com). 

   We would like to thank everyone who has supported us, the fans for the inspiration to do…. whatever the heck it was we did, we love you. Special thanks to everyone who believed in us and helped us:
