Could be. Do remember your favorite guy Steve Wilson also took over production after a while.

And back on topic, I still hate growls. Damnation is the only Opeth album that my ears can stomach in whole.

lol, you shan't compare Orchid and Still Life. Such is folly.

I just did! |
You may have, but that doesn't render the comparison useful.
MAYH is amazing as well.

Whose logic determines the validity of my comparisons? Besides, I wasn't comparing Still life to Orchid, I was comparing Still Life to BWP and then I was comparing Orchid to BWP. |
My logic, infallible and pure. Just and almighty. Behold.

to the extreme! I didn't even see any posts by you. I really should attempt to review Opeth and Symph X and try to keep it objective.

I never said Wilson was a poor producer. I just hate his singing, piano playing, lyricism, songwriting, and vision (or lack thereof). As a producer, he's excellent! Those PT albums that were so full of garbage ideas I hated, they were damn well clean! :P

IE is what I am used to, and I much prefer it to the other internet surfers that I have tried. However, the switch from IE8 to IE9 seems to be a huge f**kup.

I won't enter this PT discussion because I'm not exactly sober and Alitare might become my arch rival.

This cover was discussed in another thread. It isn't the official cover. It was something that was created by somebody in photoshop.

I'm not holding any great hope for the new DT. I mean, did anyone other than Rob like BC&SL?
