Opeth - Video Premiere for 'The Devil's Orchard'


Swedish progressive Death Metal band Opeth just kicked off a massive North American tour with fellow Swedish countrymen Katatonia. After performing at the legendary Webster Hall (Formerly The Ritz) in New York City for two nights in a row, the band has unleashed a video for their first single 'The Devil's Orchard', taken from their 10th studio album titled "Heritage", which was released on September 20 (via Roadrunner Records).

Directed by the award-winning New York City-based photographer Phil Mucci, who had previously directed KORN's video for 'Oildale', the video will definitely captivate the eyesight of the legions of Opeth fans all over the world.
