OPETH's Lamentations Get's 180 Gram Vinyl By Larry Petro, News Monkey Monday, May 2, 2016 @ 2:41 PM
Label manager Joel De'ath commented, "Those who were at this OPETH show saw the band emerging from their chrysalis to become the force we know today. It was a pivotal moment in their career and it's been a pleasure to immortalize the recordings onto vinyl."
Lamentations features a live performance of OPETH's Damnation album in full, interspersed with songs from the band's masterpieces Blackwater Park and
Deliverance. Conceived and recorded alongside Deliverence, Damnation marked a radical shift in style and tone. The band took the opportunity to move away from their earlier death metal sound and towards a style reminiscent of 1970s progressive rock, taking inspiration from their Blackwater Park collaborator and producer Steven Wilson (PORCUPINE TREE).
Lamentations was recorded live at the prestigious Shepherd's Bush Empire venue, shortly after both albums were released.
Having celebrated their 25th anniversary as a band last year, alonside re-issuing Deliverance and Damnation, OPETH are returning to the live circuit in 2016. The band will be making appearances at an extensive series of European festivals, as well as returning for a headline performance at Wembley Arena on November 19.
Pre-orders are now available right HERE.
OPETH's Deliverance and Damnation, as well as the recent remixed and remastered classic, 2001's Blackwater Park, are also available digitally.
