Me too. And I'd like to hear all the six instrumental versions too, which come with the special edition Blu Ray.

I just had a peek listen into it on Spotify and it's great. They keep their promises insofar as it is clearly different from both Opeth and Porcupine Tree: Its much more ambient (almost no drums), best description is probably that it sounds like No-Man, but much darker.
I can't wait to have this one included on PA. The other supergroup earlier this year Flying Colors was a disappointment, however this one delivered in spades. Kudos to Steven and Mikael!

Half (1-3-5 songs) are good, the other half are too ambient for my taste.

I had great expectations for this one but until now I have to say I am a bit disappointed. Too ambient and, frankly, quite boring. It has a nice atmosphere to it but nothing really happens and atmosphere is pretty much everything there is. It's not that I was expecting something in the line of Opeth or PT, far from it, and god knows I listen to some pretty weird stuff from the 70s so it's not like I am not ready to accept something different, but this... I don't know. Of the three albums they say form a sort of trilogy, Grace for drowning is somewhat different from the others and easily the best one. Heritage looked to me like it was a sort of work in progress but, listening to this one, it now seems Akerfeldt wanted to make exactly that album. To my eyes, it has the same flaws this one has: mainly atmospheric, not enough ideas or not nearly developed enough, distructured, or better, lacking focus. It might grow with time... best song, until now, Hag.

I've only listened to it once since I got it, but for now, I'd say the last track - Ljudet Innan. I love the atmosphere of that track and Mikael's vocals are very nice.

Lock Howl struck me the most on 1st listen. Reminded me of some Nordic hero riding horseback proudly across the damp plains. I'm trying to remember the name of that one-off project by guys from Anekdoten and Landberk way back when... Kind of like that.

Drag Ropes first and then Lock Howl.
But overall it's pretty boring. Worst of both worlds. A few cool sections but alot of pretty basic soundtrack styled music.

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.

One full listen, and the title track has stuck out to me the most. But I need to listen a few more times.

I love Lock Howl. And if you can possibly get this on vinyl DO IT, it is absolutely *stunning*!
