FROM OPETH AND ROCK HARD MAGAZINE:
Rock Hard Magazine Germany will release a special live CD with their next issue containing The Lotus Eater among other tracks. Here's the official press release: 


ROCK HARD Magazine with world-exclusive cover mount Live CD for 30-year-anniversary 

The September 2013 issue of ROCK HARD magazine will include an exclusive Live CD (recorded at Rock Hard Festival) that will be not available in record stores. "Archives - Best Of 2007-2012" is the follow-up to many outstanding recordings ROCK HARD released with the magazine (Kreator, Opeth, Overkill, various compilations) and features some of the finest names in Metal. ROCK HARD publisher Holger Stratmann, responsible for the CD production: »I‘ve been trying to select a good mixture of classic and brandnew artists. The songs are all well-performed festival highlights and we have been trying very hard to get the best possible sound for our anniversary issue. Besides that, I can only hope the compilation will be considered "tasty."«
D.D. Verni (Overkill): »I think Rock Hard Festival is the best in the world. We have been to a lot of them and I really enjoy them all, but Rock Hard is just the right size, where it feels like a club show in a way. The fans that come there are always totally psyched and ready for a great show. They remind me in a way of New York sports fans. They are smart. Some festivals, you get a lot of curiosity seekers, or just people who want to party, and that´s cool. But at the Rock Hard festival, there are always real fans of music! And beer drinkers, of course. You can feel the buzz from the crowd, so I genuinely look forward to it each time we play.«
