Katatonia will film the London date of their Unplugged & Reworked Tour for a DVD release.
The Swedish metallers will head to Union Chapel on May 16 to perform reimagined versions of songs from 'Dethroned and Uncrowned' as well as cuts from their back catalogue.
Firm plans for the live release are yet to be confirmed, but the DVD is slated to arrive later this year through Kscope. Anders Nyström, the band's guitarist, said:
"This has been a different tour. I thought it was gonna be good, but it was better. Out with the distortion, the headbanging and the explosive lights, in with the acoustic guitars, chairs and the candles. Not permanently, just momentarily. It’s like having a guest chef cooking the menu this week, gotta enjoy it while it lasts, right?
"For the first time ever, we've been able to play some old beautiful churches and enjoy their sacred aesthetics and acoustics much to our advantage. Appropriately we also heard your prayers from near and afar and its now a fact the tour will include a DVD recording of the Union Chapel show in London. Come Friday, we will also have the honor to feature a very special guest too that will return the crown to the king."
Following the London show, Katatonia will also play one night at Leeds' Brudenell Social club.
Katatonia Upcoming Tour Dates are as follows:
Fri May 16 2014 - LONDON Union Chapel
Sat May 17 2014 - LEEDS Brudenell Social Club
