New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Roadrunner Records) Opeth guitarist Fredrik Åkesson was recently interviewed by Australia's Loudmag (https://bit.ly/10ghZla), and during the course of the conversation, revealed that the band are writing material for their next studio album!
According to Fredrik, the next record will go "in a somewhat different direction to Heritage. It won't be a step back, but it will be different. Maybe more intense in a way. You'll have to wait and see! I was in the studio today and put down my solos and I was very happy about it. The song I heard that Mikael [Åkerfeldt]wrote today sounds very cool. I think that's all I can say at this point!" He says the band is planning to re-enter the studio this fall, perhaps at the end of September. Stay tuned!
Opeth will be touring North America next month - find a show near you!
