Opeth kinda seem to switch back and forth between a albulm that uses alot of old-school guitar work, and one that doesn't. Still Life did, then Blackwater didn't, then Damnation did, then Deliverance didn't, then Ghost Reveries did, then Watershed did/didn't. I honestly kinda hope the next Opeth albulm is more modern and heavy, like Deliverance was. Not for the fact I like that better, but for the fact that what Opeth did on GR and Watershed is getting too redudant again, and I'de like the next effort to be a fresh slate or just something to surprise me, but not something thats just out there and weird. More Deliverance-like normal death metal would be the 'surprise' that would excite me currently .
