Pale Communion has established itself in my mind as the album of the year for me. As much as I would like Opeth to put out another 'death metal' album, PC just does everything right. It does everything right that Heritage failed in (except I really like Folklore). The PC material they played at the show was just jaw-dropping awesome. Adding to that, 'Faith In Others' continues to be my favorite song of the year. It has that King Crimson 'Epitaph' beauty to it, without copying it. Together with PC's beautiful production and dynamic (non) mastered production.. I haven't heard anything else this year that can compete with this one. I really, really like the place where Opeth is in right now. Especially considering that they're really nailing the old stuff this tour as well. WOW. Album of the year, show of the year, band of the year.

Pale Communion and Devin Townsend's Casualties of Cool are the best sounding albums I've heard this year. We need more albums that sound like this.

SO much concurrence. Well, except for album and band of the year; Devy takes the cake with ease for that one in my ears. But PC is up there, no doubt. I still spin it every few nights.Quote from: me7 on November 14, 2014, 01:03:59 AMQuote from: PixelDream on November 13, 2014, 08:10:12 PMTogether with PC's beautiful production and dynamic (non) mastered productionThe album's sound doesn't get enough praise.

Even though they might not musically be my absolute favorite from either artist, the music is still fantastic, but it's the sound that truly puts them above and beyond. Truly masterful production and I'm really, honestly scared that these guys are gonna ruin some other bands for me because I'm so used to their sound now that a lot of other music sounds like white noise in comparison (clearly an exaggeration).
Yeah. One thing they never fuck around on is their live sound.
out of curiosity, did anyone manage to get a replacement bluray from the defective first batch? every time i tried to enter my code it said it was already used since i had already downloaded the bonus track. anyone have luck another way?
Winger would be better!
Oh Jackie, always jumping to the most homoerotic possibility.
I've purchased Watershed today. I'm stoked, it's my first Opeth album
that's kind of terrifying.
Hef is right on all things. Except for when I disagree with him. In which case he's probably still right.
I...might pay to hear that.

Only a prog fan would try to measure how much they enjoy a song by an equation.
My anime can beat up your anime.
Another question: who's playing first, Opeth or In Flames? Has it been different from night to night?
In terms of merch, Opeth had shirts, sweatshirt, wristband, turntable slipmat, and signed copies of heritage and pale communion.
Zydar is my new hero. I just laughed so hard I nearly shat.
