Die schwedischen Death Progger von OPETH haben uns ihr neues Studioalbum “The Last Will And Testament“ für den 11. Oktober in Aussicht gestellt und präsentieren heute nach dem ersten , mächtig komplexen Track `§1` die nicht minder interessante, aber deutlich griffigere, nächste Auskopplung `§3`.

Lyrics:

All was still
(When) I broke the seal
In dwindling Winter morning shades
I knew a ransom must be paid out

Apostasy, a curse on me?
The weaker vessel secure under (the) grace of God
Matrimonial locks, skeleton key

She (would) pursue my gaze on her
A dance within a masquerade
The servants ransom culled and laid out

From hereditary cornucopia

This dire desire for wealth
The lure of a prosperous well

( I would vow)
”The disfigured child won’t die young
The hearts of us all she has won
But you must leave here…”

Silent curtsy, tearful bliss
”God bless you”
”Carnal shame, a secret treaty
The lovers bond”
