Sweden’s OPETH and Jens Bogren have finished the recording and mixing of the group’s latest opus, “Ghost Reveries”. The album was mastered on Thursday (June 16) at the Cutting Room facilities in Stockholm. The total running time will be around 65 minutes.

The two released tracks, Ghost of Perdition and The Grand Conjuration sound promising.

The album will be for sale on my birthday :-) , the 30th of August.

And they will perform it during their Europian tour, which I`ll visit on the 11th of September in the 013 in Tilburg.

I`m thrilled.

I’m looking forward to the performance even more, for Opeth really seems to be a great live band. I just bought their Lamentations DVD, which was quite amazing.
