07.26.11 | - It does NOT sound like Damnation 2.0
- Fredrik (I'm assuming it was him) has an awesome solo at the end of the song
- The drumming is great too, as are the keyboards
- The song is 6:30, or around that |

07.26.11 | Just heard it myself. Awesome indeed. Ax is a beast here. |

07.26.11 | Just finished listening... wtf, very different. For a 6:40 song it's got a lot to it and its complete. I can breathe a sigh of relief |

enjoy. |
AngelofDeath
07.26.11 | Yeah, his clean vocals are sublime here. Made much of the song. I initially assumed he was bluffing about this album not being heavy, but perhaps I was mistaken. I love old prog and psychedelic rock, so I can't say it's any sort of disappointment to hear them take this direction. Quite the contrary, really. |
bowlofsoup
07.26.11 | The song was really good. |
Maniac!
07.26.11 | This is great. Glad they didn't try to recycle themselves again |
MarvellousG
07.26.11 | I absolutely love it, it's like a continuation of Hex Omega in terms of some of the melodies and chord progressions, which is fine by me. |
AngelofDeath
07.26.11 | Thought the same thing. |
Maniac!
07.26.11 | After Watershed I lost hope in the band, glad to be proven wrong. |
Deviant.
07.26.11 | Really still don't understand what everyone was worrying about. Sure when a loved band pulls out the "new angle" card or whatever I guess there's some cause for concern but it's not like Opeth hasn't done this before. Not so much the full old school prog angle, but they've whistled the more contemplative tune before and I never really heard many people complaining about that |
Maniac!
07.26.11 | I wasn't worried about the new angle. I was worried about them not releasing another shitty album like Watershed. |
AngelofDeath
07.26.11 | Watershed is pretty awesome, though. |
Maniac!
07.26.11 | Except it sucked, good sir. |
Crysis
07.26.11 | at work and i can't listen god dammit |
fsharptrit0ne

Gmork89
07.26.11 | Listening now |
InAbsentia
07.26.11 | I'm going to avoid listening to it until the album comes out. But hearing it's good makes me relieved.

Acanthus
07.26.11 | Failing to see the hype, they've lost me with their lack of heavy tracks. |
tkxxx7
07.26.11 | stop being a lil pussy |
Acanthus
07.26.11 | Won't happen sir, as the band has been a miss for me from day one (minus a track or two). |
fsharptrit0ne
07.26.11 | Did you listen to this Acan? |
Acanthus
07.26.11 | Yup, though I'm not surprised at my dislike; some of my favorite Opeth moments were the growls and heavy guitars. |
killrobotmusic
07.26.11 | never really listened to this band, song is pretty good though... i like the atmospheric parts |
G3N3R1C
07.26.11 | i've always loved opeth for their progressive qualities, not their DM qualities. (i have Damnation at a 5 ffs.) so naturally, i love this. |
fsharptrit0ne
07.26.11 | ahh okay, well can't help you there than |
RangerTaffles
07.26.11 | Well well, this is a pleasant surprise. |
Pyosisified
07.26.11 | All of the fans of Opeth who appreciated their progressive element are rejoicing, all of the faggy depressed metal kids are crying in the corner wiping the mascara off their faces. |
Acanthus
07.26.11 | Lol I haven't put mascara on yet, just got out of the shower. |
Pyosisified
07.26.11 | h give me a break. I just looked on your profile out of curiosity and saw you've uploaded some rap song/s that sound like every fucking rapper out there. You are the furthest away possible from being able to criticise Opeth on selling out and sounding the same every song - which is hilariously absurd in itself. |
Acanthus
07.26.11 | Hahahaha me? Rap? You're surely joking/talking about someone else. |
Pyosisified
07.26.11 | This is the same rehashed shit. All of the songs sound the same now, lol. And now it's even more pretentious. LOL Roadrunner records. Hope they tour with Slipknot! lolol, Opeth sooooooold out |
alachlahol
07.26.11 | pyo is most likely copy pasting youtube comments |
Acanthus
07.26.11 | Yeah assumed as much after the Roadrunner one. |
Lambda
07.26.11 | After hearing this, I'm glad I pre-ordered the album |
