Heritage

Opeth have long been hailed as "thinking man's metal": always innovative, pushing the boundaries of what rock and metal is to what it can be. With numerous critically acclaimed albums to their name there are few bands that have consistently outdone themselves as Opeth have. Never content to rely on a formula and never afraid to challenge their audience.

The group's tenth studio creation, 'Heritage', leaps ahead of the progressive transitions achieved between previous efforts, with driving force Mikael Åkerfeldt putting aside his usually heavy death-style singing in favour of a heartfelt and more folk laden, melodic vocal.

Produced by Opeth and Porcupine Tree's Steven Wilson, this is an album that requires multiple listens and will have audiophiles salivating at the warm and earthy tones that are captured within. Make no mistake, 'Hertiage' is a recording for the music enthusiast that cannot be defined by genre or trends.
