Coil question?

[Eugenics]

Seing as how the Watershed SE cover is

and the original cover is a guy writing some shit.

could it be possible that coil is referring to coil stamps?

Maybe there is a concept here afterall? Too bad the booklet isnt going to tell us shit lyrically.

I just noticed it was written in french on the SE cover!

Don't have any clue.
Watershed song titles don't make any sense to me anyway, but they sound cool =)

Excellent argumentation Eugenics!!!

Yeah the stamp guy could really be a mix of all Opeth members.... Mendez' hair, Fredrik's beard....

The stamp on the SE cover has been perforated on all four sides, while a coil stamp is only perforated on two opposite sides (top and bottom or left and right).

Otherwise; interesting theory.

That is not too strange, since French has for a long time been considered the primary language within the European post office.

It's Mikrik Wibaxendez.

Who is that and how is he related to Opeth?

A reference to stamps....? Hmmm...

A lot of people complained about the special edition cover, but I'm thinking that the special edition packaging might be constructed like an envelope and that maybe it's going to be quite an imaginative piece of packaging on the whole. We'll see I guess.

Opeth always have a decent budget for SE. I dont worry about that cover, Im sure its gonna be cool

What does the 6867 mean?
02.06.2008 (June the second) is the date the album is sent to the stores. If you interpreted the date in an American-British way, it would be February the sixth. This could be the date the cover was designed. Double meaning?!?!?!?!?!?
And the 09 on the stamp tells that it's the ninth album. But I don't get the 6867....
