Opeth

More than three decades into their career, Opeth have trained their admirers to expect the unexpected. But even by their own standards, the Swedish progressive titans have conjured something extraordinary this time around. The band’s 14thstudio exploration, »The last Will and Testament«, is the darkest and heaviest record they have made in decades, it is also the most fearlessly progressive. A concept album recountingthe reading of one recently deceased man’s willto an audience of his surviving family members, it brims with haunting melodrama, shocking revelations and some of the wildest and most unpredictable music that songwriter and frontman Mikael Åkerfeldt has ever written.
