OPETH are to play ‘Blackwater Park’ in it’s entirety at 6 special shows that will celebrate the band’s 20th Anniversary!

At each show, the band will perform two sets. The first set will feature OPETH playing their breakthrough epic ‘Blackwater Park’ in its entirety. The second set will consist of mixed material from the band’s extensive catalog. The band will be playing for over two hours at carefully selected venues in order to achieve an element of intimacy and exclusivity.

Michael Akerfeldt has had the following to say about the shows:

“I can’t believe it, but…fuck…we’re celebrating 20 years!! 20 years I’ve been in this band, ever since I was 16! It’s insane! As far as I remember, we’ve never had a release party, never celebrated anything officially. Well, now is the time, you hear?”
