OPETH Mainman Interviewed By ONDERGROND.TV; Video Available

December 26, 2008

Holland's Ondergrond.tv conducted an interview with guitarist/vocalist Mikael Åkerfeldt of Swedish progressive metallers OPETH prior to the band's November 25, 2008 concert at the Melkweg in Amsterdam. Watch the chat below.

OPETH's latest video for "Burden" received its online premiere on November 4. While Danish director Lasse Hoile (DREAM THEATER, PORCUPINE TREE, STEVEN WILSON) shot and directed the storyline in Denmark, OPETH filmed the band performance at the Vogue theater in Vancouver, Canada.

"The Roundhouse Tapes", the long-awaited new DVD from OPETH, was released in Europe on Peaceville Records on October 27 (UK - November 10, USA - November 11).

"The Roundhouse Tapes" contains a critically acclaimed OPETH performance recorded at The Roundhouse, London in 2006. Described by Rock Sound as "a show of spectacular greatness in this legendary venue … an amazing performance by one of Europe's premier epic metal bands," the DVD perfectly captures the band in scintillating form playing a selection of classics from throughout their career.
