A couple of weeks ago, we heard Opeth tease a new song called 'Heart At Hand' as part of a trailer for an upcoming European tour.
But now we've got the full thing, baby, and it's really good. It's the first taste of their upcoming album In Cauda Venenum, which has now been revealed to have a release date of September 27.
It's not the easiest of tasks to put into words how an Opeth song sounds, but as demonstrated masters of their craft, fans should be pretty pleased with this galloping, winding prog jam which explodes with dynamic heaviness:
Opeth are also set to bring their incredible live show down to Australia in December, tickets for which you can buy here.
