Opeth Go Behind The Scenes Of Historic Gig
.
(Prog) Opeth have shared a behind-the-scenes promo for their biggest ever UK headline show at London's SSE Wembley Arena.

He'd previously admitted that Opeth deal with a lot of criticism for moving away from the extreme, heavy-metal sound of their earlier years.

"That's not even an issue, because that's not going to happen. Because the essence of Opeth isn't death-metal vocals. The essence of Opeth is change." But Akerfeldt said last week that "The new songs go down really well." Read more and watch the video here. Prog Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com. advertisement |
