Do you know the story of Opeth? If not, then here's a great book for you to read! If you do, then maybe it's time you had that history written out in a nice hardcover book. The book tells the story of the band from its inception to now and includes photos from throughout the band's career. It also features never-before-heard acoustic renditions of "Atonement" and "Demon of the Fall," which is more than enough reason you should buy it!
According to the book's site-
