OPETH’s new record, has cast its spell on fans and critics alike. Here’s what a few are saying...

  • “Strap in for a magic carpet ride you won’t soon forget.” - BRAVEWORDS
  • “...Opeth are a band clearly in the throes of reinvention and re-conception...they are a band to be treasured” - METALSUCKS

  • “Sorceress is another outstanding outing that further solidifies Opeth’s nearly unrivaled legacy.” - POPMATTERS
  • “Sorceress is an expression of how much Opeth can accomplish without the strictures of extreme metal” - ROLLINGSTONE
