OPETH Pays Tribute To Classic Heavy Metal Artists

[DEMIgOD]

Pretty cool and unexpected artical on blabber :

Swedish metallers OPETH have issued the following update:

"A memorable evening for any OPETH fan took place on September 8th and 9th at the notorious Anchor Bar in central Stockholm, Sweden. Martin Mendez (bass), Axe [Martin Axenrot; drums] and Fredrik Åkesson [guitar] played a full-on heavy metal cover set fronted by Mats Levén [KRUX, ex-YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, THERION]." The group's setlist was as follows (in no particular order):

01. Fast As A Shark (ACCEPT)
02. Disturbing The Priest (BLACK SABBATH)
03. Mob Rules (BLACK SABBATH)
04. Hole In The Sky (BLACK SABBATH)
05. Welcome Home (KING DIAMOND)
06. Welcome Home (Sanitarium) (METALLICA)
07. Painkiller (JUDAS PRIEST)
08. Victim Of Changes (JUDAS PRIEST)

thats because its not opeth.

 

[DEMIgOD]

im pretty aware of that. But regardless its still 3 members

 

[TehLeperAffinity]

They don't play any Opeth material, of course it's not going to sound like them.

 

[Godhead59]

Wow, that sounds awesome! Mats is great.
I'd kill to hear Mike make his own interpretation of Sanitarium, growling the choruses. That would be lovely.

 

[[KOTNO]Narrot]

they sound tight (=
