The official Opeth thread v. Bring on the new album!

[?]

I don't see Martin Lopez' name on the credits. I thought I read earlier on this thread that Martin played drums on two tracks.

Someone just edited the Wikipedia page for the album without any official source. However, Steven Wilson does appear on the album, as he's credited for backing vocals in the booklet.

The audio quality of the album deserves special praise. Hardly any compression, very dynamic. Why can't DT albums sound like that

I see that it's available on HDTracks too.

OK i'm off the loop...why two threads?

People started discussing a leak of the album in this thread while a lot of other people were waiting for the release of the album and didn't want any spoilers. That's what the other thread was for: spoiler-free Opeth discussion.

Just finished my first listen to the album. It's really great! Can't say anything else really, needs more listens.

I just got back with my copy, will listen to it soon. I liked the "Eternal Rains..." single, though I have not tried out the rest. Looking forward to it.

OK, proceed to the other thread to continue discussion!
