Still a bit hard to read, so I'll just repost.

The little font appear when you copy & paste a Facebook status on PA - I don't know any way to counter this.

And the quote has already been posted in the PT Thread Wink

yknow a while back Mikael said something along the lines of the new album featuring some 'fusion' stuff or whatever, and it got me interested. I lost interest in them and most metal bands years ago after GR came out (though i still think it's their best album) so I may check this out.

I forsee it being less metal, more in the Watershed type. This makes me really excited, although I think the jazzier tendencies Opeth have always shown suited Lopez's drumming moreso than Axe. But I'm still keen for it.

Jesus, SW is crazy. Some may not like his work or approach, but I do, and I see:

-Opeth
-Project with Mikael
-Solo album
-Bass Communion
-Blackfield

...all of which to me are at least "good" projects. Easily the busiest man in progressive rock.

^ plus the remixing, which is such a time-consuming and neuron-killing activity.

Exactly there with you. I can't see how Axe's machine-precision drumming would suit a more fusion oriented style.
But then Opeth have surprised me more then once already. Let's wait and see Smile

i wish Lopez would work as their studio drummer. That would be awesome, since it never seemed like he wanted to quit when he did.

Quote We can exclusively reveal that the new Opeth album will be titled 'HERITAGE'. The record is due for release through Roadrunner Records in September. More details to follow soon.

September, that's not too far away anymore Smile

I'm a bit pessimistic though, Opeth has become a band that releases more live albums now then new material, which isn't a good sign generally.

AWWWW HELL YEAH.
Definitely looking forward to this after Watershed, which I love.


@Bonnek: I have to disagree, they've only got 3 live DVD's which is much less than a ton of other bands.

I loved Watershed, though now that time has passed I probably think Ghost Reveries is their best. Definitely stoked, will buy on release date or soon thereafter. What a friggin year for prog!!!
You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.
