Opeth's Upcoming Album


Jon Wiederhorn of the semi-decent mag Revolver asked Mikael Akerfeldt how the new album compares with Ghost Reveries, Mikael Responded: The music is much more complex. the metal parts are even faster and a lot more technical than the last one. It's really hard to play some of this stuff. I mean, I wrote it and even I have trouble playing parts of it. I think it's going to be hard for some people to get into. It's definitely not a commercial sounding record. the arrangements are exhausting. And it's much darker. Even the major patterns are very dark, while I think Ghost Reveries had some light.
This sounds like it could be the greatest metal album of all time next to Ghost Reveries of course.
