a good CD, but the other two Katatonia albums that I've listened to (Brave Murder Day and Dance of December Souls) are just 3.5 albums for me. Same with Viva Emptiness. the band just doesn't give me that overall 'excellent' feeling.

Solid work, certainly not their best. For "newbies" get "Last Fair Deal Gone Down." It's a much better album. Has a "porcupine tree" buzz to it.

the reason opeth and kat were being compared was because akerfeldt did the vocals for their first album

That still doesn't make them similar. Akerfeldt did vocals for Bloodbath, and they aren't comparable to Opeth.

YEah, they're friends and have worked together a lot, it doesn't necessarily mean the main band of one is similar to the band of the other.

More sound wise. Towards the middle-end it felt a bit samey, but not in a bad way. I still feel it's an excellent album.



And I knew you were going to be the one commenting on my comment.

It might be expected of you, he who has a certain avatar that bears a striking resemblance to some album.



Btw, it was actually also less doomy and depressing that I expected. Wasn't exactly happy, but still.
