RockSverige.se conducted an interview with guitarist/vocalist Mikael Åkerfeldt of Swedish progressive metallers OPETH at this year’s Sweden Rock Festival, which was held last weekend in Sölvesborg. You can now watch the chat below. A couple of excerpts follow (transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET).
On whether any progress has been made on his long-rumored solo album:
“I don’t know. Maybe. I actually got an offer from a record label to do a solo record not long ago. But, I mean, those rumors come from me saying that I would like to do a thing like that to learn more about studio production, like the technical aspect of recording a record. So I was thinking I’m gonna start in a somewhat easy way, with just an acoustic guitar and vocals — basically some type of singer-songwriter record. But, I mean, it hasn’t materialized. And since then people ask me all the time, ‘When is it coming?’ So it was never decided, really; it was just, like, something I said.”
On whether he has any material set aside already for a possible solo album:
“Well, nothing that I’ve written with the intention of putting it out as a solo record. It’s just… I have snippets of songs that haven’t ended up anywhere else. So I might… I might do something, but I don’t think people should hold their breaths.”
On whether there are any plans to release a second album from STORM CORROSION, the collaboration between Åkerfeldt and PORCUPINE TREE‘s Steven Wilson:
“I think there’s a possibility that we… We don’t really know what to do with another record — what would it be? The good thing with [the first] STORM CORROSION
