i was amazed to see opeth in my paper today. on the back page of the "life & arts" section they have a "going out/ staying in" page that gives you ideas of things to do.

the real paper version had the album cover picture and was in the middle of the page.

Cool! Now I have to go dig up the office copy of the PI.

apparently they are going to "break into the metal mainstream with their driving black metal laced with tender interludes". Interesting. Billboard should stick to pop.

on a side note, the article below it mentions a sweet sounding stout beer by one of the local breweries. God i wish i could live in the northwest, it has to be microbrew heaven up there!

yes it is my friend. it just about makes up for the fact that we only get about 15 days a year that are over 80.

You say this as we prepare for yet another cold-front and more snow in the cascades!

Thanks for the link!

Yeah isn't awesome how dumb "professional" reviewers are for some of the bigger magazines and stuff? Kinda like how Dave Navarro was going to be a permanent stay with RHCP according to Rolling Stone I think it was, and how Weezer's Pinkerton was one of the worst albums of the year when it came out. (also according to Rolling Stone)

"Black metal"? Sigh.

When will the mainstream press learn to correctly identify metal bands.

I'm jealous of both of you. We've had extremely humid and 100+ degree days for about a week now. Stupid southeastern weather. When opeth came to myrtle beach here I don't think they liked the place much haha, too hot for those swedes. Though they did enjoy our crocodiles and ice cream

the weather here is so bad, if you told me it was december 25th today, i would believe you. but i would however take 30/40 over 90/100 any day.
