Xanthochroid Releases a Cover of Opeth's Harvest

The latest release from Erthe and Axen Records: Xanthochroid's Black Metal version of Opeth's classic acoustic masterpeice "Harvest".

A statement from Xanthochroid:
"Today we give Opeth's classic acoustic masterpiece the Black Metal treatment. In honor of one of the bands who has influenced us most profoundly, we bring you a glimpse into Opeth's dreary world of desolate hopes and lost dreams. Featuring our former drummer Sean Culver as the protagonist; and directed by our own guitarist Brent Vallefuoco. We hope you enjoy watching this as much as we enjoyed making it."

Long live Xanthochroid, long live the king! “Blessed He With Boils” as an Album Of The Month.

Additional notes
Opeth have never distributed any demo. Their only official recording prior to "Orchid" is a promo titled "Apostle in Triumph" that was only sent to labels, which later leaked to the public. Do not add more demos! -The name Opeth was taken from the novel Sunbird by author Wilbur Smith, and was originally spelled Opet (without the h). In the book, Opet is the name of the location for an ancient empire which translates to City of the Moon.
