Opeth, Opeth and a little splash of Opeth



It seems that Mikael Åkerfeldt and the lads aren't interested in a few festival dates this year. This summer sees them hitting not 2, not 3, not even 6 festivals. In total, so far, they are hitting 15 festivals around Europe. Starting in Germany and ending in the good old UK. I will keep you posted if they get bored and add more dates ;)

Jun. 06 - Rock Am Ring - Germany
Jun. 07 - Rock Im Park - Germany
Jun. 21 - Field of Rock - Biddinghuiser - Holland
Jun. 22 - Hellfest - Clisson - France
Jun. 26 - Peace and Love - Borlange - Sweden
Jun. 27 - Metal Town - Gothenburg - Sweden
Jun. 29 - Graspop - Desselt - Belgium
Jul. 05 - Ruis Rock - Turku - Finland
Jul. 06 - Metalcamp - Julisch Alps - Slovakia
Jul. 09 - Rock Wave - Athens - Greece
Jul. 12 - Milan Evolution Festival - Italy
Aug. 01 - Wacken Open Air - Wacken - Germany
Aug. 03 - Ankkarock - Helsinki - Finland
Aug. 16 - Metal Heart Festival - Lillehammer - Norway
Aug. 17 - Bloodstock Open Air - Catton Hall Derby - UK

These dates will no doubt tie in with the release of Watershed, which is due out via Roadrunner Records on June 3rd (UK) and June 2nd (Internationally). Recorded in the band's native Sweden it has been produced by Åkerfeldt and Jens Bogren.

Watershed track listing:
01. Coil
02. Heir Apparent
03. The Lotus Eater
04. Burden
05. Porcelain Heart
06. Hessian Peel
07. Hex Omega

And don't forget that they're playing Defenders Of The Faith in April with Arch Enemy, DevilDriver and 3 Inches Of Blood! Hell. Yes.
