OPETH will be the band who made the sky cry at Sonisphere UK for us here at Roadrunner UK HQ. The band played a sublime set and even got the crowd moshing to silence. That magic moment can be seen at THIS LOCATION. The set was streamed on the festival’s website and some of that footage is now online and can be found at the below links:
There is also an interview from Sonisphere with Martin Mendez including some great photos,
all of which can be found below:
