Commemorating the 25-year anniversary since the recording of their first EP, Sweden’s extreme musical deviants, Meshuggah, will release a concert DVD / 2CD set and Blue-ray, The Ophidian Trek, on September 26th in Europe, September 29th in the UK, and September 30th in North America via Nuclear Blast.

With visual footage shot in the US and Europe during The Ophidian Trek tour and festival footage from Wacken Open Air 2013 in Germany, the live audio was processed and edited by Meshuggah guitarist Fredrik Thordendal, mixed by Daniel Begstrand (Meshuggah, Dimmu Borgir, Behemoth), and mastered by Mats “Limpan” Lindfors (Opeth).

Nuclear Blast HQ gave Meshuggah a call to discuss the upcoming Blu-Ray/DVD release. Here's how it went down... watch the new trailer below:

Drummer Tomas Haake shares the following about the upcoming DVD: “We’re really stoked about this new Meshuggah live DVD! It’s been 4 years since the release of Alive and with the band celebrating 25 years, we felt that we just had to get another one of these puppies out there! Audio/Video was recorded during our European stretch of The Ophidian Trek tour, as well as at the Wacken open air festival - and we’re super proud of how it came out! For this one we used the extremely talented photographer Anthony Dubois for filming and editing etc., and he’s really done a stunning job with it! Hope you guys dig it and here’s to another 25!! (or maybe just a little less;-) )”
