I want to see all of those songs live. That's awesome, man. Glad to see they are opening with Last Song Before the Fade, that sounds like a great way to start a set.

Last Song Before The Fade was indeed an awesome opener. On the current tour (at least when I saw them in NYC last April), they had an eerie ambient piece (it reminded me of the Frank Default remix of Hypnone) with an audio samples of what sounds like a news reporter playing through the PA as the band walk on stage one by one which goes straight into the piano intro to Last Song and it was awesome to watch to say the least and gave me the chills.

Iirc, that's what they opened with when I saw them in March as well. Caspian played before them, and I was blown away. I listen to a bit of Post Rock, but have never seen any Post Rock band live before them, and they sounded a lot heavier live than I thought they would.

Katatonia is one of my favourite bands ever yet I still haven't made it all the way through this album. It's so long and boring and devoid of good riffs. Losing the guitarist broke this band imo

Nah they still rule as long as Anders is in the band imo, I used to feel the same but you have to at least listen to Passer if you haven't.

I really need to buckle down soon and digest this album properly (I owe it to the band), but at this point it just feels like homework.

They still have the best non-tool tool riffs.

I will try. But every time I put this on within 10 minutes I wish I was listening to any other Katatonia album, it's so anemic. What are the highlights on this btw, maybe I will start there.

Takeover, Serein, Serac, last song before the fade, shifts, the night subscriber, and passer. Those are my favorites.

Takeover gets better with every listen. It's definitely become my favorite Katatonia album opener.

Won't dethrone the NITND opener for me, but still my favourite song here.
