They made a number of them, most are pretty old and near impossible to find. The more recent ones are nice too, I managed to snag one before they sold out. I wish they made them in smaller sizes though, they only came in L and XL.

I've got a bottle of Double Bastard sitting in my fridge, waiting for a special occasion. Also have a bottle of the 08.08.08 Vertical Epic that I'm gonna do a back to back to back tasting with, comparing against Duvel and Duvel Tripel Hop.

it's awesome that they're re-releasing this. i managed to get my hands on an original copy long ago, through someone on this board actually. definitely something that fans of older style katatonia owe it to themselves to listen to. if you haven't, seek it out. it's very much worth your while.

Got my copy of this from this forum years ago actually. Someone offered it for $15. Needless to say, I pounced on that deal pretty quickly...no plans to sell my copy anytime soon, either.

I'm definitely a big fan of Chimay, but I prefer Trappistes Rochefort when it comes to Trappist ales. Favorite beers? Unibroue's La Fin Du Monde, Sinebrychoff's Porter, and Duvel to name a few. Just recently tried Duvel for the first time...if anyone here likes beer and hasn't tried it, seek it...

Hour of Penance - The Vile Conception

Having seen them multiple times with Lopez and once with Axenrot, I can definitely say that in my opinion, Lopez fit in a lot better. That's to be expected, of course...Opeth built and honed much of their sound with him behind the kit, so certainly the nuances and subtleties of his playing...

Are the Still Day 7" vinyls actually worth $200 at this point? I got one a long, long time ago at a local metal shop for about 8 bucks. Funny.

another, still available. says it's produced in turkey. anyone know if these are legit?

Dunno if anyone caught this one. It's already over, but still an interesting find. Never seen one before. http://cgi.ebay.com/KATATONIA-BRAVE-MURDER-DAY-CASSETTE-TAPE-RARE-NEW_W0QQitemZ140167311888QQihZ004QQcategoryZ1600QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Though this continues to be a digression... @BlueSky: Never said you couldn't have your own opinion...I simply used an expression. @LifeDepraved: A third-rate ATG ripoff = about the quality level of your average decent metal band. Most importantly, I never said DH was the best band out...

Is it available online anywhere? I've been waiting for a mastered version of BMD to come out for years now, and the fact that it's finally been done has me excited to say the least. :rock:

Yeah...where can we get this? I would pick this up in a heartbeat if I knew where to look.

Even if it is an "either/or" situation with those songs, I'm thrilled with that list...especially the end. Wow. I can't wait. That's all I can say. And I don't think I could be more at odds with BlueSky...first badmouthing Darkest Hour and then opting to nix old-era songs from the setlist? Your...

As Katatonia's first-ever American tour looms over us, thoughts of what to expect have begun to creep into this fan's mind. With the release of TGCD, Katatonia's sound has of course continued in its steady evolution and this has me wondering. The band has traditionally encored with Murder in the...
