stop talking about the new album!!
I will lose my willpower too if all you guys discuss it all the time :(

but it will be worth the wait :D

Just got it. I'm listening to Ghost of Perdition right now. About 6 minutes in and I'm enjoying it a lot. :)

[QUOTE=Refl]Theres not enough growling on the album.

I find myself yearning for Mikael to just scream more in this album, especially since some of the music is so evil sounding.[/QUOTE]

Really? Quite a bit of growling on "Ghost of Perdition," at least.

I'm still fighting the urge. MUST....RESIST!!!!.....MUST.....AAAAH!

I couldnt' resist, I downloaded the leak, and from what I've heard so far, I like it a lot, as someone said, its very different from their previous work, but its great nonetheless, I'll be buying it the first day it comes out..

I saw them live in Vancouver last night (Sounds of the Underground), and they kicked ***, they played the Grand Conjuration, its just too bad that the set was so **** short, I hope they roll through town again for their own tour.

I won't download :mad::p, I must resist.
luckily I'll be away for one week, so I have no internet conncetion and can't be tempted to download it.

Wow, Mikael changed his clean singing style on Baying of the hounds (That's how far I'm into the album so far), it's awesome.. And his growl is.. Deeper? Than usual.. I think.. The man with the best growl ever, just made it better

Is anyone else obsessed with the acoustic/clean singing break in Ghost of Perdition? From around 2:50-4:07....*drools*

Still resisting the urge.

Whole album leaked?

Ah crap, now I have to resist downloading it... and I have like NO willpower.
BUT I WILL NOT DOWNLOAD IT!

Must....wait....

You can do it! Don't worry, you have your support in me. I'm in the same boat, but I can wait it out until the 30th. Do it for the good of Opeth!

You can do!.. I believe in you!..

I couldn't though

Aye, it helps that at the moment I know I have the money to buy it when it does come out, and that for the two weeks prior to release I'll be on holiday so won't be able to even consider downloading it.

And it's Opeth, a band that deserves my money.

downloading it won't hurt Opeth in anyway..

Shut up! We who will not download must resist!

What is the release date for the new album?

On a random note, I frigging love the piano part at the end of Leper Affinity :)

Never!

The release is set for August 30th.

Be there or be dead.

And i'm missing the Opeth gig on sept 6 which i'm killing myself for.

Tough.

Where is the gig at?

That is ages away, I thought it would be really close seeing that there is a leak out. What has been said about the new album because I know nothing about this album? Also, don't worry, I'll be there ;)

It will be very different from previous efforts...there are two songs available, scroll back a few pages on this thread...Ghost of Perdition is amazing....The Grand Conjuration is awesome if you ask me, some don't like it....oh, and the Travelocity gnome rules. About all that is known about the album from those who haven't downloaded it yet....

I agree in The Grand Conjuration being great. But those of you who don't like it won't be dissapointed

I heard there's a leak out. I am just hoping you guys won't talk about it, or else I'm gonna have to stop coming to this thread until August 30th...lol

Too late, haha

[QUOTE=Knifeboy]Too late, haha[/QUOTE]

well I've heard two songs, and that's enough for me..

I've just listened to it straight through.......I don't know what to say. I have been blown away.......all I'll say is, as the album draws to a close, Isolation Years is how to end an album.
Oh, and Beneath The Mire has to be one of the coolest songs I've ever heard.

it leached. i have the album. on aug 30th im planing on buying it though. true fans wont rip off the artist.

as a true fan I'm aiting till august 30th :cool:

but I want it so bad :(
