OPETH Begin Recording New Album
November 1, 2007, 16 years ago
OPETH leader Mikael Åkerfeldt has issued the following update:
"On October 28th at 9:20 AM my wife gave birth to our second daughter, Mirjam Ebba Maria Åkerfeldt. She is so beautiful, just looking at her brings me to tears!Who'd known that I, a bum from the Stockholm suburbs would be the father of 2 beautiful daughters? Yes guys! I am happy!
On top of that the album is now written and the demos sound fantastic! We will start recording it tomorrow actually! I don't wanna say too much but.... gee, it is so fucking good!! If I may say so myself.... Expected "delivery date" on this one is sometime in April/May 08.
On top of that (2)... my friends at PRS guitars and Laney decided to give me some early Christmas gifts. I had a stunning PRS Hollowbody II delivered and it's just awesome! Real ear and eye candy! And from Laney I got the new Lionheart mini stack which sounds beyond fantastic! That rig will be used quite a lot in the studio I'm sure!
Yes, you can probably say the last few days have been pretty fucking decent!
Cheers guys!
Mike."
