Title: Opeth's "mellow" album
Review: is a very conscious effort to incorporate the influences of both metal and the progressive bands of the late sixties and early seventies (such as King Crimson) into a powerful noise. This is, to put it simply, a masterpiece.While long time Opeth fans will see this as a departure (for better or worse) from the death metal that is their metier, for newcomers such as myself this is either a brilliant stand alone album that ought to have been the album of the year, or the doorway into Opeth's past catelogue. In either case, Opeth is a force.Buy this CD and the live DVD "Lamentations" and hear and see for yourself.
