I haven’t heard the as of yet unreleased Opeth album “Ghost Reveries.” However, if I had heard it, I might tell you how incredibly spectacular it is. I might tell you how fantastic the vocals are, and how the clean vocals are more refined and precise yet portray raw emotion like no other Opeth CD. I might also tell you that you can hear a lot of classic rock influence in this album from the likes of Led Zeppelin, The Doors, etc. I might even tell you that track two, “The Baying of the Hounds,” is ten minutes and forty-one seconds of pure bliss. I might tell you these things… but I won’t because the album will not be released until August 30th, 2005. Until then, you’ll just have to take my word for it… er, not that I would know… because I definitely haven’t heard the album yet. Ummm… I gotta go.
Bryan… I couldn’t have said it any better myself.
