so who can't wait till august 30th for world wide release?

yeh im s***ting my pants in anticipation, theres already a bloody topic on this band.

I'll "Acquire" a copy of this album, not a huge fan but have some good songs.

Most boring band live though.

^^^ f*** off German (you know they're my fav band) :D

Don't forget to preorder (I've already got a slot for it in my CD rack). I'm also hoping there's another Aussie tour support the album.

If there is bassman, i'll be sure to let you know. ;)

ps. Bleak is an awesome song.

I find the singers voice a bit monotonal but that just me.

Heard their new song last night on full metal racket..It was cool, but thought it was a little bland.. will have to give it another listen might change my mind with next listen.

If you think Mikes voice isn't that flash, listen to Hours of Wealth, (when the album comes out of course), his voice shines! He's an amazing singer, and there is no way they are a boring band. live they go off, they have so much core ass crowd participation, and everyone who likes opeth and goes to their shows, is a huge fan.

Dont worry Bassman, they'll be back for their Ghost Reveries tour!

I'm sure they appeal to a huge group of people. But when i attended their last concert when they were here, i was bored out of my mind.

They are talented band, but just a tad too slow for me.

I'll check out that song.
