 Topic: Opeth Announces New Album, "Watershed"

Did anyone manage to get a hold of the single that came with the Special Edition?
I did - Mellotron Heart. Fantastic single, wonderful album. And the 5.1 version is even more incredible.

That's what I thought at first, but I had people constantly telling me it was the actual car, the Lotus, but (OBVIOUSLY) in asmaller proportion.

^ I think "The Lotus Eater" is about Mikael's friend, yes, but he ate actual bugs.

Not exactly sure were to put this...
The listing of the extra tracks on this album is incorrect. Due to (I believe) copyright issues, Would? was taken off of the album. Also, if you preordered from The End Records, you probably have received your copy early. This may be the same for other sites, so if people start talking about it, it may not be because they got a leaked copy.
Just thought I'd point these things out, in case they hadn't been already.
And sorry... It's not a concept album. And, by the fact that there are already some reviews, I'm assuming you know this information. But the track listing, you may want to fix (IMO). Might throw some people off.
...But... the more I read the lyrics. It may be a concept album. Or, it may be based off of a similar theme. I just thought it wasn't because I'm pretty sure The Lotus Eater is based off of Mikael's friend, who would eat mini plastic Lotus cars. Maybe it's just the name that is dedicated to him.

OMG that cover is orgasmic!
This is so far my most anticipated release of '08. Hopefully the first of many.  |

hoping this one evolves from their latest sound, although incredible it was time they tried to add other elements to their music, nice one Akerfeldt!!!!
