OPETH – Pro-Shot Footage From Wacken Open Air 2015

On July 31st, Opeth spent a sunny afternoon on the Black Stage at the 26th annual Wacken Open Air Festival in Wacken, Germany. Wacken TV has since uploaded professionally filmed footage of the final song from the band’s set that day, “Deliverance”.

Opeth have announced details of two very special US performances celebrating the group’s landmark 25th anniversary. The unique shows, dubbed An Evening With Opeth, are set for October 22nd at New York’s Beacon Theater and October 24th at Los Angeles’ Orpheum Theater and will see Opeth celebrating their remarkable career with two unique sets each night. 

The progressive Swedes will perform 2005’s much-lauded Ghost Reveries album in its entirety (which in turn is celebrating its 10th anniversary), plus a second set of classics from their 25-year career. Opeth’s Mikael Åkerfeldt commented on the special performances saying, “The forces that be put up a very mystical and subtle little advert on the so called internet. Yes, we will celebrate 25 years of being Opeth in 2015 and this is reason enough to gather up the forces and play. For you.”  For more details and ticket information visit this location.
