Taken from the album "The Last Will And Testament" (November 22nd, 2024) 🎧 Stream, get it here: https://opeth.rpm.link/lastwillYT “I have become quite interested in family, and the idea that blood is not always thicker than water,” Mikael Åkerfeldt explains. “I became interested in how family members can turn on each other. I saw an interview with this guy whose family had all turned against him, over the inheritance, so I wrote a song about that on the last record. The idea stuck with me, and then along came the TV show Succession, and I loved that series. That was in the back of my head too. It felt like an interesting topic that you could twist and turn a little bit.” 🎧 Stream, get it here: https://opeth.rpm.link/paragraph1YT ▶ FOLLOW @REIGNING PHOENIX MUSIC 🛒 EU: https://shopeu.reigningphoenixmusic.com 🛒 US: https://shopus.reigningphoenixmusic.com 🛒 UK: https://reigningphoenixmusic.omerch.com Web https://www.reigningphoenixmusic.com …...more

I lift my hand Draped in death, the howl of lore” This is the last will and testament of father (Hear, the last will and testament of father) #Opeth #RPM #ReigningPhoenixMusic
