Opeth are truly one of the best bands playing and recording today. They are not afraid to take risks and change their style. No matter what they do, it’s just superb.

Don’t get confused by the picture as this is not a four disc edition, just two separate copies with just one cover showing. I also have the Blu-Ray of this show and it’s really good. I was worried that the vinyl would not be as good sound wise, but they seem to have done a vinyl mix.

The band were touring on the back of the Sorceress album and that’s the track that’s opens up the show. It’s a killer track – the perfect mix of metal and Prog. Ghost Of Perdition from Ghost Reveries is up next and it’s one of my favourite Opeth tracks, and one where screams were still part of their musical landscape. Next up we go way back in the catalogue for Demon Of The Fall from My Arms Your Hearse. Epic track and I do miss the dynamic change in vocal with the screams. Back to Sorceress with Wilde Flowers, and you can see and hear the new Opeth and the direction they were moving in. Next up is In My Time Of Need from Deliverance, which I think is a beautiful piece. The Devils Orchard from the Heritage album is next and that is my favourite track from that album. It’s just superb and again showcases their new direction.

The only track played from Pale Communion is next with Cusp Of Eternity, and again it’s one of my favourite Opeth tracks. Everything about this track is just superb. A great melody and vocal from Mikael, and the music is epic. The only track from Watershed is next with the absolutely evil sounding Heir Apparent, and this track could be the basis for a horror movie of its own. Another Sorceress track Era follows, and it’s Prog Heaven as we are transported back to the mid-seventies – well that’s the vibe it gives off to me.

The concert and album closes out with the mighty Deliverance, and this is definitely a fan favourite – everyone goes bananas when the band play this. The band have made four live albums so far and you can go and pick your favourite era. This is a great representation of where the band are at now. I really love this album, but I am a huge Opeth fan.

9.5/10 from The Grooveman.
