Abbey Rd Half Speed Masters. There are few bands that can or will match Sweden’s Opeth. Since forming in the tiny Stockholm suburb of Bandhagen in 1990, the Swedes have eclipsed convention, defiantly crushed the odds, and, most importantly, crafted 12 stunningly beautiful, intrinsically intense albums to become one of the best bands on the planet. Morningrise is the bands 2nd album, and delves deeper into the Progressive / blackened Deathmetal scene.
