Damnation (20th Anniversary Edition) (Vinyl)
To mark the 20th anniversary of Opeth's ground-breaking 2003 album âDamnationâ, a special vinyl re-issue project has been meticulously crafted to pay homage to a pivotal and trailblazing moment in the bandâs illustrious history. Originally recorded in the serenity of Ă kerfeltâs native Sweden, with additional production from Porcupine Treeâs Steven Wilson, the album acclaimed by fans and critics alike has since received a re-mix and master in 2015, pressed to vinyl on a double LP together with the dichotomous âDeliveranceâ.
A record that represents a paradigm shift in the bandâs approach to composition, seeing them side-line their metal roots from the forefront of their arsenal. Instead replacing it with an additional insight into ambience, atmospherics, and progressive rock, this together with Ă kerfeldts signature lyricality and musicianship creates a unique record of ethereal beauty and longing, and one which remains top of mind for many Opeth fans.
This 20th Anniversary version sees the 2015 re-mix and remaster pressed to standard black vinyl.
