Swedish progressive metal legends OPETH return with a powerful new performance video for “§7,” a key track from their critically acclaimed album The Last Will and Testament.
Mikael Åkerfeldt comments, “That track was scary to play live at first. Most of our songs are challenging, I suppose, and this one is no exception. I believe we all love playing this one. There are a myriad of details that could go wrong though, but it’s fun. It keeps you on your toes. And of course, then there’s Ian Anderson’s narrations, which is the only thing in our set that isn’t 'live'. Since we don’t play to a click-track, it’s dragging or pushing depending on the tempo of the evening. Again, it’s fun and I love the unforeseeable character of this song in a live setting. That’s a bit odd since I normally want to feel completely secure and really know what I’m doing. I generally don’t like surprises on stage.”
Watch the performance video for “§7” now, listen to The Last Will and Testament on all major platforms, and catch Opeth live where tickets remain available.
