Description

Limited and noble 12’ box edition with embossed foil printed cover that contains the Opus Diaboli dvd, the double cd with the recording of the 13 Anniversary concert, a photobook containing flyers and unreleased photos (mostly off stage) from the past 13 years and a double vinyl featuring the 13 anniversary concert Opus Diaboli is a commemoration of Watain s 13 year Anniversary and the first ever dvd documentation of the Swedish Black Metal legends. A visual and audio documentation of their ceremonial concert performance in Stockholm and the long years of physical, intellectual and spiritual work leading up to it. An epic dvd/2cd 90 minute journey into the forbidden realms of wildhearted Satanic Metal and a manifest of a unique band that truly have chosen a path that few have ever dared to tread upon. Opus Diaboli was directed by Johan Baath and Watain. This movie was first meant to be the recording of our 13 Year Anniversary concert, but as everything with Watain it took on a life on its own and became one of our most ambitious projects to date. It is a very personal and emotional piece of work and certainly not for the faint at heart. But for those who wish to explore the glimmering abyss of Watain further, this will be a rewarding release for sure. This is the first release on the band's own label His Master's Noise, a name originating from Bathory's mastermind Quorthon who had it in mind for his own label back in the early 1980s.
