      I dont give give shit if there’s no metal in it. It’ll still be fucking sick. I’m expecting something like Damnation then. Which was a sick Opeth album.

    • If it sounds like a cross between Damnation and Stupid Dream, that would be magical – but I’m not counting on it. At least it won’t have any awful SW metal riffs no Hessiaen Peel transitions – though The Throat of Winter demonstrates that Mike is quite capable to making a soft song with terrible transitions.

      @frog – Throat of Winter’s a weird one, yeah. But I dig it quite a bit after a few listens. Not sure if the transitions are “bad”… unconventional, maybe? Or maybe just bad, who knows. Heh.
      Akerfeldt combined with Wilson’s songwriting and crafting, this really has the potential to be great.

    • The Throat of Winter is a bunch of undeveloped ideas completely slapped together. Whenever it starts to do something, it goes off in a different direction.
