"The Roundhouse concert will always be a very memorable gig for us for many

reasons, but most importantly it caught the band at the peak of the "Ghost

Reveries" tour. I must say we're quite tight after 18 odd months on the road

supporting the record. I'm extremely pleased we got it documented and I hope

it will please our beloved fans as well. As an extra bonus we've decided to

collaborate with one of our past labels for this release, the legendary

Peaceville Records. Here's a toast to Hammy and Lisa for helping us back in

the day as well as to the new team for preserving this pleasurable memory

for today's music lovers as well as for generations to come." – Mikael

Škerfeldt

‘The Roundhouse Tapes' contains a captivating Opeth performance from the

Camden Roundhouse, London, UK, on November 9th, 2006 (a gig which also

featured Goth metal legends Paradise Lost), and sees the band in

scintillating form churning out a selection of classics from their

illustrious career. You know what to expect from Opeth: unrivalled

composition; seamless progressive dynamics and boundless atmosphere from the

mellow to the incredibly heavy, all sealed with the unmistakable vocal

presence of mainman Mikael Škerfeldt.

Since their formation in 1990 in Sweden, Opeth has risen to the forefront of

the metal world over the years; bringing many aspects of progressive

rock/metal to a whole new audience by combining soft acoustic ambience with

complex, melodic & heavy guitar often familiar to forms of death/black

metal, perfectly concocted into a completely peerless sound. A constant

factor of their success is that the band have never been afraid to

experiment with their song-writing ever since their debut album, ‘Orchid',

in 1994, all the while taking us through some truly magical & hypnotic

soundscapes over the years.
