This week we bring one of the greatest Progressive Metal bands, the legendary Opeth! We spoke to the Uruguayan bass player Martin Mandez, second most constant member of the band, just behind the vocalist Mikael Åkerfeldt.

Mendez shared stories about when he left Uruguay to go to Sweden, how he joined Opeth, the bands compositions and the recording of the albums “Deliverance” and “Damnation”, which were made in just two months.

With a team of over 20 reporters and photographers, the Wikimetal newsroom brings you daily news, coverage, interviews, and other relevant content from the world of rock and metal.
