Brought together in Stockholm by guitarists Peter Lindgren and Mikael Åkerfeldt in 1990, Opeth added progressive influences and acoustic instrumentation to their brand of Swedish death metal. Now, 18 years later, fans all over the world get exited months before the release of a new Opeth-album. It doesn't really matter if the boys release alive or studio-album. Fans know it will be a record to listen to for days in a row. Not only because it's a great one, but especially because Opeth's music isn't easy listening. Or is it?
