5 stars One of my favorite Opeth releases. A truly ass-breaking experience that caught me off-guard when I first listened it. As always, Opeth utilizes its musical knowledge to make songs very different from each other, while also being dynamic. The three +10 minute tracks in the album are the three best songs in my opinion, with the title track being their second best song to date. Bleak is a very catchy and brutal track that works very well and Harvest works as a great ballad. Dirge For November and The Funeral Potrait are tracks that feature mellow and heavy sections, the main riff in Funeral Potrait is great! Influences in this album include Porcupine Tree And Dream Theater.

Works very well when doing full listens, I recommend you this album if you don't find growls to be annoying.
