Another festival appearance from one of my favorite bands, this time on tour to promote the twin albums Deliverance and Damnation. The two were supposed to be released as a double CD but Opeth's record label would not agree to that plan. The label actually told the band it would not give them funding for the recording of Damnation. Label execs didn't think a CD from Opeth without Death Metal Vocals in the songs would sell. All the tracks on Damnation were of the melodic type Opeth would include on their otherwise very metal albums. The band recorded both albums at the same time , then released Deliverance first. Damnation was released after the Deliverence Tour, the Damnation Tour would feature only Opeth's melodic material.
