Has anyone seen this? I was just flipping through the latest issue (for some reason my brother's had a subscription to this rag for years). Anyway, there's a picture of the band and a small review for Deliverance.

"Opeth - Deliverance (3 stars)
Six albums along, the Swedish and Uruguayan death-metallurgists in Opeth create a shockingly beautiful thunder. Mikael Akerfeldt sounds as if his vocal cords might shred at any moment, growling inscrutable lines about downward spirals and withering flowers. His snarling, sinewy band continually expands the definition of what metal can be: punishing, contemplative, haggard and blissful."
 
I don't think Rolling stone counts that much to the metal scene...since it's a mainstream mag...but...hey..Opeth are arriving at the mainstream and still delivering bits of pure metal...hope they don't turn into cover boys like In Flames or whatever...(I sincerely don't think they will...but u never know...)
